This is what makes me laugh, you mention it on here about bambu studio implementation of this and the reaction is like trying to get a hamster to make you a sandwich.
Printing PETG @245. the unused nozzle gets set to 205 while not being used. this is just a small 2 color test print, so i don’t know if it would get set to a lower temp if not needed for a longer period of time. hope this helps.
The pic below is after nozzle change. The left nozzle is at 222 and on its way down to 205
Nice, do both nozzles stay at print temperature on first layer? So far the H2D fix is lacking. If doing a print that uses both nozzles, both nozzles are at print temperature for the entire first layer. If this is corrected for the C I’m hoping it carries over to the D.
It’s fully integrated into the nightlies now… As an aside, the H2D now appears to be fully functional with the latest builds, nozzle detection and proper nozzle idling is now working for the H2D.
As an FYI H2C and H2D are now fully supported in the nightlies. Can even start drying from Orca now. I’ve been full on OrcaSlicer for the past few days and will tentatively say for the H2D at least that it’s not missing any of the functionality of Bambu Studio.
As far as Linux is concerned I need to use Creo for my day job so am stuck with windows whether I like it or not. When I started using Pro/E, now Creo, it was on a Sparc Workstation and back in the day I had a fair handle on Unix but those memories are now covered in dust and cobwebs. I very recently installed Mint on an old laptop for grins and am impressed enough that I’m going to switch my media server over to some form of it and try to figure out how to get the Emby server up and running on it.
