Hi, I am using Smoothieware, and Prusa Slicer. I want to use the Slicer’s ability to pause and change different filaments in same print (like this one which I did without pausing the print, manually cutting and feeding new filament)
Prusa Slicer has the ability to add multiple filament changes based on layers which basically adds M600 at those stages. Unfortunately I don’t have a LCD panel, so I can’t actually pull and inset the filament without Gcode, I am trying to get that done via following gcode.
However after the first 75mm extrusion (in same spot more like a glob) print head moves to previous position, and suddenly it reverses the extruder, and it kinda ejects the newly inserted filament. Can someone please help me troubleshoot the gcode?
