Extruder End G-code missing from end of print

Posted (edited) · Extruder End G-code missing from end of print

At the end of the print using Cure 5.3.1, the final code includes the printer End G-code, but not the Extruder End G-code.

In my case Ender 3Pro, with extruder as T0, and marking Pens as T1 and T2, I have a tool park command under extruder2, and extruder3, to put pen back in holder when done.

 

Cura includes the End G-code commands (put pen back) between layers, but the final tool never includes the final extruder End G-code, so the last pen never gets put back in the holder.

Is there a final command I am missing to include the last extruder code before last Print code?

correct Cura is 5.3.1

    Found work around on redit,

    added {machine_extruder_end_code, Extruder_nr} to end print code,

    is there a better way to do this, like selecting if end code is added or not per tool ?

    attached is my Direct ink writing implementation as sample coding reference

    may have spoken to soon, this only works if first extruder is used last. what is missing in order to end on other tools? extruder_nr only points to first extruder in print end code.

    cura 5.4 beta has updates, and GregValiant has posted a post process script to include the last tool change, so no need to add  {machine_extruder_end_code, Extruder_nr} to the printer end gcode 

     

    Thanks GregValiant, good work

        (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.
