any reason why this happened? second time and made sure not to move printer or anything

[signal pelican]

in the preview is there a gab between the black and orange?

[restive vigil]

uh nope

[signal pelican]

id try adding a modifier slowing the speed down to 30 mms 1 or 2 layers before the change and see if its works

maybe you print so fast hat you skip steps

[restive vigil]

how would I do that?

like adding modifiers would slow it down for only the first few layers?

[signal pelican]

i dont know what you are printing with but if you use prusa slicer https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/prusaslicer/speed-control-in-prusaslicer/

[restive vigil]

yep i am

[signal pelican]

i dont know waht i wrote makin you think that but that thats very wrong

[restive vigil]

oh then wdym?

[signal pelican]

#1110797660862033920 message

also the link explains it on how

[restive vigil]

ah i see, so basically just changing print speed after it color swaps

[signal pelican]

before

1 or 2 layers

also slow down travel speed

[restive vigil]

before and keep it the speed that its changed at, or before and a few layers later back to normal?

[signal pelican]

at first id keep it if it works you can test that too but i guess you start skipping somehow.

[restive vigil]

hm okay, will try that tomorrow and see how it goes

thanks, will let you know

[signal pelican]

[restive vigil]

dk if this is a me issue or what at this point
dont think print speed is an issue, is it? might be the file?

[restive vigil]

someone said that this is due to layer shifting, do you think this might be the case?

i mean i watched a few videos and articles and followed through and made sure everythings right, so not sure

reason i doubt it is ive never had a layer shift on any other prints, and doing multiple prints on this with different models and still having the same results makes me wonder

[signal pelican]

It is possible but thats why we lowerd the print speed. What printer do you have?

[restive vigil]

ender 3 v2

[signal pelican]

hmmm

[restive vigil]

yeah im lost

[signal pelican]

attach your gcode please and do oxu have a dual extrusion hotend aka 2 single nozzles?

[restive vigil]

i mean like

on my printer

i have a nozzle

?

[signal pelican]

there are several methods for a colour change thats why im asking mixing nozzles 2 seprate nozzles etc

[restive vigil]

oh

i mean

what i do is it pauses for the color change, i pull out the old filament, put in the new one, extrude it til the new filament goes through, and resume

i dont like change nozzles or anything

[signal pelican]

okay

hmm i think you missunderstood what i asked you to do .. you are still printing with roughly 100mm/s befor the color change is happening

[restive vigil]

really?

i mean i went in 2 layers before the color switch and added gcode changing it to 50% lower

[restive vigil]

what would this be showing?

[signal pelican]

speeds

[restive vigil]

oh

[signal pelican]

jep

im a little surprised myself

[restive vigil]

should i go like 2 layers lower then?

i mean the text is all the way at around 1.5

while the layer below it is still at like 6ish

so not sure

[signal pelican]

it your printer goes to change colour is it homing or does your print head just move up and starts beeping

[restive vigil]

it stops print, goes all the way to the left and sits there waiting for me to click the okay button once i switched the filament

[signal pelican]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-thinking-about-you-think-thinking-of-you-gif-20503421

there is the possiblilty that M600 is not completly supported .. what firmware version do you have?

[restive vigil]

im using jyers

[signal pelican]

hmm personaly i would not use jyers but the professional firmaware

not that jyers is a bad choice but it seems a little outdated

[restive vigil]

dk, for me its fine

did run into an issue earlier where when I were to pause, the heater timeout wouldnt go away, but had to change a few lines of code in it to get it fixed again

[signal pelican]

jep that was a marlin bug that got fixed like ...1 or 2 years ago

question. at your filament change do you happen to know what coordinates the printer showed on the display?

its possible that it switched from relative to absolute ..

