Auto Shutdown
I have an i3 I got about 6 months ago, assembled in factory. How do I get it to auto shutdown after a print? I added M81 in the custom gcode, of a print, but it didn't work. What do I need to change?

Hi boethos3,
for automatic shutdown to work, you need a power supply that will auto shutdown.
the Prusa power supply does not have this feature.
some people use an octoprint set up, with a software controlled power switch,
if you set the RasPi to monitor extruder temperature after gcode end, you can shut the power off after the extruder falls below 50C
