Hi,

I have a problem with my prusa i3 pro C. The extruder are configurated in the wrong order.
When i use repeatier host to extrude, it retract.
When i want to retract, it extrude.
Result is i cant print.

What do i have to change in the firmware?
I supposed this is here
#define INVERT_E0_DIR true // for direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geared extruder set to false
#define INVERT_E1_DIR false // for direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geared extruder set to false
#define INVERT_E2_DIR false // for direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geared extruder set to false

Do i put all in true?

Thanks for help

Hi,
You are right,these codes are controlling the extruders' direction.

Firstly,as you know your Pro C has two extruders,you'd better figure out which extruder's direction is wrong or the two both wrong.

Then you can invert the value(E0\E1),finally upload the firmware.

Out of curiosity (and because I can't find the answer online), if E0 = Extruder #1 and E1 = Extruder #2, what does E2 control??
