Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
currently I am starting with 3D-printing. I have watched a lot of videos of |
4 |
how to create models, do bed leveling, (bad leveling, sometimes ;) choose |
5 |
filaments, and what else... |
6 |
|
7 |
Say one use a 3D-printer, which uses the a SDcard to read the gcode files. |
8 |
Beside some basic settings (hot end temprature, bed temperature, filament feed |
9 |
speed...I think that's it) all informations about the print process are in the |
10 |
gcode file. There is no other way of feeding informations to the printer as the |
11 |
gcode on that certain SDcard. |
12 |
|
13 |
And slicer settings optimzed for a certain printer are seemingly one of the |
14 |
treasures hunted a lot... |
15 |
|
16 |
The printer I ordered (and which still hasn't arrived yet ...) comes with some |
17 |
example gcode files. I would guess that the manufacturer has trimmed the slicer |
18 |
settings he has used for these example files, are optimized to give the best |
19 |
results with this printer -- its kind of an advertising. |
20 |
|
21 |
Would be nice, if it could be possible to extract them from the gcode example |
22 |
files in a way, that made it possible to feed them back into the slicer |
23 |
software manually (not expecting to get a config file ready to be read directly |
24 |
with that certain slicer software I want to use...) |
25 |
|
26 |
And as one has already feared...the question: ;) |
27 |
How can I do this? |
28 |

Cheers |

PS: I know qcode is an ASCII format...but understanding the codes to extract the |
33 |
slicer settings is a totally different kind of task... ;) |
