Hello,

I am using Marlin firmware in my 3d printer. I can see the remaning time on repetier software gui. But I want to display the remaning time on LCD when i print from sd card. Is it possible to display it on LCD? I think in Gcode there is no remaning time information so how can i take this information? Could anyone help me?

The M408 command includes provision for reporting estimates of the remaining print time, and this is used by the PanelDue color touch screen controller that I sell. Marlin firmware doesn't yet support M408. RepRapFirmware and current dev builds of Repetier firmware do.
