Slic3r PE extruder wipe?
Hi guys, just starting to try and transition to Slic3r PE from Prusa Control, and my prints haven't been doing that I think is called a nozzle wipe like they do when I export gcode from Prusa Control. Would anyone know how to enable this feature in Slic3r PE?
Side question that doesn't matter as much - when I hit print from SD on the gcode I exported from Slic3r PE, the nozzle didn't seem to want to heat up, it was saying nozzle temp = 0. I manually tuned it to 215 but I just thought that was very odd, and combined with the lack of nozzle wipe I didn't notice these facts early enough and had to stop ~30s in when it all went to hell haha. Luckily I know to stick around and look for this kind of stuff! Anyway, for the second print of this part I just pre-heated to 215 and hit go, but I still don't know how to add the nozzle wipe that Prusa Control does...
Re: Slic3r PE extruder wipe?
If you mean the left-to-right prime line that prints before every job, that's done in start gcode. Look at your printer settings. Given that temps are usually also set by the same gcode, is it possible yours is missing or damaged?
