[Initial layer temperature not set in 4.11? (SOLVED)]

Because you use the {material_print_temperature} instead of {initial_material_print_temperature} replacement tag in the g-code (or well, that's what I think is going wrong)

 

Thank you very much - exactly the problem, well solved from a distance.

 

Not a bug, just the operator (again!)

That's because your start-gocde probably sets the printing temperature and not the initial printing temperature.

Well there is a set print temperature to 200 because I do a preload of the nozzle and squirt a few mm off bed after bed levelling and before running the main code.

But why should an initial M109 prevent the initial layer temperature from being set?

[Initial layer temperature not set in 4.11? (SOLVED)]

Hi All,

Upgraded to 4.11 yesterday and for a difficult print I set the initial layer temperature to a rather higher level than the remaining layers (215°C vs 201°C).

However the print still didn't work and after some further investigation in the GCode, I cannot see that the initial temperature has been set - the standard printing temperature is set at the start and is never changed.

 

Happy to be told that I have not correctly set something up....

[Cura 3.4 where is" Print outside perimeter before holes"]

@Brulti, many thanks - I agree with you now that I have seen the release notes and read them as carefully as you did.

 

I interpret that it is a no-option setting if:

printing outer before inner walls

 

So in summary, if you choose the setting ' outer before inner walls', you get the outside perimeter printed before the hole. If however you choose the standard (?) inner walls then outer walls, this feature doesn't apply.

 

Much clearer, hopefully this thread will help others too.

 

Thanks again for your aid.

[Cura 3.4 where is" Print outside perimeter before holes"]

Are we the only people who want to use this new feature that is one of the key features of 3.4.....?

 

Come on folk, what are we doing wrong......where is this feature hidden?

OR.....is this something we need to install an add-on....?

 

H E L P..... (please!)

[Cura 3.4 where is" Print outside perimeter before holes"]

Nobody with any ideas.....?

 

Is this a BUG - or just my failure to look hard enough??

[Cura 3.4 where is" Print outside perimeter before holes"]

Hi All,

I asked this in the general 3.4 topic but I think it is more sensible and easier to view/search if I setup a separate topic.

 

As the title says, where do I find the new feature called " Print outside perimeter before holes " in 3.4?

Where do I find " Print outside perimeter before holes " as a setting?

 

I really need this setting since I often add my name/logo on the 1st layer and it doesn't always work.... :-(

Thanks,

Simon
