machine_scale_fan_speed_zero_to_one | | - | - | - | - | Scale Fan Speed To 0-1 | Scale the fan speed to be between 0 and 1 instead of between 0 and 256. |
layer_height | 0.1 | - | - | - | - | Layer Height | The height of each layer in mm. Higher values produce faster prints in lower resolution, lower values produce slower prints in higher resolution. |
layer_height_0 | 0.3 | - | - | - | - | Initial Layer Height | The height of the initial layer in mm. A thicker initial layer makes adhesion to the build plate easier. |
line_width | 0.4 | - | - | - | - | Line Width | Width of a single line. Generally, the width of each line should correspond to the width of the nozzle. However, slightly reducing this value could produce better prints. |
initial_layer_line_width_factor | 100 | - | - | - | - | Initial Layer Line Width | Multiplier of the line width on the first layer. Increasing this could improve bed adhesion. |
wall_extruder_nr | -1 | - | - | - | - | Wall Extruder | The extruder train used for printing the walls. This is used in multi-extrusion. |
wall_thickness | 0.8 | - | - | - | - | Wall Thickness | The thickness of the walls in the horizontal direction. This value divided by the wall line width defines the number of walls. |
wall_transition_length | 0.4 | - | - | - | - | Wall Transition Length | When transitioning between different numbers of walls as the part becomes thinner, a certain amount of space is allotted to split or join the wall lines. |
wall_distribution_count | 1 | - | - | - | - | Wall Distribution Count | The number of walls, counted from the center, over which the variation needs to be spread. Lower values mean that the outer walls don't change in width. |
wall_transition_angle | 10 | - | - | - | - | Wall Transitioning Threshold Angle | When to create transitions between even and odd numbers of walls. A wedge shape with an angle greater than this setting will not have transitions and no walls will be printed in the center to fill the remaining space. Reducing this setting reduces the number and length of these center walls, but may leave gaps or overextrude. |
wall_transition_filter_distance | 100 | - | - | - | - | Wall Transitioning Filter Distance | If it would be transitioning back and forth between different numbers of walls in quick succession, don't transition at all. Remove transitions if they are closer together than this distance. |
wall_transition_filter_deviation | 0.1 | - | - | - | - | Wall Transitioning Filter Margin | Prevent transitioning back and forth between one extra wall and one less. This margin extends the range of line widths which follow to [Minimum Wall Line Width - Margin, 2 * Minimum Wall Line Width + Margin]. Increasing this margin reduces the number of transitions, which reduces the number of extrusion starts/stops and travel time. However, large line width variation can lead to under- or overextrusion problems. |
wall_0_wipe_dist | 0.2 | - | - | - | - | Outer Wall Wipe Distance | Distance of a travel move inserted after the outer wall, to hide the Z seam better. |
wall_0_inset | 0 | - | - | - | - | Outer Wall Inset | Inset applied to the path of the outer wall. If the outer wall is smaller than the nozzle, and printed after the inner walls, use this offset to get the hole in the nozzle to overlap with the inner walls instead of the outside of the model. |
optimize_wall_printing_order | | - | - | - | - | Optimize Wall Printing Order | Optimize the order in which walls are printed so as to reduce the number of retractions and the distance travelled. Most parts will benefit from this being enabled but some may actually take longer so please compare the print time estimates with and without optimization. First layer is not optimized when choosing brim as build plate adhesion type. |
inset_direction | inside_out | - | - | - | - | Wall Ordering | Determines the order in which walls are printed. Printing outer walls earlier helps with dimensional accuracy, as faults from inner walls cannot propagate to the outside. However printing them later allows them to stack better when overhangs are printed. When there is an uneven amount of total innner walls, the 'center last line' is always printed last. |
alternate_extra_perimeter | | - | - | - | - | Alternate Extra Wall | Prints an extra wall at every other layer. This way infill gets caught between these extra walls, resulting in stronger prints. |
min_wall_line_width | 0.3 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Wall Line Width | For thin structures around once or twice the nozzle size, the line widths need to be altered to adhere to the thickness of the model. This setting controls the minimum line width allowed for the walls. The minimum line widths inherently also determine the maximum line widths, since we transition from N to N+1 walls at some geometry thickness where the N walls are wide and the N+1 walls are narrow. The widest possible wall line is twice the Minimum Wall Line Width. |
fill_outline_gaps | 1 | - | - | - | - | Print Thin Walls | Print pieces of the model which are horizontally thinner than the nozzle size. |
min_feature_size | 0.1 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Feature Size | Minimum thickness of thin features. Model features that are thinner than this value will not be printed, while features thicker than the Minimum Feature Size will be widened to the Minimum Wall Line Width. |
min_bead_width | 0.2 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Thin Wall Line Width | Width of the wall that will replace thin features (according to the Minimum Feature Size) of the model. If the Minimum Wall Line Width is thinner than the thickness of the feature, the wall will become as thick as the feature itself. |
xy_offset | 0 | - | - | - | - | Horizontal Expansion | Amount of offset applied to all polygons in each layer. Positive values can compensate for too big holes; negative values can compensate for too small holes. |
xy_offset_layer_0 | 0 | - | - | - | - | Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion | Amount of offset applied to all polygons in the first layer. A negative value can compensate for squishing of the first layer known as "elephant's foot". |
hole_xy_offset | 0 | - | - | - | - | Hole Horizontal Expansion | Amount of offset applied to all holes in each layer. Positive values increase the size of the holes, negative values reduce the size of the holes. |
