Set a Timer to start a print

good morning, by any chance somebody knows if there is a way to set a timer for a print?

You can try to put G4 command manually at beginning of the gcode, where you can set desired amount of time to wait, then you can start the print immediately and leave.

It could be implemented in the software. It would be a very useful function

yes, a feature like that in the Bambu Lab Studio would be really good.
However, it would be even better if you could choose the end time when printing should be finished and determine the start time itself based on the forecast printing time.

We use the printer privately and would like it to start when we are away, so a timer like this would be very useful.

Would be a really great feature to have this (start and end) as parameter readily available in the software. The printer can be quite noisy and, I don’t want to print at night, but then I want to start as soon as possible in the morning.
I’ll try the dwell command, but it would be great to have it already in the slicer (which, I guess, would be a very simple integration).

Also I think it would be nice to have a print queue. Once a print is finished, you get a prompt such as "has the printbed been cleared for starting the next job in line? Yes / No / Cancle, … "
Does anyone know how this can be converted into a feature request with BambuLabs?
