Yes, and the one line with extrude anchor is ignored. Unless you want it to

should I have combined his g-code with what I had?

im so confused on whats happening.

Re: suport material

Replace your gcode with his in the prefix box.

Cant tell what your picture is showing.

Re: suport material

The replacing of gcode should be happening in kisslicer.

Re: suport material

I did, that video is showing that after replacing the g-code in kisslicer, and then saving the gcode from slicing the part, and loading it in repetier I hit run job and that's what happens.

Re: suport material

Lets just review what you should have done and go from there.

1) you copied all the kisslicer info into your version of kisslicer. Including the prefix and post gcode into kisslicer settings. This should at least get you close enough to have something printing.

2) open the stl in kiss. Slice it. Save it.

3) open the saved gcode file in RH. You should now see it in the preview window, as if you had sliced it in slic3r.

4) hit run. Something should happen at this point. The way it looks on the gcode prefix...it should home all the axis, then proceed to wait for the extruder temp to go up.

Re: suport material

Maybe take screen shots of all your kisslicer tabs and post it. Thatd be the fastest. Theres probably just one thing off that is screwing everything up.

Re: suport material

oh, actually...i was watching the video on my ipad and i thought the video was done, but it was just buffering. It's doing exactly what the gcode says it should be doing. I'll try to break it down.

what it's waiting for is for the extruder temperature to be met before it continues printing. I suppose what might be hanging it up is what temperature you normally print at. It's waiting for the temperature of the extruder to hit 200 before it continues.
That's what these line do in the prefix code:
M104 S200; set extruder temp and start heating
M109 S200; wait for extruder temp to be reached


if you normally print with a different temperature. Set the "s200" to reflect what temp you normally print at in the prefix gcode. so if you print at 195 it would be S195 instead of the 200 in those 2 lines. Then when the temp hits 195 it'll continue.

Re: suport material

I think I know the problem
the video where the extruder stopped,
is where the preview image shows that it is printing.
http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx60/thetoolishere/soli5_zps040f2d42.png
not sure how to fix this.

second I think it is waiting for the extruder to get hot.

excluding the "second part"
my object isn't centered.

that's what ive got,
thankyou,

Re: suport material

In the second window i think maybe the bed center should be like x: 102 and y:102.  Rounded it a little. That might throw the object in the center.

37

Re: suport material

Gotta go to bed for now. Well get this sorted out soon. We're close.

Re: suport material

now its wanting to print,
I used this guys settings on page 3:
http://www.soliforum.com/topic/348/kisslicer/page/3/

its not extruding,
the gear that feeds the filament, is jogging the filament in and out constantly,
what setting is cause it to do that.

I think this is the part that is kick my butt.

let me know what you think.

thankyou,
Ryan M.

Re: suport material

maybe you copied the destring info incorrectly??

If the extruder is pushing the filament up and down between movements then its the prime and suck settings that are activating. These are to prevent stringing and blobbing. You could try to uncheck the "destring" check box on the first page to just turn it off all together and see if that's the problem.

video dling now,
to kinda explain what is happening,
it goes to print the first layer, then pauses(that's where the video ends)
but then after a while it goes back to printing,
but still nothing is extruded.

when it does the perimeters it is feeding the filament,
but on the infill in does that rapid up and down motion with the filament.

not sure why it isn't extruding,
it kinda boggling my mind lol
here is the video.

Re: suport material

but it prints normally if you just load an STL in and use slic3r and RH?

Re: suport material

Ok, I tried to set my kisslicer up for an SD3. Sliced a simple bridge thing with it I found on thingiverse.

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:16798

The temperature is set to 200 on my gcode prefix.

is this code for an SD3?
would the prefix g-code be whats stopping my SD3 from actually extruding the filament?

Re: suport material

Hope this video can help you out a little. I have mine go to the front corner to heat up. Your gcode has it going to the back corner to heat up, but other than that it should be pretty similar.


Finished supported part.

Re: suport material

The prefix gcode your currently using shouldn't stop it from extruding. It has a few extra lines that mine doesn't. Not exactly sure what all the extra lines are for. I just based it off the one you copied and cut off all the extraneous stuff.