z_seam_type | sharpest_corner | - | - | - | - | Z Seam Alignment | Starting point of each path in a layer. When paths in consecutive layers start at the same point a vertical seam may show on the print. When aligning these near a user specified location, the seam is easiest to remove. When placed randomly the inaccuracies at the paths' start will be less noticeable. When taking the shortest path the print will be quicker. |
z_seam_position | back | - | - | - | - | Z Seam Position | The position near where to start printing each part in a layer. |
z_seam_corner | z_seam_corner_inner | - | - | - | - | Seam Corner Preference | Control whether corners on the model outline influence the position of the seam. None means that corners have no influence on the seam position. Hide Seam makes the seam more likely to occur on an inside corner. Expose Seam makes the seam more likely to occur on an outside corner. Hide or Expose Seam makes the seam more likely to occur at an inside or outside corner. Smart Hiding allows both inside and outside corners, but chooses inside corners more frequently, if appropriate. |
z_seam_relative | | - | - | - | - | Z Seam Relative | When enabled, the z seam coordinates are relative to each part's centre. When disabled, the coordinates define an absolute position on the build plate. |
roofing_extruder_nr | -1 | - | - | - | - | Top Surface Skin Extruder | The extruder train used for printing the top most skin. This is used in multi-extrusion. |
roofing_layer_count | 0 | - | - | - | - | Top Surface Skin Layers | The number of top most skin layers. Usually only one top most layer is sufficient to generate higher quality top surfaces. |
top_bottom_extruder_nr | -1 | - | - | - | - | Top/Bottom Extruder | The extruder train used for printing the top and bottom skin. This is used in multi-extrusion. |
top_bottom_thickness | 0.8 | - | - | - | - | Top/Bottom Thickness | The thickness of the top/bottom layers in the print. This value divided by the layer height defines the number of top/bottom layers. |
top_bottom_pattern | lines | - | - | - | - | Top/Bottom Pattern | The pattern of the top/bottom layers. |
top_bottom_pattern_0 | lines | - | - | - | - | Bottom Pattern Initial Layer | The pattern on the bottom of the print on the first layer. |
connect_skin_polygons | | - | - | - | - | Connect Top/Bottom Polygons | Connect top/bottom skin paths where they run next to each other. For the concentric pattern enabling this setting greatly reduces the travel time, but because the connections can happen midway over infill this feature can reduce the top surface quality. |
skin_monotonic | | - | - | - | - | Monotonic Top/Bottom Order | Print top/bottom lines in an ordering that causes them to always overlap with adjacent lines in a single direction. This takes slightly more time to print, but makes flat surfaces look more consistent. |
skin_angles | [ ] | - | - | - | - | Top/Bottom Line Directions | A list of integer line directions to use when the top/bottom layers use the lines or zig zag pattern. Elements from the list are used sequentially as the layers progress and when the end of the list is reached, it starts at the beginning again. The list items are separated by commas and the whole list is contained in square brackets. Default is an empty list which means use the traditional default angles (45 and 135 degrees). |
skin_no_small_gaps_heuristic | | - | - | - | - | No Skin in Z Gaps | When the model has small vertical gaps of only a few layers, there should normally be skin around those layers in the narrow space. Enable this setting to not generate skin if the vertical gap is very small. This improves printing time and slicing time, but technically leaves infill exposed to the air. |
skin_outline_count | 1 | - | - | - | - | Extra Skin Wall Count | Replaces the outermost part of the top/bottom pattern with a number of concentric lines. Using one or two lines improves roofs that start on infill material. |
ironing_enabled | | - | - | - | - | Enable Ironing | Go over the top surface one additional time, but this time extruding very little material. This is meant to melt the plastic on top further, creating a smoother surface. The pressure in the nozzle chamber is kept high so that the creases in the surface are filled with material. |
ironing_only_highest_layer | | - | - | - | - | Iron Only Highest Layer | Only perform ironing on the very last layer of the mesh. This saves time if the lower layers don't need a smooth surface finish. |
ironing_pattern | zigzag | - | - | - | - | Ironing Pattern | The pattern to use for ironing top surfaces. |
ironing_monotonic | | - | - | - | - | Monotonic Ironing Order | Print ironing lines in an ordering that causes them to always overlap with adjacent lines in a single direction. This takes slightly more time to print, but makes flat surfaces look more consistent. |
ironing_line_spacing | 0.1 | - | - | - | - | Ironing Line Spacing | The distance between the lines of ironing. |
ironing_flow | 10 | - | - | - | - | Ironing Flow | The amount of material, relative to a normal skin line, to extrude during ironing. Keeping the nozzle filled helps filling some of the crevices of the top surface, but too much results in overextrusion and blips on the side of the surface. |
ironing_inset | 0.35 | - | - | - | - | Ironing Inset | A distance to keep from the edges of the model. Ironing all the way to the edge of the mesh may result in a jagged edge on your print. |
speed_ironing | 20 | - | - | - | - | Ironing Speed | The speed at which to pass over the top surface. |
acceleration_ironing | 3000 | - | - | - | - | Ironing Acceleration | The acceleration with which ironing is performed. |
jerk_ironing | 20 | - | - | - | - | Ironing Jerk | The maximum instantaneous velocity change while performing ironing. |
skin_overlap | 5 | - | - | - | - | Skin Overlap Percentage | Adjust the amount of overlap between the walls and (the endpoints of) the skin-centerlines, as a percentage of the line widths of the skin lines and the innermost wall. A slight overlap allows the walls to connect firmly to the skin. Note that, given an equal skin and wall line-width, any percentage over 50% may already cause any skin to go past the wall, because at that point the position of the nozzle of the skin-extruder may already reach past the middle of the wall. |
skin_preshrink | 1 | - | - | - | - | Skin Removal Width | The largest width of skin areas which are to be removed. Every skin area smaller than this value will disappear. This can help in limiting the amount of time and material spent on printing top/bottom skin at slanted surfaces in the model. |
