I would say date order is preferable to alphabetical, it is for me at least.

@Sindarius Thanks! Something new I've learnt today.

Ah, gotcha. That makes sense now. Thank you. You guys have been super helpful. I just closed about 30 tabs since those questions have been solved for me. haha

I am now trying to see if I can get the probe to work. I am googling how to change the mesh grid(?) when it probes. I noticed when it first tried to probe it wasn't quite on the bed. I am assuming its coordinates on the m557 line. Still searching. The other thing I have to find is why it doesn't deploy the probe when it starts homing. It is lit up, it will kick in and out when I turn the printer on. But I need to find what I change to make it deploy when it goes to home.

Do you have a deploy probe and retract probe script? M401 should deploy it and M402 retract. I was in a very similar position to you just the other week so this is all very fresh and familiar for me!

Give Prusaslicer a go. I’ve moved to it from Cura and I’m impressed with it

@bearer Thanks. I'm making some progress now with this approach. testing my dexterity for sure

Needed more top/bottom layers but happy with this part.

First layer (0.2) and a calibration cube

@bot I’ve added the T0 to config.g as suggested above. Using reprap FW in settings. First few test prints look good to be fair. A benchy looked better than from Cura

I can only apologise.

no problem. i hope this helped you a bit to understand the commands and what they do.

Yes it's definitely improved my understanding. I will likely leave things for now. After a long day at work maybe a fresh mind tomorrow will allow me to get a first successful print.

@Phaedrux thanks for all the help, the support here is excellent and meant I could get a printer working again

@TF_Sinthoras

Is it a direct drive? 6mm retraction is more a bowden retraction distance which is why i ask. I print pet closer to 45mm/s.

Jerk settings?

@Phaedrux Thanks. Tomorrow’s job then

Hi, I've bought a Noctua fan to be used to cool the extruder. I have a 24v fan for the part cooling. I currently have a 24v fan for the extruder connected to fan 1.

I believe what I need to do is connect the Noctua to fan 2 and ensure the jumper is on the bottom 2 pins? Adjust my config to match. Just looking for a sanity check. Thanks.

I was in a similar position. I did as suggested above and made an assumption. I was able to use an infrared thermometer to measure the bed temps compared to what the Duet was aiming for and they're within a couple of c so I'm okay with that.

The Ender 3 Pro guides here: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/c/Duet_2_Maestro are very good for taking you through how to commission a printer. Obviously depending on your printer apply what is relevant but the core calibration stuff is for most instances.

Dynamic Acceleration Adjustment https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M593_Configure_Input_Shaping
Firmware retraction

I'm sure theres more as well

Sorry to hijack the thread a bit, I just assumed pressure advance was RRF version of non-linear extrusion. Not the case then?

most current hairsprays are non stick. even the cheap stuff.

My misses must have some old stuff then 😂

Hairspray is another option
