Hey guys, Me again.

I received and found the Cura Profile document for the Duo 12x12, but it does not work with the latest software version. 

Can someone who has the latest version help me set it up. I'm a newb so I would need some basic handholding through it so I don't mess it up completely.

Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, you can't just throw the profile at a new version of Cura, but you can fill in various properties that match the profile in the older version. Just carry over the data that is relevant to you and it should work, I have mine working on Cura 4.7.1 as of right now. The most important thing i can say about Cura is watch for the Printhead Settings menu when putting in your X,Y,Z limits. Anything under the 'Printhead Settings' needs to be set to 0, this has screwed up offsets before.

Thank you for this code stuff. I will give it a shot!. Curious - what do you do to prep the printer before printing. I'm not sure if the settings on the machine are accurate as I've struggled immensely with prints.

Also, can you copy/paste the G-Code text? when I'm implementing it in my "new printer" dialog it looks very different and has a lot more data when I scroll through it. Also - what are the extruder settings you use?

Thanks!