expand_skins_expand_distance | 1 | - | - | - | - | Skin Expand Distance | The distance the skins are expanded into the infill. Higher values makes the skin attach better to the infill pattern and makes the walls on neighboring layers adhere better to the skin. Lower values save amount of material used. |
max_skin_angle_for_expansion | 90 | - | - | - | - | Maximum Skin Angle for Expansion | Top and/or bottom surfaces of your object with an angle larger than this setting, won't have their top/bottom skin expanded. This avoids expanding the narrow skin areas that are created when the model surface has a near vertical slope. An angle of 0° is horizontal and will cause no skin to be expanded, while an angle of 90° is vertical and will cause all skin to be expanded. |
min_skin_width_for_expansion | 0 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Skin Width for Expansion | Skin areas narrower than this are not expanded. This avoids expanding the narrow skin areas that are created when the model surface has a slope close to the vertical. |
infill_extruder_nr | -1 | - | - | - | - | Infill Extruder | The extruder train used for printing infill. This is used in multi-extrusion. |
infill_sparse_density | 20 | - | - | - | - | Infill Density | Adjusts the density of infill of the print. |
infill_pattern | grid | - | - | - | - | Infill Pattern | The pattern of the infill material of the print. The line and zig zag infill swap direction on alternate layers, reducing material cost. The grid, triangle, tri-hexagon, cubic, octet, quarter cubic, cross and concentric patterns are fully printed every layer. Gyroid, cubic, quarter cubic and octet infill change with every layer to provide a more equal distribution of strength over each direction. Lightning infill tries to minimize the infill, by only supporting the ceiling of the object. |
zig_zaggify_infill | | - | - | - | - | Connect Infill Lines | Connect the ends where the infill pattern meets the inner wall using a line which follows the shape of the inner wall. Enabling this setting can make the infill adhere to the walls better and reduce the effects of infill on the quality of vertical surfaces. Disabling this setting reduces the amount of material used. |
connect_infill_polygons | 1 | - | - | - | - | Connect Infill Polygons | Connect infill paths where they run next to each other. For infill patterns which consist of several closed polygons, enabling this setting greatly reduces the travel time. |
infill_angles | [ ] | - | - | - | - | Infill Line Directions | A list of integer line directions to use. Elements from the list are used sequentially as the layers progress and when the end of the list is reached, it starts at the beginning again. The list items are separated by commas and the whole list is contained in square brackets. Default is an empty list which means use the traditional default angles (45 and 135 degrees for the lines and zig zag patterns and 45 degrees for all other patterns). |
infill_offset_x | 0 | - | - | - | - | Infill X Offset | The infill pattern is moved this distance along the X axis. |
infill_offset_y | 0 | - | - | - | - | Infill Y Offset | The infill pattern is moved this distance along the Y axis. |
infill_randomize_start_location | | - | - | - | - | Randomize Infill Start | Randomize which infill line is printed first. This prevents one segment becoming the strongest, but it does so at the cost of an additional travel move. |
infill_multiplier | 1 | - | - | - | - | Infill Line Multiplier | Convert each infill line to this many lines. The extra lines do not cross over each other, but avoid each other. This makes the infill stiffer, but increases print time and material usage. |
infill_wall_line_count | 0 | - | - | - | - | Extra Infill Wall Count | Add extra walls around the infill area. Such walls can make top/bottom skin lines sag down less which means you need less top/bottom skin layers for the same quality at the cost of some extra material.
This feature can combine with the Connect Infill Polygons to connect all the infill into a single extrusion path without the need for travels or retractions if configured right. |
sub_div_rad_add | 0.4 | - | - | - | - | Cubic Subdivision Shell | An addition to the radius from the center of each cube to check for the boundary of the model, as to decide whether this cube should be subdivided. Larger values lead to a thicker shell of small cubes near the boundary of the model. |
infill_overlap | 10 | - | - | - | - | Infill Overlap Percentage | The amount of overlap between the infill and the walls as a percentage of the infill line width. A slight overlap allows the walls to connect firmly to the infill. |
infill_wipe_dist | 0.04 | - | - | - | - | Infill Wipe Distance | Distance of a travel move inserted after every infill line, to make the infill stick to the walls better. This option is similar to infill overlap, but without extrusion and only on one end of the infill line. |
infill_sparse_thickness | 0.1 | - | - | - | - | Infill Layer Thickness | The thickness per layer of infill material. This value should always be a multiple of the layer height and is otherwise rounded. |
gradual_infill_steps | 0 | - | - | - | - | Gradual Infill Steps | Number of times to reduce the infill density by half when getting further below top surfaces. Areas which are closer to top surfaces get a higher density, up to the Infill Density. |
gradual_infill_step_height | 1.5 | - | - | - | - | Gradual Infill Step Height | The height of infill of a given density before switching to half the density. |
infill_before_walls | 1 | - | - | - | - | Infill Before Walls | Print the infill before printing the walls. Printing the walls first may lead to more accurate walls, but overhangs print worse. Printing the infill first leads to sturdier walls, but the infill pattern might sometimes show through the surface. |
min_infill_area | 0 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Infill Area | Don't generate areas of infill smaller than this (use skin instead). |
infill_support_enabled | | - | - | - | - | Infill Support | Print infill structures only where tops of the model should be supported. Enabling this reduces print time and material usage, but leads to ununiform object strength. |
infill_support_angle | 40 | - | - | - | - | Infill Overhang Angle | The minimum angle of internal overhangs for which infill is added. At a value of 0° objects are totally filled with infill, 90° will not provide any infill. |

