Re: KISSlicer

So reset my suck and prime to 2 equal.  I upped my retraction speed to 100 and it still will not completely prime.  If I up the prime to double the suck, I can get it to prime again most of the time. except on very small paths. Like around small screw holes. The first inside, as inside the part, loop will not completly extrude and the outer part of the loop is fine. the results in the small circles being detached from the sparse infill. 

Here is my prefix gcode

M107
G21; set mm units
G28 ;home all axis
G90; set absolute coordinates
G92 E0; reset extruder distance
M104 S200; set extruder temp and start heating
G1 Z5 F300 ;move platform down 5mm
G1 X195 Y195 F3000 ; move to back right corner
M109 S200; wait for extruder temp to be reached
G1 Z.3000 F200 ;move platform close to nozzle
;G1 E7; extrude anchor
G1 F3000; center print head
G92 E0; reset extrusion distance
G90 ; use absolute coordinates
G21 ; set units to millimeters
G92 E0
M82 ; use absolute distances for extrusion
G1 F4500.000 E-1.00000
G92 E0
;G1 Z0.300 F3600.000

And a screen shot of what I blieve are the most important settings.

Edit:  Got some advice on the kisslicer forum, may have my retract speed set too high.  will try changing it this evening.

Re: KISSlicer

Well my retraction prime problems are solved.  Sublime over on the Kisslicer forum pointed out that I was trying to drive the extruder at 100mm/s second on destring.  Set it to 15mm/s and I no longer have any problems.

Re: KISSlicer

Thanks for posting the settings! Been returning here several times after fiddling with settings. Just today I managed to set destring suck to 10mm, which resulted in nozzle cleaning and such. All good now. Seems the nozzle was almost clogged after all.

Thanks again!

Re: KISSlicer

im having issues with the extruder traveling "if you look from the top down into the solidoodle 3" it travels to the lower left corner and dosnt want to stop.

what should I do,
im having trouble understanding this stuff.
can anyone simplify this for me, since I have no clue what the g-code is telling me.

thankyou in advance

Re: KISSlicer

Hey everyone,
i have the same problem as " ryan-mm85". (

it travels to the lower left corner and dosnt want to stop.

)
I recently received a solidoodle 3 but was not  happy with the printing quality at all, so I wanted to try "kisslicer" instead of Slic3er.

Can you help me?

Re: KISSlicer

I have an SD3 and have been using KISSlicer for 6 months and all of a sudden I sliced an object and when I went to save it I got a message that there was no G20 or G91 code at the beginning. When I ran it the bed didn't come up but it just started  extruding. It's been so long since I set it up I don't remember what the best initial G codes where for the SD3. Can someone point me in the right direction
Thanks

Re: KISSlicer

Here is a link, the gcode you mention are just for setting mm/in.s and relative pos.

also here is a link to a thread about starter gcode ---> http://www.soliforum.com/topic/231/impr … end-gcode/

Re: KISSlicer

Thanks exactly what I was trying to find.

Re: KISSlicer

So I've been using Kisslicer for a while now, and boy does it slice fast compared to Slic3r, but I can't seem to get great prints below 0.3mm layer height. 0.3mm prints are fantastic and the support is easy to remove.
The issue I have is thin broken infill, and thin fluffy support material that gets dislodged and moved around everywhere. This issue is for both my 0.2mm settings, and 0.1mm settings. I've based my set-up on settings I have found here.
The perimeters seem to come out perfectly though, which is weird.

Has anyone else had that issue? How do I fix it?

Re: KISSlicer

Try slowing down you infill speeds under printer/speeds, or you can try printing at a slightly higher temperature.

Thanks

Re: KISSlicer

When I import my Kisslicer g-code into Repetier Host, it shows up about 100 mm off the virtual printbed. Any ideas on how to fix this?

you need to adjust your offset in settings.

Re: KISSlicer

the 1.5 beta 2.20 is out..
(click on the dropbox link in the first message : http://www.kisslicertalk.com/viewtopic. … &t=362 )

last unofficial english manual here : http://3ntr.eu/wp-content/uploads/2015/ … 080215.pdf


Changes from 2.16:

    Arbitrary Z-gap is now allowed
    Fixed a bug where the wipe and destring following support interface paths where at the wrong height when Z-Gap was used.
    G-code summary at the end now includes per-extruder filament length (and volume) used.
    Optimized object slicing with many small sub-meshes.
    You can now add up to 5 layers of support interface on top of the raft.
    Pressing delete anywhere in the model tab no longer deletes the model.
    Fixed a bug where the animation slider would reset itself every second.
    Fixed bug when Slice-and-Save is checked and we cancel the file selection.
    Every-N-Layers now doesn't drag-value-change.
    Added a squiggle-base to the prime pillar to help it adhere to the bed / raft.

Re: KISSlicer

This is a great slicer. I recommend getting it.
