I think I have a problem with my 1month old X1C. If I just home all after I turn on the printer the stepper motors never disengage after the homing is done. It takes around 20 minutes after the homing I hear the MC fan go off and then the motors are disabled.
This also happens after a print is finished.
Is this normal?
This is normal. Why do you want to disable the steppermotor?
Do a power cycle to disable the steppermotors.
I thought this line in the end gcode was to lower power on the steppers.

What I am confused about is how the motors lose power after about 20 mins when a print is finished and then the MC fan shuts off. Just seems like an odd way
M17 is to enable steppers.
M18, M84 disables the steppers.
EXACTLY, thats what I thought… This is actually the last line in the end gcode for Bambu Slicer… Would you be so kind to let me know what your last line in the Bambu Slicer End Gcode is for your X1C… After that line it actually reads…
M17 X0.8 Y0.8 Z0.5 ; lower motor current to 45% power
This is what’s confusing me… I’m not new to 3d printing I just never seen a 3d printer hold its steppers enabled for so long after a print is finished.
I’m just curious if there is something wrong with my printer or maybe control board.
Thank you
I got the same line.

Thanks for posting it