retraction_extrusion_window | 4.5 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Extrusion Distance Window | The window in which the maximum retraction count is enforced. This value should be approximately the same as the retraction distance, so that effectively the number of times a retraction passes the same patch of material is limited. |

cool_min_layer_time | 5 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Layer Time | The minimum time spent in a layer. This forces the printer to slow down, to at least spend the time set here in one layer. This allows the printed material to cool down properly before printing the next layer. Layers may still take shorter than the minimal layer time if Lift Head is disabled and if the Minimum Speed would otherwise be violated. |
cool_min_speed | 10 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Speed | The minimum print speed, despite slowing down due to the minimum layer time. When the printer would slow down too much, the pressure in the nozzle would be too low and result in bad print quality. |

support_tree_branch_diameter | 2 | - | - | - | - | Tree Support Branch Diameter | The diameter of the thinnest branches of tree support. Thicker branches are more sturdy. Branches towards the base will be thicker than this. |
support_tree_max_diameter | 15 | - | - | - | - | Tree Support Trunk Diameter | The diameter of the widest branches of tree support. A thicker trunk is more sturdy; a thinner trunk takes up less space on the build plate. |
support_tree_branch_diameter_angle | 5 | - | - | - | - | Tree Support Branch Diameter Angle | The angle of the branches' diameter as they gradually become thicker towards the bottom. An angle of 0 will cause the branches to have uniform thickness over their length. A bit of an angle can increase stability of the tree support. |
support_tree_collision_resolution | 0.4 | - | - | - | - | Tree Support Collision Resolution | Resolution to compute collisions with to avoid hitting the model. Setting this lower will produce more accurate trees that fail less often, but increases slicing time dramatically. |

