Code: Select all

Regardless of what slicer you use, it would be a pretty trivial script to write to parse the total extrusion amount for each move and divide it into a colon-separated form at a specified ratio.ZakRabbit wrote:I can't figure out how to embed, but there's a video showing RGB printing with one of these hot ends.

I gotta start learning how to code... I'm good at the mechanical stuff, but I am missing out on the control side of things.IMBoring25 wrote:At least in RepRapFirmware, color mixing is implemented by defining a tool to use multiple extruder drives using the M563 command and then issuing your extrusion commands for each of those extruders in a colon-separated form, i.e. G1 E1:1, which would extrude 1mm of filament from each of two drives the active tool is configured to use (assuming relative extrusion distances and units in mm).
