Hi guys! :o
Are you can't find Geeetech A10 on Cura?
Don't worry
Refer to these:

Update:Thanks for @vert's suggestions.
1. We added the G29 for the start code
We added the "G1 Y230 F6000" for the end code( 2019/1/7)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. We attached the PLA filament profile for Multi_mixer printer(2019/1/23)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. We set the default filament diameter to 1.75mm and it can work with Cura 4.0(2019/4/7)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.Thanks for @LisaE‘s suggestions.The profile updated.(2019.4.17)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Deleted the "Heating gcode for nozzle/hotbed"in"start code".Added the meshes file.(2019.4.24)

:shock:
I did this and now Cura is starting my print too high and/under extruding. Switched back to Repetier Host and no problems at all with same bed level etc.

Warning: this file only works for PLA :!: Yesterday I tried to print PETG, but initial gcode lowered the temperature to 200 * C without permission. :idea: This file was the Problem.

Is there going to be a file made for the A10M? I would think that shouldnt be a problem for the developers especially when it is a recommended program!! I tried the custom route as suggested in the manual but the latest version of Cura does not give the FDM printer option only the FFM, as a result Cura does not seem to communicate with the printer.

Hi, brand new to the world 3D printer. I just got the A10 and trying to set up it's profile on Cura for it (Cura 4.4) and when i put the resource from the zip folder here into the cura folder in Programs, all the other printers appear but not the A10. Any suggestions?

when i look in the folder I see it there but Cura doesn't seem to pick it up in the list of printers.

Thank you