support_wall_count | 1 | - | - | - | - | Support Wall Line Count | The number of walls with which to surround support infill. Adding a wall can make support print more reliably and can support overhangs better, but increases print time and material used. |
support_interface_wall_count | 0 | - | - | - | - | Support Interface Wall Line Count | The number of walls with which to surround support interface. Adding a wall can make support print more reliably and can support overhangs better, but increases print time and material used. |

support_bottom_stair_step_width | 5 | - | - | - | - | Support Stair Step Maximum Width | The maximum width of the steps of the stair-like bottom of support resting on the model. A low value makes the support harder to remove, but too high values can lead to unstable support structures. |
support_bottom_stair_step_min_slope | 10 | - | - | - | - | Support Stair Step Minimum Slope Angle | The minimum slope of the area for stair-stepping to take effect.

brim_width | 8 | - | - | - | - | Brim Width | The distance from the model to the outermost brim line. A larger brim enhances adhesion to the build plate, but also reduces the effective print area. |
brim_gap | 0 | - | - | - | - | Brim Distance | The horizontal distance between the first brim line and the outline of the first layer of the print. A small gap can make the brim easier to remove while still providing the thermal benefits. |
brim_replaces_support | 1 | - | - | - | - | Brim Replaces Support | Enforce brim to be printed around the model even if that space would otherwise be occupied by support. This replaces some regions of the first layer of support by brim regions. |
brim_outside_only | 1 | - | - | - | - | Brim Only on Outside | Only print the brim on the outside of the model. This reduces the amount of brim you need to remove afterwards, while it doesn't reduce the bed adhesion that much. |
brim_inside_margin | 2.5 | - | - | - | - | Brim Inside Avoid Margin | A part fully enclosed inside another part can generate an outer brim that touches the inside of the other part. This removes all brim within this distance from internal holes. |
raft_margin | 15 | - | - | - | - | Raft Extra Margin | If the raft is enabled, this is the extra raft area around the model which is also given a raft. Increasing this margin will create a stronger raft while using more material and leaving less area for your print. |
raft_smoothing | 5 | - | - | - | - | Raft Smoothing | This setting controls how much inner corners in the raft outline are rounded. Inward corners are rounded to a semi circle with a radius equal to the value given here. This setting also removes holes in the raft outline which are smaller than such a circle. |

