Hello, I am looking to use Kiri:Moto on a Chromebook for a student project. I am new to 3D printing and would like some help setting up the profile for this printer. Any help would be much appreciated.
I feel as though I should add that I am the IT guy for the school and am trying to allow students to work with 3D printers.
I’d say start with the “Flashforge Guider II” device and click “customize” then change the build volume. Print a simple test box using that profile.
Another route is to import a Cura profile or take the .gcode output Cura generates for a simple box for that printer and compare the header/foot (beginning and end) from the .gcode
If you’re not familiar with gcode, the header/top of the file sets up the temperature for the nozzle and bed and does other initialization tasks (set units, home the head, etc) and the footer basically just moves the print head out of the way and shuts down the heat and fans.
Is there a way to get Kiri:Moto to provide a .gx or .g file? That seems to be the only file types that will show up on the FlashForge. Kiri:Moto appears to only provide .g.code files.
annoyingly, it is a needlessly proprietary format that adds absolutely nothing other slicers and printers haven’t achieved with standard .gcode (namely previews). many years ago I used a command-line program called gpx to transform standard .gcode into .gx files for flashforge printers. I can’t build this into KM since it’s neither a library nor in a language I can port easily to JS to run in the browser 
so that doesn’t help your chromebook situation.
it was also possible at one point in the past to run standard .gcode files (renamed to .g) on flashforge printers. but in a firmware update somewhere along the way, they started blocking this.
Well thanks anyhow. I’ll see about enabling linux on chromebooks to get flashprint running then.
