    To make our Raise3D Pro2 Dual printers work with Cura I ended up copying and modifying the Raise3D N2 definitions to create a custom printer type (files attached). To use them, unzip the attached zip file into your "C:\Program Files\Ultimake Cura 4.3\resources\definitions" directory (assuming Windows) and hopefully Cura will offer it as a printer option after you restart.

     

    I updated the build plate dimensions in the new definition, but the main fix involved updating the extruders' "steps per unit" setting in the "machine start g-code" section, which went from E140 to E6640. The new value is based on the number I found in the printer's menus.

     

    Please note:

    • This definition is for the regular Pro2 Dual, not the "Plus" model. I suspect it would work on both though.
    • I have used this definition to make several prints, but your mileage may vary. (i.e., it's not an official solution)
    • If you want to be extra cautious, you can confirm that your printer uses the same "steps per unit=6640" before attempting a print. It's located under "Home > Settings (gear icon) > Machine > More Settings > Hardware > Steps Per Unit > E Steps Per Unit".

    If you end up trying it can you reply back and let us know if it works for you?

    raise3D_Pro2_dual.custom.def.zip 1.95 kB · 585 downloads ?

    Does anyone know how to upload this to work with the new 5.1 Cura? The directories seem entirely different.
