Sequential Printing?
I’m trying to print 6 test models at 6 different nozzle temps on a Prusa Mini+. If I select sequential printing PrusaSlicer won’t let me add custom gcode. Is there a way around this? Or will I have to change the nozzle temp manually for each model?
PrusaSlicer – Printers – Custom G-code – Between objects G-code (for sequential printing)
If I add code M106 to the box will it pause the print between the models? When I try doing this in PS it doesn’t look like it does anything?? I haven’t tried printing it yet.
RE: Sequential Printing?
That's not the usual way of going about that. The usual , although indirect route is to modify your number of extruders in your Printer profile (thereby creating virtual non real extruders) and then assigning those extruders different filament profiles with your different temps and then assign each extruder to each of your test models.
That does mean you have to create multiple filament profiles as well as a new Printer profile for the tests but they can be deleted afterwards if you want to clean up. Or save them for your next series of tests

That should be M601 not M106. I dont think changing the fan speed is going to help pause the print. ;-))
I checked the gcode and code M601 shows up so I'm going to give it a try and see what happens.

I was hoping there was a gcode work around. 🙁 I'm going to try it my way and see what happens. I'll let you know if it works.
The next time I want to do something like this I'm going to try it your way. One of the problems with my way is I'm going to have to manually change the temp 5 times. It shouldnt be to bad. Its a small print so I'll probably have to change temps every 15 minutes or so.
