Nozzle Size harder to change if Dual+ Extruders

Posted · Nozzle Size harder to change if Dual+ Extruders

Okay I figuring out dual extrusion. I change nozzle size frequently so I am used to having the nozzle size right next to material for "Extruder 1". But when I put more extruders on, that setting is relegated to machine settings > extruder 1,2,3 > nozzle size

 

A bit harder. Also I happen to be sharing the nozzle, one hotend, just using a Y adapter I printed and 3 extruders so I really would prefer the nozzle size was linked between extruders but I bet it would require I re-code Cura. 

 

Oh BTW - I find it often wipes inactive extruders on the prime tower, despite being told not to - usually re-assigning the materials will make this go away. Guess it only wastes 20 seconds per layer though for it to retract up to the Y and feed in other material.

      • 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.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released
        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
