Slic3r Temp Tower G-Code (Prusa MK3)

thingiverse

I am mostly uploading the gcode here as a quick backup. Anyways, the gcode was made for the MK3 on Slic3r. The PLA temp tower ranges from 200 to 220 with a 5 degree between. I might add a PETG later. It should be noted that I will update these files as I see fit The PLA gcode takes about 2.5 hours to complete. _________________________________________________ NOTE: It should be noted that I have my printer play a note at the very start and end of the print. When it plays a note at the very start, it is letting you know the heating is done and it's about to do the mesh level. I use this to help clean the nozzle area if needed. The end obviously is some audio telling me the print is done. If you want this on your prints do the following. In Slic3r go to "Printer Settings. Then go to "Custom G-code". Add the following for the start. (You can edit the sound BTW) ; gcode start sound M300 S440 P500 M300 S880 P500 M300 S440 P500 (I have a complete copy and paste of the entire thing below) To get the sound at the end do the following in the "End G-code". (I put this at the very last part) ; gcode end sound M300 S440 P1500 M300 S587 P1500 M300 S440 P1500 M300 S587 P1500 The following is a complete copy and paste of the start. M115 U3.4.1 ; tell printer latest fw version M83 ; extruder relative mode M104 S[first_layer_temperature] ; set extruder temp M140 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; set bed temp M190 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; wait for bed temp M109 S[first_layer_temperature] ; wait for extruder temp ; gcode start sound M300 S440 P500 M300 S880 P500 M300 S440 P500 G28 W ; home all without mesh bed level G80 ; mesh bed leveling G1 Y-3.0 F1000.0 ; go outside print area G92 E0.0 G1 X60.0 E9.0 F1000.0 ; intro line G1 X100.0 E12.5 F1000.0 ; intro line G92 E0.0 M221 S{if layer_height==0.05}100{else}95{endif} ________________________________ HOW DID I EDIT THIS On the Slic3r I just looked at where a given layer started under preview. On the G-Code I did a find for ;(layer). So say if the change should happened at layer 7. I would do a find for ;7 Where the change happens I added M104 S220 ; set temperature The M104 command tells the printer to keep printing while the temp changes. Since we aren't dealing with some real swings in temp, I think this is more than OK.
