Resuming prints

Hey, is there any chance you could help me resume my print. I havent been able to figure out how to edit the gcode myself.

22

Share the gcode and exact height of the model and maybe a picture would be nice. You have to @xchrisd tag me, then i get a notification email.

Thanks for getting back to me. Iā€™m printing a scaled up human skull for some Halloween stuff and the printer disconnected from the PC and someone pressed confirm on the printer causing it to abort.

Anyways I would like to be able to resume from where it left off. I havent touched the print so it should be in the exact same place and its height comes between 127.21mm - 127.68mm.
Here is a link to the photo and the gcode

Sorry, forgot to tag lol @xchrisd

Hey, unfortunately i was hit by corona and missed the thread.
Now i lay in the bed and wait for getting betterā€¦

26

@xchrisd Iā€™ll wait. I cant print anything unless I move its position, which might mess up the recovery attempt

Hey @firefingers, i apologise for the long delay. I am really sorry about.
Now my gmail sync is back on so i will get notifications again in the future.

Here is your gcode with a start height of 127.32:

Be sure to remove the first cleaning-extrusion before the nozzle hits the start point.
As always, there is no guarantee, please watch the print with a hand at the power switch or safety stop to minimize the risk of crashing.
Hope you get a nice print.

@xchrisd I have just accidentally stopped my print. Can you assist if I provide the gcode and position? has any resume functionality been added?

29

You could provide the needed information and i will see in the afternoon of mez time.

Otherwise you could search the forum, there is a how to posted but cant remember from who.

Note, i am a user like you, no snapmaker staff.

Thank you so much for your reply. I did some looking into g and m code and with the above posted file that you did for another user, I was able to figure it out after about a hour. I was able to finish my print almost seamlessly. (there is a ā€œboldā€ line where i resumed the print)

Is the a way to find my current coordinates if the printer is still at the coordinate now?

32

This is depending on your situation.
If your printer is restarted, no your coordinates canā€™t be restored.
If your job got aborted, you should be able to see your current coordinates if you connect your printer to luban.

33

I accidentally hit the e-stop and killed the print at 93%. Itā€™s stopped in itā€™s tracks at the exact coordinates I needed it to start from again but I wasnā€™t sure if there was a way to extract those coordinates so I could find it in the g-code and start again from there vs doing the extremely inaccurate ā€œmeasure the height of the printer headā€ way.

@xchrisd - Man, you are one super nice person. Kudos and good karma to you.

If I could assist you, let me know and share the gcode and last position :wink:

36

Iā€™ve used this guide in the past. Youā€™ll never get 100% prefect resume, but itā€™s very closeā€¦

Good reason why you should always save your gcode when running directly from Luban, etc

37

I was printing, but at 90 percent the filament dislodged so i reloaded it, but when i went to press Run/resume it displayed an error but then the printhead started to move. It went back to its last place but nothing happened. I then pressed pause to see if that would fix it, but now the pause button is just greyed out and loading and i cant fix it. Can someone maybe help me fix the gcode

NVM I got it to qwork

Care to share?
