Altering G-Code

Contrary to what people have said it is possible to alter G-Code post slicing and run it on the printer. I warn you that editing the gcode will be done at your own risk as you can really mess up your printer if you don’t know what you are doing.

  • “Export sliced plate file” from Bambu Studio
  • Unzip the 3mf file and locate the .gcode file in the “Metadata” folder
  • Edit the G-code in any text editor and save
  • Transfer the edited .gcode file to an appropriate SD card
  • Insert the SD into the printer and power cycle the printer so it will read the SD card.
  • Select the .gcode file and print it. Note that you cannot deselect bed leveling, flow calibration or time-lapse and you can’t reassign the ams filament to be used from the printer interface.
