Two-color printing configuration

Post by gpau »

How do I set up the printer for two-color printing at both the software and hardware level?
I currently use the new firmware for the Geeetech i3 Pro C.
I have not been able to print in two colors yet.

Thank you

You need to select dual extruder at your printing setting

I didn't understand, how to configure and calibrate the dual extruder on our I3 C Pro printer, nor how to select, which extruder should be used for which part.

Furthermore, I can't find a possibility, to move the extruder to a specific x-y-coordinate. E.g. I would like to set for Extruder 1, go to x:100, y:100
Then, I do the same for extruder 2 and I would be able to calculate the offset.

Is there a manual or manpage available, to follow step by step?

Thanks,
Moritz
