Posted · Editing Gcode for Automation - Ultimaker gcode for auto leveling the bed

Hello, I'm working with the UM3 to print some product that we supply to many of our customers. I was editing the gcode to automate the process and have it down very well to the point that I can continuously print them. The only thing I was looking about is to add auto bed leveling to the start of the next iteration. I've read up about G29 being the usual gcode for leveling the bed, but still not sure. I would run it without leveling the bed, but it either has much less of a flow on the first layer, or the first layer isn't as clean as if you were to do one by one. I figured it was the leveling, since when I set the setting for leveling to be once a week, it gave the same results.

    There is no one GCode to bed compensation on UM3 or S-Line because the compensation to the GCode is done outside of Marlin. 

     

    On UM3 you can set the frequency to always perform a bed measurement instead of weekly, which would achieve what you want.
