The last E value before that line is E119.0943 and so that move to E112.5943 is your normal "Retract Distance" and doing a little math it is 6.5mm. That is the normal situation when retraction is enabled in Absolute mode. In your second example the E3768.34114 is probably "Retract Distance" less than the previous E value in that Gcode file. Assuming that your retract distance was 6.5 for that file, that would make the previous E value 3774.84114.
This is the Ending Gcode used by a lot of Creality printers. It will work on your Anet.
When Cura finishes calculating the Gcode it will add that final retraction...call it 6.5mm. The code below will retract an additional 4mm and so at the end of a print the filament will be 10.5mm back from the nozzle. That would need to be taken care of either by adding purge lines to the StartUp G-Code, or making sure a skirt/brim is long enough to "take up the slack".
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
