Getting rid of (some) Bambu (X1C) Purge Lines

3D Printing

Sometimes you may need all the building plate space you can get. Or you have build your own G10 / FR4 plate, and found out you just misaligned the top surface, making it impossible to print the rear purge lines... (Oops 😳)

Here's how to fix that...


No purge lines!

What we don't want:



What we want:



How we fix that

1. Start Bambu Studio

2. Prepare or Preview tab

3. Edit preset


4. Machine gcode

5. Go to the bottom of Machine start G-code



It will currently show something like:

T1000

G1 E{-retraction_length[initial_no_support_extruder]} F1800

G1 X128.0 Y253.0 Z0.2 F24000.0;Move to start position

G1 E{retraction_length[initial_no_support_extruder]} F1800

M109 S{nozzle_temperature_initial_layer[initial_no_support_extruder]}

G0 X253 E6.4 F{outer_wall_volumetric_speed/(0.3*0.6)    * 60}

G0 Y128 E6.4

G0 X252.5

G0 Y252.5 E6.4

G0 X128 E6.4


6. Change this to:

T1000

; G1 E{-retraction_length[initial_no_support_extruder]} F1800

; G1 X128.0 Y253.0 Z0.2 F24000.0;Move to start position

; G1 E{retraction_length[initial_no_support_extruder]} F1800

M109 S{nozzle_temperature_initial_layer[initial_no_support_extruder]}

; G0 X253 E6.4 F{outer_wall_volumetric_speed/(0.3*0.6)    * 60}

; G0 Y128 E6.4

; G0 X252.5

; G0 Y252.5 E6.4

; G0 X128 E6.4


7. Save this as a new Preset

8. Now select this preset to avoid the purge lines.
