      Using PrusaSlicer, is there any way to automatically (and without manually editing the gcode file) turn off the tools that will no longer be used in a print?
      Specifically, let's say I have an 8 hr print that uses one tool for PLA and another tool that uses PETG as a separation layer between support and printed part. The separation layer is printed within the first 30 minutes but since the print is 8 hrs, the tool sits there (granted, at standby temperature) for 7.5 hrs doing nothing before the print is done and the tool heaters are turned off.

        @jens55 Not as far as I know, but seems like a good suggestion, so I've asked on the PrusaSlicer section of the Prusa forum: https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/prusaslicer/turn-off-hot-end-when-no-longer-in-use/
