What the retract g-code command? I want to add a small retract to the end of my prints since my machine ends up spitting out a bit of material after the end of prints. I figure a 1-3mm retract at the end would prevent this.

Just trying to fine tune things not solve a real issue.]]> tmorris9 General Thu, 06 Dec 2012 20:20:01 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169968#msg-169968 Re: What the retract g-code command? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169968#msg-169968
If you have some space to spare on either side of the bed, printing a bucket-attachment that clips under the x-ends is a better solution. But the nozzle will ooze if you leave the it heated and idle.]]> Nudel General Thu, 06 Dec 2012 06:23:23 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169920#msg-169920 Re: What the retract g-code command? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169920#msg-169920
Retracting at the end of printing makes sense to slow down ooze, but it won't solve it. The perfect solution (unless you have a print = the max limit of the print bed) G01X100, G01Y100, and G01Z0. This moves the nozzle out of the way in the XY, then puts the nozzle on the bed flat, so there is too much resistance to oozing.]]> Simba General Wed, 05 Dec 2012 22:57:14 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169915#msg-169915 Re: What the retract g-code command? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169915#msg-169915
My extruder already goes to x home, so not sure what the G92 E0 would do. Sorry new to G code so don't all the commands.]]> tmorris9 General Wed, 05 Dec 2012 22:02:37 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169888#msg-169888 Re: What the retract g-code command? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,169886,169888#msg-169888
