Macro Introduction

Print Start Macro

• Set PRINT_START as the macro for starting printing, customize actions before printing
• Note that the macro name can be customized as long as it is referenced in the start g-code script

[gcode_macro PRINT_START]
gcode:
    G92 E0                         # Reset extruder
    BED_MESH_CLEAR                 # Unload mesh bed
    G28                            # Home all axes
    #Z_TILT_ADJUST                 # Gantries leveling
    #quad_gantry_level             # Gantries leveling
    #G28                           # Home all axes
    G1 Z20 F3000                   # Move nozzle away from the heat bed
    BED_MESH_PROFILE LOAD=default  # Load mesh bed

Leveling and Bed Mesh Configuration Guide

1. Leveling Method Selection

• Z_TILT_ADJUST and quad_gantry_level are mutually exclusive leveling options
• Please choose one based on your equipment structure, do not use both
• If not applicable, please delete or comment out the corresponding configuration
• It is recommended to home the axes once after leveling

2. Bed Mesh Configuration Standards

BED_MESH_PROFILE LOAD=default

• Only a single bed mesh configuration can be loaded; multiple configurations cannot be enabled simultaneously
• In BED_MESH_PROFILE LOAD=default, default is the preset configuration name
• If no mesh bed has been created or the mesh bed is named differently, errors may occur

3. Standard Bed Mesh Calibration Command

BED_MESH_CALIBRATE horizontal_move_z=2 METHOD=rapid_scan

• horizontal_move_z=2: Nozzle lift height during calibration (unit: mm)
• METHOD=rapid_scan: Use fast scanning calibration method

4. Adaptive Calibration Command

BED_MESH_CALIBRATE adaptive=1

• Simplified command specifically designed for auto-leveling sensors
• Applicable to sensor systems such as TAP, klicky, PL08
• The calibration height and movement method are automatically controlled by the sensor, no manual parameters required

Print End Macro

• Set PRINT_END as the macro for ending printing, customize actions after printing
• Note that the macro name can be customized as long as it is referenced in the end g-code script
