Print head position at the finish of the print

Hi Guys I’m new to this game and I’m frustrated to say the least my Snapmker Original will print fine but at the end, the head sits on top of the print and not move away from it so it ends up burning the top is there a solution to this or is it something I’m not doing correctly in the settings I’m using Simply3D to print if there is an easy answer could anyone let me know thank you
Sorry if this has already been sorted in another post but i couldn’t find anything about this specific problem

Hey @Pepe999, there is a profile for simplify3d on the support site or in the forum.

You have to put a end-gcode in the category skripts in simplify3d to move the head elsewhere:

Start Gcode:

G28 ;Home
G1 Z15.0 F6000 ;Move the platform down 15mm
G0 X-4 Y-1 Z0
G92 E0
G1 F200 E20
G92 E0

End Gcode: (EDITED BY ME)

M104 S0; turn off hotend
M140 S0; turn off bed
G92 E1
G1 E-1 F300;Retract the filament
G1 X0 Y125 Z120; move to position
M84; disable steppers

You have to try but it should work for you,- with older firmwares the z would collidate with the end of the module at restarting again.- i had a “G1 X0 Y125 Z120; move to position” to not collidate at my original (i haven´t made a firmwareupdate), i think you could edit Z120 to Z125, i don´t know.

Hope this helps!
