File type
- Variations of G-Code files used by your printer. CANVAS
supports G-Code (.gco, .g), .X3G, and .makerbot.
Firmware type
- Firmware used by your printer. For the majority of
printers, '5D Absolute' will be appropriate
Firmware Purge
- Some printers include a hard-coded purge when
beginning a print. Because this purge is not in the print file, calculated
splice lengths will all be incorrectly short by this amount. If your printer
has a firmware purge, estimate the amount of filament it uses here
Use Firmware Retraction
- Some firmware will have retractions hard-
coded and you can use these instead of retraction settings in your Style
Profile. If
you're not sure about this feature, leave it unselected.