[restive vigil]

no, i dont

[signal pelican]

usally the printhead pauses at x10 and y10 with m600

[restive vigil]

well i mean x10 is all the way to the left, right

[signal pelican]

and if you accidentaly switch to absolute coordiantes with m600 that would explain your shift

[restive vigil]

i think i’m gonna try to do this whole thing in the marlin firmware and see how it goes maybe

i know some things in jyers are stored on the board but don’t think i’ll have any issues

[signal pelican]

since the shift always seems to be the same i think it is a mix up with the coordinates but i cant put my finger on exactly where the issue is

@patent depot any idea? after colour change printhead is off roughly 1 cm in y

[restive vigil]

you think i should do it again and watch what coordinates it homes at again then?

[signal pelican]

That would be great yes

Or/and you add a G28 X Y after the filament change

[restive vigil]

what’s that?

[signal pelican]

Thats homing your x and y axis. In the hope it will give you the right coordinates

[restive vigil]

hm okay will do that

[restive vigil]

when do i like do that tho, would it be after i change the filament and the first layer of the text?

[signal pelican]

After the filament changw yes

[restive vigil]

a bit stuck, in the same layer where i tell it to swap colors, i cant add the gcode on it, so would I have to do it like a layer after it?

i mean makes no sense homing it a layer after

[signal pelican]

You can add that g code manualy by opening that file in a text editor

[restive vigil]

is there one you use?

[signal pelican]

Microsofts ?

[restive vigil]

notepad doesnt seem to work

nvm found one i think

[signal pelican]

you sure? then just the normal txt editor

[restive vigil]

found it, so i just put it after m600?

[signal pelican]

yes

[restive vigil]

"G28 X Y" right

[signal pelican]

yes

[restive vigil]

alright

well

im going to leave with a cliff hanger because timezones suck

1:30am almost for me

[signal pelican]

never 3dprint at 3 am 😄

[restive vigil]

lol

you'll see in 22 hours whether this works or not

[signal pelican]

good night

[restive vigil]

night

@signal pelican nevermind, got another problem

after i added the g28 x y

killed itself

[signal pelican]

öhm okay

thats a new one

im currently running it on my prusa and wait for the filament change

[restive vigil]

okay uh just to confirm so i dont feel dumb

is it g28 x y or g28 x10 y10

[restive vigil]

thanks for the help

[signal pelican]

g28 x y

no numbre

unless you have 10 x and 10 y axis XD

[restive vigil]

yep okay am fine then

im so lost on what the problem is

okay now im getting a weird chirping sound from the printer

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464154313019621397/1111165938084089856/IMG_9919.MOV

ah i see

think it was trying to home at the start for some reason, but it wasnt, and then it kills itself

which is why it was making that noise

heres the gcode i changed

[signal pelican]

looks right too me

hmm odd

i m waiting for my prusa too get to that point and we will see what happens

[restive vigil]

alright, ill actually try to head out now

ill be on for a couple more minutes to catch your message but will mess around with printer tomorrow

night

[signal pelican]

okay so it did home and prints at the right location and slowed down but only for the letters

and it prints on the correct position

and i can confirm with out the homing step it would have been that 1 cm off like yours

so its loosing or changing the y position

Horrible Quality but i printet with "wrong" code and at 400% flowsoim happy

[restive vigil]

hm whatt

so it has to be a printer problem for me

[signal pelican]

it somehow looses the y position

but with homing it worked

so no idea whats happening at your printer

[restive vigil]

wonder why my printer died when i put in the g28 code

i’m going to install marlin again tomorrow and see if there’s any difference

so we’ll see

will let you know tomorrow, thank you 🙏

[signal pelican]

👍

[restive vigil]

yeah having issues installing the marlin firmware now lol

put the bin file on the card and put it in the printer, turned it on, and just stuck on the creality logo

thinking about it, i think it might be a problem with my version of jyers

because i had an issue where the heater would time out and wouldnt go back to normal if i paused a print, so think it was @kind seal who helped me change a few blocks of code to fix that problem, so most likely thats the reason that it loses the y position

[signal pelican]

i think you need to change the screen files too when you go back to marlin. but if its fixed now thats nice. what did you change exactly?

[restive vigil]

hehe dont think im printing soon

rebooted jyers firmware and accidently put zoffset .5mm too low and 3rd bed is destroyed
