You can test it by putting a ; in front of it which makes it comment and the firmware will ignore it.

Just standby at the power button in case it does something odd.


Thank you

I'll give that a shot next print

That did it smile

Thank you again

If you are using Repetier it should not be doing that unless you are using a gcode that was generated by XYZ software or the model you are printing has that in it, or you have added it to your start gcode line. That purge line is not normal for Repetier and default settings.

I pretty much copied and pasted the custom code from here:

I'm still pretty new, do you see the command in there anywhere?

The G-CODE Header :

M140 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; Bed (no wait)
M106 S255 ; Start fan
G90 ; set absolute coordinates

M104 S[first_layer_temperature] ; Extruder (no wait)

Change min loop to 0 and try a print.

disable the skirt setting in slicer

This would be the correct answer. The  first couple of loops in the print may sometimes be called a test loop or a purge loop but the correct term is indeed called a skirt. not to be confused with a brim or raft.

Using slic3r with Repetier. 
xyzware is horrible smile

Cura is probably your easiest slicing solution, or look into using Slic3r (find some sample slic3r configuration files here: http://www.soliforum.com/topic/14583/sl … for-xyz-jr).

You'll then need to use ThreeDubber to convert the .gcode outputs to the .3W files needed for printing (http://www.soliforum.com/post/113862/#p113862).

I noticed I'm getting a lot of issues with bigger prints due to bed space.

To allow for more Is there a way to disable the first line the printer lays down on the right hand side of the printer (Ie before It starts the brim? Ie i think its the test line?

Thank you
V
