Ender 3-s1 pro nozzle options


Recommended Posts

Posted · Ender 3-s1 pro nozzle options

as you can see my drop down menu for nozzle sizes only has one option. I tried other printers and they had more option. But for some reason my ender 3-s1 pro only has one option. So, I wanted to ask what I'm doing wrong. And I just upgraded to a 0.6 so I'm trying to get a 0.6 option.Screenshot(865).thumb.png.21b542e327fe161f973514895eacc2a2.png

    There is no nozzle sizes because the profile was not contributed with another nozzle size.

    UltiMaker does not make these profiles they are provided by the community and get included in Cura's updates.
    So the creator of the profile in question never created settings for a 0.6mm nozzle.

    Hi folks.  I was just wandering by when I overheard.

    Looking at the S1 Pro definition file versus the regular Ender 3 Pro definition file there only appears to be one difference and that is the Z height.

    @JCENFORCER if you install a regular Ender 3 Pro in Cura you can change the name to whatever you want.  Then go to "Settings/Printers/Manage Printers" and then "Machine Settings".  Set the Z(height) to 270.

    You should be good to go as the regular Pro has nozzles from .2 to 1.0.

    Another option would be to go to the "C:\Program Files\UltiMaker Cura 5.3.1\share\cura\resources\variants\creality" folder and find the "creality_ender3s1pro_0.4.inst.cfg" file.  Open it in a text editor and do a Save As simply changing the .4 to .6.  Inside the file are two lines you need to change.

     

    Below is the entire contents of your 0.4 nozzle file.  You just need to change the Name line and the "machine_nozzle_size" line as shown below.  You could keep doing that (SaveAs and change two lines) and make a whole set of nozzles.  BUT they may be overwritten the next time you update Cura.  The regular Ender 3 Pro nozzles will not as they are included with Cura.

    [general]
    definition = creality_ender4
    name = 0.6mm Nozzle
    version = 4

    [metadata]
    hardware_type = nozzle
    setting_version = 21
    type = variant

    [values]
    machine_nozzle_size = 0.6

     

    As I mentioned, the name for the 0.6 file would be "creality_ender3s1pro_0.6.inst.cfg".

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released
        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
