Using Post Processing to change g-code

Post by Sid Blick »

I'm working in a print that I want to finish with a different color than it starts with. I'm am using Cura and a Sovol SV04 with dual extruders, so I can have different colors loaded into each extruder. What I'm having trouble with is finding the code to get the printer to switch extruders. Does anyone know the Marlin post processing code to switch extruders? Or do I have to do a manual filament change

Great question, I don't know! Maybe a Sovol group on Facebook? YouTube?

This forum is the closest I come to getting on social media. If nobody here knows how to do it, I'll just have to do it the hard way.
