Prusa i3 pro C and Cura -> problems

Post by mcanducci » Thu Mar 17, 2016 1:11 am

Hi all,

I have a Prusa I3 Pro C and I am trying to use it with Cura.

I had to insert two different configurations:

1) single extruder config: it works great with one extruder

2) double extruder config: it works great BUT only after the "dual extruder merge" operation
in this configuration is not possible to print simple object with first or second extruder only

I cannot print an object using only the second extruder.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Max

what is the "dual extruder merge" operation ? I think if you want to print with single extruder , just select the extruder you want to use is enough, and then slice it, isn't it?

Thanks a lot Mark.

The software you are using is Repetier Host, not Cura.

Actually I cannot use RH because the Mac version is very old and doesn't support dual extruder printers.
