How to change the park position during pause and end of print?

Ho-whizzle

Well-known member
Hello,

I hope you’re all doing well.

I’m trying to fine-tune my Micron Plus so that when I pause or end a print, the tool moves to a desired position rather than its default position in the top-right corner, which causes it to crash into the umbilical cord and disconnect the cable behind the toolhead.

I’ve checked my printer configuration file, but nothing stands out. I’m not a complete novice when it comes to reading the code, but I’m no expert either. If you could help me identify which part I need to change and how to modify it, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have attached the printer config for you all.

It seems like you have two [gcode_macro PRINT_END] macros?
Did you add one yourself?

Anyhow, both contain G0 X{th.axis_maximum.x//2} Y{th.axis_maximum.y - 2} F3600 ; park nozzle at rear
That tells the printer where to go. axis maximum gets defined a few lines before that.

Your umbilical cord should not disconnect, no matter where the print head is. Else it would do the same when you print something larger.

I can't remember how PAUSE works, I think you have to overrride the base one.

Oh i didnt know about the print_end dupicate! thanks,

If I want to park the tool head 30mm X and Y further from the max axis, what should I put in and where I put?
 
For custom pause placement you need to create a _CLIENT_VARIABLE macro in printer.cfg if you look at the top of mainsail.cfg it explains setting a custom pause position.
