Start GCODE
With Nossle Clean (Cura 2.6.) and Octoprint 1.3.11
[UPDATE 06/2019 - only works with Cura 3.2]
- See bug: https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/1036
- This does NOT work (comment out M190/M109) http://blog.mike-greene.com/fixing-cura-temperature-resets/
First of all: ONLY put the code into Cura! DO NOT PUT it into Octoprint or both. This would mess things up.
End Codes will remain the same.
