  1. I have a Replicator 2X that I have recently moved over to the world of Cura. After reading many of the threads here and abroad, I put together a start GCode script for a two extruder printer I was able to create the configuration file so that it could be pulled up in Cura just like any other printer. However, I am having a challenge with the start script (and probably the extruder script) My start script is below: ; **** Replicator 2X start.gcode **** M73 P0 ; enable build progress G162 X Y F3000 ; home XY maximum G161 Z F1200 ; home Z minimum G92 X0 Y0 Z-5 A0 B0 ; set Z to -5 G1 Z0 ; move Z to 0 G161 Z F100 ; home Z slowly M132 X Y Z A B ; recall home offsets M135 T0 ; load right extruder offsets G1 X-130 Y-75 Z30 F9000 ; move to wait position off table G130 X20 Y20 Z20 A20 B20 ; lower stepper Vrefs while heating ;M126 S[fan_speed_pwm] M140 S{material_bed_temperature, 0} T0 M134 T0 ; stabilize bed temperature M104 S{material_print_temperature, 0} T0 M104 S{material_print_temperature, 1} T1 M133 T0 ; stabilize extruder temperature M133 T1 ; stabilize extruder temperature G130 X127 Y127 Z40 A127 B127 ; default stepper Vrefs G92 A0 B0 ; zero extruders G1 Z0.4 ; position nozzle G1 E25 F300 ; purge nozzle G1 X-125 Y-70 Z0.15 F1200 ; slow wipe G1 X-120 Y-65 Z0.5 F1200 ; lift G92 A0 B0 ; zero extruders M73 P1 ;@body (notify GPX body has started) ; **** end of start.gcode **** You will notice that both extruders are heated. I would like to be able to load a different material in each extruder and then chose at build time which material to extrude. How do I write the code so that only the active extruder is heated if its a single extruder build, or both extruders are heated if its a dual extruder build? Similarly, what does the code look like for each extruder? Presently I have: ; - Start Extruder 0 Start G Code ;Switch to Extruder 0 T0 ; - End Extruder 0 Start G Code - ; - Start Extruder 1 Start G Code ;Switch to Extruder 1 T1 ; - End Extruder 1 Start G Code - But I have no Extruder End G Code Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
