Now you copy the lines of GCode into separated file and modify the GCode as follows.You just found the place where to split the Gcode file! Open generated GCode and look for:įor printing at 0.1mm resolution you are looking for lines: You are going to print the model at 0.2mm resolution. You are looking for comment AFTER_LAYER_CHANGE followed by the XX.X where XX.X is desired layer.įor example: you want to print first 2mm of the model in one color and the rest in the second color. Secondly you choose the cut layer using Slic3r then you open the generated file in text editor such as a regular Notepad.These comments are added by Slic3r and determines where in the GCode the printer is moving from one layer to another. But let's move on.įirstly you need to download Slic3r or Slic3r PE (recommendet) in order to see the comment AFTER_LAYER_CHANGE in the generated GCode file. You should never changes any value in the GCode if you don't know the result. GCode files containing the instructions for the printer such as movement of the motors or the temperature of the heatbed.

It might sound strange, but every 3D printer is capable of layer-based multicolor print by spliting the generated GCode file into multiple (one file for each color). Tutorial for the multicolor print using any printer

Please, share your makes, it makes my day to see that anyone prints me models. I basically just move the text and resize the sign. Remixed version of sign() by Tech Outreach.
