July 28, 2016 11:05AM
hello,
I am doing the 3d printer prusa mendal i2. I want to incorporate a solder paste dispenser unit to this, this dispenser unit will have the another motor and no heater or sensor [www.diyouware.com]. I want to know how to program these with marlin and currently I am using the Arduino mega 2560.so I want to know how to program it with the marlin.

thanks
VDX

... it's nearly no difference between an extruder and motor-driven dispenser - you only have to deactivate all temperature reading/feedback and adjust the E0-steps accordingly for your dispensing nozzle diameter (volume per steps).

Thank you very much for your response but when i am trying to select the extruder as number 2 and on compiling its shows me error for the temp sensor. So could you please give me any programmed file for the 3d printer.

... you have to set the min-temps to 0 in the firmware or plug a dummy-resistor on the thermistor pins, so the measured "temperature" without thermistor will stay in the allowed range ...

#error TEMP_SENSOR_1 is required with 2 or more EXTRUDERS.

... read through the comments in the files "configuration.h" and "pins.h" - you have to set and define all the needed pins and numbers ...
