PrusaSlicer-2.6.1 not working with Polaroid

Hi Guys

Im no pro so basically just clutching at straws.

My polaroid 250s was running fine but now stops after bed levelling and the heater is optimised and then permanently shows initialising and does nothing.

Looking at the code 2.6.1 produces it seems to have juggled around a few parameters, could this be my problem?

Here is the first few lines of a file that works

ebp@200pla@1null@0version@1_2_36@null@nullT0M104 T0 S215G21G90M107T0G28G29M109 T0 S215M107T0G21 ; set units to millimetersG90 ; use absolute coordinatesM82 ; use absolute distances for extrusionG92 E0; Filament gcodeM107;LAYER_CHANGE;Z:0.2;HEIGHT:0.2G1 Z-.1 F7800G1 E-1.5 F2400G92 E0G1 X16.754 Y0 F7800G1 E1.5 F2400

 

 

here is the first few lines that does not work from 2.6.1,

Would really appreciate some help

Another thought , could it be that 2.6.1 is not picking up the custom Gcode that was written for me?

This is embarrassing i think i swapped the two files around the one that works is the one that i say doesn't

The G1 F3000 line might be the problem

Who know s with the information you have provided.

If you want a better answer then you need to slice something with the error and then use File>Save Project As to save a PS 3mf file.  The 3mf project file will contain the object you are slicing but more importantly it contains copies of all 3 profiles you are using.  With a project we should be able to slice with exactly the same settings and results.  Even better if you haver a project file that works with a specific PS version and doesn't work with 2.6.1 so a comparison can be done.

One thing though, the forum only allows a very limited amount of file types.  3mf is not one of them.  SO you need to zip it up into an archive or the forum will just silently not attach it.  With the edit time also being short its best to check it actually attached immediately after posting.

Thanks Neophyl

I have attached a zip file containing two 3mf files 

Bike Light Bracket  works.

CUBES Trophy does not work, and stalls when the bed is levelled and the nozzle is optimised.

RE: PrusaSlicer-2.6.1 not working with Polaroid

Up until the part where it actually starts sending the print commands for the objects there is only one difference in the 2 files.  The 2 projects start gcode is very slightly different 

Bike light bracket has "pla@1137" and cubes has "pla@1"  As these are completely custom I have nop idea what your printer is using these for.

Aside from that line every other bit of the start gcode is identical.  The actual gcode after that is too different to do a proper comparison.  You would need the same object /filament etc where one works and the other doesnt to see if theres other differences.
