Silly Question Determining Distance travelled of HotEnd?

Posted · Silly Question Determining Distance travelled of HotEnd?

I am a bit curious and want to know the Distance the HotEnd travels in a printjob.

I thought of using the length of filament used, but as the head also jumps (without printing) that won't work.

Is there an (easy?) way to determine the length of traveling in Cura?

My curiosity is grounded on the idea: "How many meters can the machine run a line without losing it's position". (I know, in theory, unending, but I want to know real world values).
