And the power panic resume didn’t work :(. This was also my first try at manually changing filaments for multiple colors, waste of effort and filament lol.
Not a waste, just an investment in experience
Get a cheap APC battery backup, for a little over $100 you can get a 1000VA backup that’ll keep your printer running for a few hours through an outage.
Ended up moving the little 500VA UPS from my computer to the 3D printer. Hopefully it’ll help for brief blips.
What’s your method for changing filaments. I’ve not had much luck with doing so
In prusaslicer, you can set a color change. Or you can edit gcode by hand with the m600 command iirc. But the second way is not recommended
This model was set up for it already in the .3mf file. It stops, moves the toolhead over, automatically unloads the filament, and waits for me to yank it the rest of the way out then stick in another color. It then purges the nozzle a bit to get the main color fully flowing and asks you if it’s correct before proceeding. I did this like 7 times for this stupid half-failed box lol.
Edit: Also, you can left-click the plus sign on the layer slider at any height you want after slicing in PrusaSlicer to add manual color changes in.
