I used Prusaslicer to add a “pause at layer” in the gcode then transferred it to SM for printing. However, it didn’t pause at all and finished til the end. I thought if it’s in the Gcode then the machine should pause? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

Ah, I was thinking of M600, not “pause at layer”. The octoprint plugin that enables it is Rewrite M600 - For M600 Unsupported Looks like it just does some gcode when it sees an M600 (filament change): M117 Filament Change G91 M83 G1 Z{zDistance} E-0.8 F4500 M82 G90 G1 X0 Y0 Then it waits for the …

@Edwin is there an estimated time frame for the next machine firmware update?

I was told that tests have completed. The next firmware update is about to be released in mid-May. Sorry for the inconvenience. Edwin

Sounds great, thank you for the update.

Thanks everyone, looking forward to the new firmware update!

@Edwin , will M600 be back ported to the Original firmware?

Not yet. M600 can be used with Snapmaker Firmware 1.12.1 or later version. Sorry for the inconvenience. Edwin

Does Snapmaker support pause at layer?
