Extruder head finishing location

Hey there guys, Just wanted to ask about the extruder head and where it finishes after a print. 

I have a MK3S+ in a enclosure that has a spool holder on the left hand side wall, and in the end of a print I find that the extruder head will finish, in that left hand side and I have a very close margin to get spools in and out.

Is there a setting or a way of making the head end up at the middle of the print bed for example?

Thanks

@samurai,

I see you've been waiting a while for this so you may have already found your answer elsewhere.  In case you haven't...

To change the "park" position for your printer find the line that looks something like this

"G1 X242 Y211 F10200 ; park"

in the 'Printers' tab - "End G-code" in PrusaSlicer (you'll have to make the change for each printer you've defined).

Just change the X and Y values to reflect the position you wish to "park" the printhead (X) and bed (Y) in and save the printer as a custom printer.  Slice your models using this printer and the printer will park itself as directed at the end of the print.

Regards,

Steve
