Using Slic3r on UM2
in UltiMaker Cura
Posted
BE VERY CAREFULL, the link above if for the Ultimaker 1.
Running it with the instructions above caused the extruder to run into the back left clip of my UM2 and nearly cracked my build plate.
.
Slic3r needs some G-code to run.
Here is the g-code adjustment I made thanks to http://umforum.ultimaker.com/i...
G21 ;Metric Values
G90 ;Absolute Positioning
M82 ;Extruder to Absolute
G28 ; home all axes
G1 X5 Y10 F9000 ;Move Head to ~Origin
G1 Z20 F9000 ;Raise Bed to Head
T0 ;Select Extruder 1
G92 E0 ;Zero Extrude L
G1 F100 E18 ;Forward 18mm @ 100mm/min
G1 F50 E28 ;Extrude 10mm @ 50mm/min
G92 E0 ;Zero Extrude L
It doesn't start off well, and the first layer has to be tuned and turned some more. But its a start.
