Kingroon kp3s pro, no mods, unsure, esun pla+ 210c, cura, replaced the heating element because it broke, just some fiddling to stop stringing, pause print and filament change gcode modifiers in extensions

[safe igloo]

Does the Kp3s pro have a printer profile in cura?

this is what it looks like is bambu studio, I don't know what it would look like in cura

K this is what it looks like in cura

[dapper lantern]

yes

[safe igloo]

alright

[dapper lantern]

?

[safe igloo]

Sorry got busy

[dapper lantern]

that's ok, been there

[safe igloo]

I can't help much, don't own the printer or use cura, but the issue is that your printer doesn't pause mid print when you attempt to pause it right?

Something similar to this

[dapper lantern]

no the issue is that it doesn't pause when i try and program pauses in the gcode

[safe igloo]

ohhhh

So your printer likely does not read that command

It's not programmed in the firmware of your printer to read the command, and you probably don't want to tinker around with changing ur firmware

ah ok, thanks

I believe that is a klipper machine, you can set up configs over wifi right?
Go into printer config and add the m600 macro, found this on reddit, just put it either directly above any [header] not between, or add all the way at the bottom above the gray commented code

    # M600: Filament Change. This macro will pause the printer, move the
    # tool to the change position, and retract the filament 130mm. Adjust
    # the retraction settings for your own extruder. After filament has
    # been changed, simply resume the print.

[bold trout]

Does it connect to wifi?

[dapper lantern]

[bold trout]

Ah ok, can you send a photo of the ui on the printer

[dapper lantern]
