    Does anybody have the settings for Prusaslicer (Slic3r PE)? I copied everything from MatterControl but I haven't been able to print. I'm not sure its auto-levelling either...

    Thanks!

    PS: I'm printing with ABS but the printer settings are what need to be set properly.

    Well, if you have a way to edit the startup GCode that the slicer is generating you can edit that to make sure that:
    1) it does the autoleveling
    2) Has the Z offset configured for the autoleveling

    That really is all you need.

    I found a configuration file for Slic3r, the forerunner of PrusaSlicer, which appears to work on my R1+. However, since I have replaced the glass bed with a Geckotek bed, I need to make sure the nozzle isn't heated before doing the auto leveling sequence. I copied the following commands from S3D's Starting Script:

    G28 ; home all axes
    G29 ; probe the bed
    G1 Z5 F5000 ; lift nozzle
    M109 S[first_layer_temperature] ; set the extruder temp and wait
    G1 X0 Y0 ; move to begin wipe
    G1 X20 Z0 F4800 ; wipe

    On printing, the bed heats, the auto leveling gets performed, but nothing happens after the 9th touch. The extruder does not lift and stays put with the nozzle melting a divot in the Gecko bed.

    Any suggestions?

    Looks like your G1 is getting skipped or omitted.
    If it worked in S3D or another slicer I'd blame the slicer or the host program. Make sure the sliced output looks like what you specified...

    Thanks, Mark,
    You're exactly right. I re-sliced the file and it prints just fine. I'm not sure what was off, but I can't argue with results.
