    i hope that the jason works because in the maker bot desktop slicer that is how i fixed it there like shown here but in this slicer the x3g converson is integrated. bondtech installation guid replicator 2.pdf

    ill try my json file in the evening and if that dosent work ill try to change the x3g writer with a friend. if the M221 S140 command works it doesnt matter for me if i set it manually to 140% or use that command.
  3. NanoSenpai
    i tried that now can you check if that is right only the chang "machine_steps_per_mm_e": {"default_value": "140"} didnt work alone makerbotreplicator.def.zip

    I wanted to give you guys some feedback with my problem. I tried everything now. The only solution i have right now is to use the original makerbot software to print with or use 140%flow in cuta which is not ideal. I also found the solution but to change that i need to learn how to progamm. In cura it works like this. If i adapt the printer in cura i need to install a plugin that can create x3g files the x3gwriter its called. It hase a set ammount of printers like the replicator 1 / 2 / 2with heated bed and a lot more. Every printer hase defined x y z and e steps in the plugin and you tell cura wich to use with the command machine_x3g_variant = r2 for the replicator 2. Like you can see here. https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/32744-better-method-to-using-replicator-2-printers-with-cura/ So in short, i need to add the settings in the plugin and call it for example r2b or so. These settings overwrite even the gcode in cura. But thanks for you help, now i am looking for someone that can help me make the change in the x3gwriter plugin if that is possible.

    https://github.com/Ghostkeeper/X3GWriter/issues/41 i think what i am looking for is to change the gpx writer https://github.com/markwal/GPX/blob/master/src/shared/std_machines.h from this: static Machine replicator_2 = { "r2", "Replicator 2 (default)", 0, 0, {18000, 1000, 15, 2500, 285, 88.888889, ENDSTOP_IS_MAX}, // x axis {18000, 1000, 15, 2500, 152, 88.888889, ENDSTOP_IS_MAX}, // y axis {1170, 150, 10, 1100, 155, 400, ENDSTOP_IS_MIN}, // z axis {1600, 2000, 20, 96.275201870333662468889989185642, 3200, 0}, // a extruder {1600, 2000, 20, 96.275201870333662468889989185642, 3200, 0}, // b extruder 1.75, // nominal filament diameter 0.97, // nominal packing density 0.4, // nozzle diameter {0, 0, 0}, // toolhead offsets {0.0050, 0.0550}, // JKN 1, // extruder count 20, // timeout MACHINE_TYPE_REPLICATOR_2 }; to my desired: static Machine replicator_2 = { "r2", "Replicator 2 (default)", 0, 0, {18000, 1000, 15, 2500, 285, 88.888889, ENDSTOP_IS_MAX}, // x axis {18000, 1000, 15, 2500, 152, 88.888889, ENDSTOP_IS_MAX}, // y axis {1170, 150, 10, 1100, 155, 400, ENDSTOP_IS_MIN}, // z axis {1600, 2000, 20, 147.773066, 3200, 0}, // a extruder {1600, 2000, 20, 96.275201870333662468889989185642, 3200, 0}, // b extruder 1.75, // nominal filament diameter 0.97, // nominal packing density 0.4, // nozzle diameter {0, 0, 0}, // toolhead offsets {0.0050, 0.0550}, // JKN 1, // extruder count 20, // timeout MACHINE_TYPE_REPLICATOR_2 }; but how ??? i am way too deep in this already for my knowledge

    so today i tried a couple of things. first i tried to set the e steps for the printer again. - doesnt work. than i changed the e steps and offsets in a jason file replicator2.jason in the maker bot print software, than i reset the printer to default and checked again if the settings i changed worked. and now i can print in makerbot print perfectly. than i tried printing in cura but i didnt change anything. than i changed the flow rate to 140% an that fixed it for me. it is by no means perfect but way better than before. I think it has to do with the x3g writer plugin. in the setup process in cura i needet to change the metadata to "r2" that are some settings for the x3g converter and i think these are the cause of the problem and i dont know how i can find the default settings there.

    @Dustin ok ill try that today after work. that is my exact starting g code in cura i only changed the E101 to 140 and i even tried 200 just to make sure that it doesnt work. I also changed the g code flavor. but that only gives an error that the printer heats up than stops. Can it also be that i am using wrong versons of cura or the plug in? ; -- start of START GCODE – M73 P0 (enable build progress) ;M103 (disable RPM) ;G21 (set units to mm) M92 X88.8 Y88.8 Z400 E140 ; sets steps per mm for replicator G90 (set positioning to absolute) (**** begin homing ****) G162 X Y F4000 (home XY axes maximum) G161 Z F3500 (home Z axis minimum) G92 Z-5 (set Z to -5) G1 Z0.0 (move Z to "0") G161 Z F100 (home Z axis minimum) M132 X Y Z A B (Recall stored home offsets for XYZAB axis) (**** end homing ****) G92 X147 Y66 Z5 G1 X105 Y-60 Z10 F4000.0 (move to waiting position) G130 X0 Y0 A0 B0 (Set Stepper motor Vref to lower value while heating) G130 X127 Y127 A127 B127 (Set Stepper motor Vref to defaults) G0 X105 Y-60 (Position Nozzle) G0 Z0.6 (Position Height) ; -- end of START GCODE – ; -- start of END GCODE – G92 Z0 G1 Z10 F400 M18 M104 S0 T0 M73 P100 (end build progress) G162 X Y F3000 M18 ; -- end of END GCODE –

    Yea if i connect the printer via com port i can change the e steps but i cant save them. and i tryed changing the g code in cura to M92 M140 and it does always default to the original. i think i need to change the default in the x3g plugin i even ttyed a plugin that lets me change the e steps in the settings menu but that still doesnt work.
  9. NanoSenpai
    it does the same. im at a loss here i searched everywhere to set up the printer right in cure but it just ignores the e step values i give it. In matter controle 2 i can change the starting g code and it works but not in cura.
  10. NanoSenpai
    Yea i tried that already but i cant connect to the printer with the com port. Only maker print Desktop the old maker bot software can connect to the printer. And im not sure if i can change the right settings. It is explaned in the bondtech setup guid

    ok thanks ill try it today. where do i find the right file for this? is it the machine instances? C:\Users\juventuri\AppData\Roaming\cura\5.6\machine_instances

    Hello. I have the problem that i adaptet the replicator 2 with @jessecake ´s methode and everithing is working. Now i have a extruder from bondtecht, the problem now is that the gear ratio is differend from the original one and the setup guid from bondtech mentions that i neet to change the e steps from 96 or so to 140. in the cura start Gcode it doesnt seem to change anything. Is there a way to change it directly in the printer or the files? bondtech installation guid replicator 2.pdf