raft_surface_line_width | 0.4 | - | - | - | - | Raft Top Line Width | Width of the lines in the top surface of the raft. These can be thin lines so that the top of the raft becomes smooth. |
raft_surface_line_spacing | 0.4 | - | - | - | - | Raft Top Spacing | The distance between the raft lines for the top raft layers. The spacing should be equal to the line width, so that the surface is solid. |
raft_interface_layers | 1 | - | - | - | - | Raft Middle Layers | The number of layers between the base and the surface of the raft. These comprise the main thickness of the raft. Increasing this creates a thicker, sturdier raft. |

raft_interface_line_width | 0.7 | - | - | - | - | Raft Middle Line Width | Width of the lines in the middle raft layer. Making the second layer extrude more causes the lines to stick to the build plate. |
raft_interface_line_spacing | 0.9 | - | - | - | - | Raft Middle Spacing | The distance between the raft lines for the middle raft layer. The spacing of the middle should be quite wide, while being dense enough to support the top raft layers. |

meshfix_union_all | 1 | - | - | - | - | Union Overlapping Volumes | Ignore the internal geometry arising from overlapping volumes within a mesh and print the volumes as one. This may cause unintended internal cavities to disappear. |
meshfix_union_all_remove_holes | | - | - | - | - | Remove All Holes | Remove the holes in each layer and keep only the outside shape. This will ignore any invisible internal geometry. However, it also ignores layer holes which can be viewed from above or below. |
meshfix_extensive_stitching | | - | - | - | - | Extensive Stitching | Extensive stitching tries to stitch up open holes in the mesh by closing the hole with touching polygons. This option can introduce a lot of processing time. |
meshfix_keep_open_polygons | | - | - | - | - | Keep Disconnected Faces | Normally Cura tries to stitch up small holes in the mesh and remove parts of a layer with big holes. Enabling this option keeps those parts which cannot be stitched. This option should be used as a last resort option when everything else fails to produce proper g-code. |
multiple_mesh_overlap | 0.15 | - | - | - | - | Merged Meshes Overlap | Make meshes which are touching each other overlap a bit. This makes them bond together better. |
carve_multiple_volumes | 1 | - | - | - | - | Remove Mesh Intersection | Remove areas where multiple meshes are overlapping with each other. This may be used if merged dual material objects overlap with each other. |
alternate_carve_order | 1 | - | - | - | - | Alternate Mesh Removal | Switch to which mesh intersecting volumes will belong with every layer, so that the overlapping meshes become interwoven. Turning this setting off will cause one of the meshes to obtain all of the volume in the overlap, while it is removed from the other meshes. |
remove_empty_first_layers | 1 | - | - | - | - | Remove Empty First Layers | Remove empty layers beneath the first printed layer if they are present. Disabling this setting can cause empty first layers if the Slicing Tolerance setting is set to Exclusive or Middle. |
meshfix_maximum_resolution | 0.5 | - | - | - | - | Maximum Resolution | The minimum size of a line segment after slicing. If you increase this, the mesh will have a lower resolution. This may allow the printer to keep up with the speed it has to process g-code and will increase slice speed by removing details of the mesh that it can't process anyway. |
meshfix_maximum_travel_resolution | 1 | - | - | - | - | Maximum Travel Resolution | The minimum size of a travel line segment after slicing. If you increase this, the travel moves will have less smooth corners. This may allow the printer to keep up with the speed it has to process g-code, but it may cause model avoidance to become less accurate. |
meshfix_maximum_deviation | 0.025 | - | - | - | - | Maximum Deviation | The maximum deviation allowed when reducing the resolution for the Maximum Resolution setting. If you increase this, the print will be less accurate, but the g-code will be smaller. Maximum Deviation is a limit for Maximum Resolution, so if the two conflict the Maximum Deviation will always be held true. |
meshfix_maximum_extrusion_area_deviation | 50000 | - | - | - | - | Maximum Extrusion Area Deviation | The maximum extrusion area deviation allowed when removing intermediate points from a straight line. An intermediate point may serve as width-changing point in a long straight line. Therefore, if it is removed, it will cause the line to have a uniform width and, as a result, lose (or gain) a bit of extrusion area. If you increase this you may notice slight under- (or over-) extrusion in between straight parallel walls, as more intermediate width-changing points will be allowed to be removed. Your print will be less accurate, but the g-code will be smaller. |
print_sequence | all_at_once | - | - | - | - | Print Sequence | Whether to print all models one layer at a time or to wait for one model to finish, before moving on to the next. One at a time mode is possible if a) only one extruder is enabled and b) all models are separated in such a way that the whole print head can move in between and all models are lower than the distance between the nozzle and the X/Y axes. |
infill_mesh | | - | - | - | - | Infill Mesh | Use this mesh to modify the infill of other meshes with which it overlaps. Replaces infill regions of other meshes with regions for this mesh. It's suggested to only print one Wall and no Top/Bottom Skin for this mesh. |
infill_mesh_order | 0 | - | - | - | - | Mesh Processing Rank | Determines the priority of this mesh when considering multiple overlapping infill meshes. Areas where multiple infill meshes overlap will take on the settings of the mesh with the highest rank. An infill mesh with a higher rank will modify the infill of infill meshes with lower rank and normal meshes. |

