  1. Printer Name

  2. Build plate dimensions. These are used to calculate the maximum dimensions for printed models

  3. Origin Offset Sets the origin offsets for the printer. For Making origin at Bottom Left - Enter offset values as half the size of X and Y Build plate dimensions.

  4. Start G-code. This code runs before every gcode. It contains moves to home the print head, extrude some material and more

  5. End g-code. This code runs after every g-code. It contains code to move the head back to the home position and cooldown both the build plate and nozzle(s)

Newly added printer goes in the Printer list automatically. Any custom g-code added to the new printer is used whenever slicing is done using this printer.
