      Ok, So I looked at the lulzbot Taz Pro. I like their Dual lifting extrubter solution and the fact that it is direct drive.

      How do I wire up the 2 pin linear servos to duet 2 wifi + Duex 5, and how and where do I configure the servos to retract and lift either hotend assembly during a "tool-change," etc. Firmware is Reprap, not marlin, and the slicer will be prusa slicer 2.2.0. Or would it be better to use CURA?

      Please help me?

      -Thank you!

        Give this a look and see how you do.

        Either slicer would work. All the slicer does is send a tool select command for each part of the model you assign the tool to. The tool change files in the /sys folder define what happens before during and after a tool change for each tool. That's where you'd do your lift and lower, etc.
