How to print an STL file.

Hello,

when I open a .stl file it first gets converted to a gcode file.
Unfortunately, this file contains M101/M103 commands (which my reprap doesn't understand) for controlling the extruder.
Is it possible to tell the converter to use the E Parameter instead?

If you are using slic3r to create your Gcode then go to "Printer Stettings" -> "G-code flavor"
Change from Teacup to Reprap (marlin/Sprinter/repetier)
