Question on custom GCODE in a profile
Hello,
I have recently bought an Anycubic Kobra 3 combo printer, and I prefer to use Prusaslicer with it than Anycubic's slicer. In order to get an accurate profile I got it from an Anycubic's previous version of its slicer, which is based on Prusaslicer.
If I do so, I get a good profile with the set of four filaments. I tried it with a multi-colour model and it works, but if I try a model with just one colour the printer does not charge the filament on the fusor module. I discovered that if I manually add a 'T0' code in the gcode file just before starting to print it works. Now the question would be if I can set up the profile to add that code automatically. I am not an expert in profiles so I wonder if there is a way to add the code only when I use one colour, because for multiple colour models PrusaSlicer adds T0, T1, and so on.
Thank you for your help

and save the new profile with an appropriate name.
Cheerio,

With the caveat that I no NOTHING about Anycubic printers short of the fact that they exist:
You can simply save a copy of your multi-color profile and make whatever color adjustments you need, such as adding the T0 to the startup gcode. In my case, I have a profile for Mk4S, one for Mk4S+MMU3, and one for Mk4S + high flow nozzle (which I never use). Just go to Edit Preset and click on the floppy disk icon next to the printers name to save a copy.
To add the T0, go to Custom Gcode>Startup Gcode in the printer setting dialog. Not knowing anything about your specific printer, I don't know where the best place would be for it in the startup gcode.

Hello FoxRun3D
Thank you for your reply. I will do what you suggest. I thought I could use some sort of conditional Gcode command to choose from one colour or more than one.
Best regards
