Possible bug while printing multiple objects on plate - hot-end temp set to 60 degrees between objects.
Hello!
I noticed a strange behavior with PrusaSlicer this evening. I was printing two identical items on one plate, and as the printer switched between objects, it set the hot-end temperature to 60 C. Here is a snippet of code from the .GCODE file -- see the third line.
Printer: Creality CR-6SE
Software: PrusaSlicer 2.9.1 for Macintosh
;AFTER_LAYER_CHANGE ;0.32 M104 S60 ; set temperature G1 Z.32 ; stop printing object trellis_parameterized_175x80.stl id:1 copy 0 ; printing object trellis_parameterized_175x80.stl id:0 copy 0 G1 X31.475 Y82.372 G1 E5 F2400 ;TYPE:External perimeter ;WIDTH:0.419999 G1 F1500 G1 X31.467 Y82.405 E.00067

As usual, seeing your zip-compressed 3MF file attached to your post is more useful than a code snippet. That way we can try to replicate the issue and look at the settings to see if anything has been inadvertently changed.

The gcode merely confirms that the printer is doing what it's told to do ... not what prompted the instruction itself.
Save your project as a .3mf file

Zip the .3mf and post it here. It will contain both your part and your settings for us to diagnose.
Cheerio,

I'm sorry. I thought I did upload the files earlier today. I must have screwed something up. Here they are again.
In your Filaments settings you have First layer temperature set at 190°C and Other layers at 60°C ...
So the temperature drop is after the first layer - as instructed.
My guess is that you entered the bed temperature in the wrong field; easily done.
Cheerio,

Thank you, Diem and Foxrun! I'm glad it was something simple and stupid on my part. I've been switching between Cura, Orca, and PrusaSlicer this week and it's been interesting. Cura just made a mess of things. Orca was pretty good, but the PrusaSlicer text search for settings sold me on it. Plus, it makes nice prints -- when I set the temperature correctly. 🙄
I printed multiple items again last evening and wasn't able to replicate the temperature change, obviously. Thanks again!
