Hello, I am quite satisfied with the experience I’ve had with the Ender 3 KE, but what deeply bothers me is that at the end of a print, the head/extruder automatically parks at the back left. This is fine; however, the issue is that most of my prints are “low” in height, and after finishing one of these, the head remains parked very close to the print plate, making it uncomfortable to perform operations like filament purging/changing, nozzle cleaning, etc.
I would like to know if I can and how to make the head do what it normally does at the end of a print but also lift to the Z-axis limit.
This is the default gCode that Creality Print has for the Ender 3 KE:
G91 ;Relative positionning
G1 E-2 F2700 ;Retract a bit
G1 E-2 Z0.2 F2400 ;Retract and raise Z
G1 X5 Y5 F3000 ;Wipe out
G1 Z5 ;Raise Z more
G90 ;Absolute positionning
G1 X2 Y218 F3000 ;Present print
M106 S0 ;Turn-off fan
M104 S0 ;Turn-off hotend
M140 S0 ;Turn-off bed
M84 X Y E ;Disable all steppers but Z
I would also like to add the code to turn off the extruder, as by default it keeps it heated to 140°C.
G91 ;Relative positioning
G1 E-2 F2700 ;Retract a bit
G1 E-2 Z0.2 F2400 ;Retract and raise Z
G1 X5 Y5 F3000 ;Wipe out
G1 Z5 ;Raise Z more
G90 ;Absolute positioning
; Levantar el cabezal al límite del eje Z
G1 Z240 F3000 ; Adjust “240” to the max Z height of your printer
Of course, the idea is to avoid having to do it manually, in theory you only have to add a correct line of gcode in the print script end gcode script on Creality print printer settings.
Can be this one but i am not sure:
G90 ;Absolute positioning
; Levantar el cabezal al límite del eje Z G1 Z240 F3000 ; Adjust “240” to the max Z height of your printer
