Print acceleration VS travel acceleration

[Wyman 2]

Hello,

To improve Repetier Server configuration, looking for the difference between "Print acceleration" and "Travel acceleration". Firmware information does not indicate that.

And also the value of "move buffer size"

Ultimaker Original+ settings :

UltiController/Control :

Volume d'impression : 210X210 X 205

Dimensions (W x D x H) 357 x 342 x 388mm

Mass 9 kg

accel : 4000 = DEFAULT_ACCELERATION

Vxy-jerk : 20 = DEFAULT_XYJERK

Vz-jerk : +000.40 = DEFAULT_ZJERK

Ve-jerk : 5 = DEFAULT_EJERK

DEFAULT_MAX_FEEDRATE

Vmax X:500

Vmax Y: 500

Vmax Z: 30

Vmax E: 25

Print acceleration; What is the acceleration to use while actually printing (eg; extruding material & moving)

travel acceleration; what is the acceleration to use when moving (Moving head / bed & not extruding)

Move buffer size has to do with how many moves the firmware should keep in it's memory. More is theoretically better, but most chipsets can't handle large amounts.
