Cura Gcode Help

[JiminSTLouis]

Hello printers.

I recently converted my Ender 3 from a 220x220 to a 400x400 print bed size (Ender Extender kit). I’m trying to disable the end stops with Gcode M211 S0 in the printer settings but it’s not taking. The printer firmware still thinks I have a 220x220 but the Gcode is supposed to disable that.

Does anyone have experience on how to enter Gcodes in Cura?

Thanks

If you are talking about what it posts - it posts what the software endstops are set as even if they are off and it's current position. You have not changed the firmware or input any new bed sizes so that won't change. You just told it to ignore them. You should be good.

As for cura I dunno if you can send commands directly, but basically you can create a notepad document and input "M211 S0" and save it as "turnoffendstops.gcode" and run it on your printer. I use pronterface to connect to my printer and send commands normally.

I ordered an Arduino Uno board to update the firmware in the printer.
