Insert Custom G-Code at Layer on Core One printer.
I'm wanting to print some logos with a different colored filament on the print. My first attempt didn't go well. The printer goes so fast and the color changed filament doesn't stick well and has blobs on some of the initial 2nd color prints.
I would like to add custom G-Code that
- waits for the nozzle head to get to 215 C and doesn't start until it is at 215 C
- then does a nozzle wipe to clean the nozzle
- then reduces the speed to 50%.
Can anyone provide custom G-code I should insert to accomplish this? thanks

You will probably have to learn and try something about G-code commands yourself. It's hard for someone who doesn't need it to try it for you and give it to you for free. It's not that complicated, but it will cost you time and filament. Yes, you know, there is a proverb in our country that says: "No work, no cake!"

The hard part about what you want to do is the second line. To clean the nozzle, the extruder would have to get back to the bed level, which risks hitting whatever you have printed already. So it would all be model specific.
However, there's really no need for custom gc0de. Color swaps for logos have been done a million times before. Just search this forum for multi color prints, probably your best guess is the Mk4 or Mk3 forums, the principles are identical. Or google for it, and include site:forum.prusa3d.com. There are many many posts on this topic.
If I understand your specific issue, one thing you can do is print a small cube next to your primary object so that it becomes basically a wipe tower.
