A 4 color print! Couldn't be happier minus 2 issues. using a 3dclippy on the advanced install on an ender 3 v2.
questions,
- what are everyone else's purging volumes like with a 3dclippy? was purging 140mm^3 on both unloading red and loading white, 280 total, but still the whites ended up kinda pinkish when following red. forgot to unload extra when unloading black as well so that definitely smeared, but I hate to waste so much white filament so I'd like to get that tuned in somehow but don't know how.
- and is anyone else's wipe block a stringy mess? getting a lot of stringing coming off and going to the wipe block, all during what I believe is prusaslicer's code and not my tool change code
but besides that WOW! what a fantastic device! So glad I stuck with it and got it working because I am so happy with this. I want to add another 4 colors now but don't know how that would work with the extruder replacement install though.


wipe block in question: a lot comes from when it finishes printing a color, the print head will move to the wipe block (stringing-free move) and then pause for fraction of a second, then move (while starting stringing out of nowhere.) to the back to start the unload procedure, I feel like doesn't retract on some wipe tower moves or something.

I was able to delete everything without issues, but once I delete G28 X my prints don't finish.
Morning, James. How can I eliminate this portion of the gcode without messing up the tool change? I'm not using the 3D klippy.
Hey, James. Where would be the best location for me to use this gcode? I would like to use this to wipe my nozzle after each color change. M211 S0 ; disable travel limits

One more question James. I looked at your tool changing gcode and it looks different from the mk3 gcode generator. Why is that?
