Cura 4.5 Dual Extrusion Turn Off Inactive Nozzle

Hello!

I am printing with Cura 4.5 with a Duet 3 controller board. I am experiencing problems after the left nozzle finished the support structure, it did not turn off and remain at printing temperature for the rest of the print. It would be ideal if it can turn off after finishing all of the support to prevent filament from degrading inside the nozzle. 

Is there a setting to enable this or is there something I did not configure correctly?

Recently, Cura sometimes let the second extruder move to X0Y0 in layer 2 for no reason. I also pasted the settings that causes this problem.

I really appreciate any support! 😀

    After some more investigation, it seemed like when printing a part with two materials, Cura will turn off the inactive nozzle after it finished all moves (M104 T1 S0). However, when using a second nozzle as support, Cura will set it to the standby temperature after it finished all moves instead of turning it off. 

     

    I know it is a huge achievement and no easy task to write Cura. I really appreciate any help. 

     

    Thanks

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
