Help - my first drawing-Sketup-Slic-Mach3

Post by charles »

I need help. I did the drawing in sketup, converted to G code by slic, and I load the Gcode MACH3. Do not adjust extrunder on the table. (G92 E0 reset extrunsion distance).

In Slicer, under the printer tab, you need to choose Gcode flavor of Mach3/EMC It is exporting E codes for your extruder axis, and Mach uses A as the axis letter. Changing the gcode flavor will fix that problem.
