Posted · how to print multiple parts

I want my printer to print multiple parts..... but when I slice in cura, the printer is making parts in weird way. It is neither completing one part first and then going to second nor it is completing one layer at a time. I want my printer to print complete one part first and then switch to another. How to do that?
Thanks

    See Special Modes -> Print Sequence. Se that to "One at a time". This will however limit the available height of your build volume, in order to prevent cases where the gantry of your 3d printer could collide with previously printed parts.

    That begs the question: "What does it do (instead of completing one layer at a time)?"

    for example, I had multiple clips (parts) on bed. It printed one layer of one clip and went to print same layer on the 2nd clip, but now it should have gone to print same layer of the 3rd clip, instead of doing this it jumped back to build next layer of 1st clip and ignored 3rd.

    Did you check the Preview before printing?

     

    In cases like this it can be very helpful if you save and share a project file (File -> Save project...) and share it so we can see exactly what models you are printing, how you have configured your printer, and what settings you use. Otherwise all we can do is guess.
