I think I get it. I'll have a play around and see what spits out.
My original question was about how to print different models using the different spools, then when I got that to seem to work, the TPU (right hand spool) wasn't coming out the extruder but the correct feeder was turning. So I guess ...

Re: Using the right feed
I'm a little confused.
So even if the single extruder says it's hot and the cogs are moving for the correct spool,I would still have to manually tell it to use the other side of the mixer during print?
Thanks
Marty

Re: Using the right feed
I wasn't trying to print TPU and PLA at the same time.
I wanted to have the two reels setup so that I could print different models in different plastics without going through the whole swapping procedure.
PLA still prints fine, but TPU doesn't come out of the nozzle, even though it's heated and ...

Re: Using the right feed
Thanks, it all seemed to work, but nothing came out the print head.
The cogs were moving on the correct filament, and the heating was correct, but nothing came out.
The only difference was that I was using TPU in the right instead of PLA, even though it suggests the same heat settings would that ...

Re: Using the right feed
Hi vert,
Thanks for the reply, I had a look at the link in your signature but couldn't see about the mixing bit.
Is there any other slicer that would do this easier?
I'm running a Linux mint setup.
Thanks,
Marty

Using the right feed
Hi,
I am new to this and I bought an A10M with twin filament single mixing extruder.
I have two different materials in the left and right.
Now I want to be able to select one or the other for different models.
I tried by switching extruders from 1 to 2 but the extruder didn't head (although the ...