anti_overhang_mesh | | - | - | - | - | Anti Overhang Mesh | Use this mesh to specify where no part of the model should be detected as overhang. This can be used to remove unwanted support structure. |
magic_mesh_surface_mode | normal | - | - | - | - | Surface Mode | Treat the model as a surface only, a volume, or volumes with loose surfaces. The normal print mode only prints enclosed volumes. "Surface" prints a single wall tracing the mesh surface with no infill and no top/bottom skin. "Both" prints enclosed volumes like normal and any remaining polygons as surfaces. |
magic_spiralize | | - | - | - | - | Spiralize Outer Contour | Spiralize smooths out the Z move of the outer edge. This will create a steady Z increase over the whole print. This feature turns a solid model into a single walled print with a solid bottom. This feature should only be enabled when each layer only contains a single part. |
smooth_spiralized_contours | 1 | - | - | - | - | Smooth Spiralized Contours | Smooth the spiralized contours to reduce the visibility of the Z seam (the Z seam should be barely visible on the print but will still be visible in the layer view). Note that smoothing will tend to blur fine surface details. |
relative_extrusion | | - | - | - | - | Relative Extrusion | Use relative extrusion rather than absolute extrusion. Using relative E-steps makes for easier post-processing of the g-code. However, it's not supported by all printers and it may produce very slight deviations in the amount of deposited material compared to absolute E-steps. Irrespective of this setting, the extrusion mode will always be set to absolute before any g-code script is output. |
slicing_tolerance | middle | - | - | - | - | Slicing Tolerance | Vertical tolerance in the sliced layers. The contours of a layer are normally generated by taking cross sections through the middle of each layer's thickness (Middle). Alternatively each layer can have the areas which fall inside of the volume throughout the entire thickness of the layer (Exclusive) or a layer has the areas which fall inside anywhere within the layer (Inclusive). Inclusive retains the most details, Exclusive makes for the best fit and Middle stays closest to the original surface. |
infill_enable_travel_optimization | | - | - | - | - | Infill Travel Optimization | When enabled, the order in which the infill lines are printed is optimized to reduce the distance travelled. The reduction in travel time achieved very much depends on the model being sliced, infill pattern, density, etc. Note that, for some models that have many small areas of infill, the time to slice the model may be greatly increased. |

conical_overhang_enabled | | - | - | - | - | Make Overhang Printable | Change the geometry of the printed model such that minimal support is required. Steep overhangs will become shallow overhangs. Overhanging areas will drop down to become more vertical. |
conical_overhang_angle | 50 | - | - | - | - | Maximum Model Angle | The maximum angle of overhangs after the they have been made printable. At a value of 0° all overhangs are replaced by a piece of model connected to the build plate, 90° will not change the model in any way. |

coasting_min_volume | 0.8 | - | - | - | - | Minimum Volume Before Coasting | The smallest volume an extrusion path should have before allowing coasting. For smaller extrusion paths, less pressure has been built up in the bowden tube and so the coasted volume is scaled linearly. This value should always be larger than the Coasting Volume. |
coasting_speed | 90 | - | - | - | - | Coasting Speed | The speed by which to move during coasting, relative to the speed of the extrusion path. A value slightly under 100% is advised, since during the coasting move the pressure in the bowden tube drops. |

magic_fuzzy_skin_thickness | 0.3 | - | - | - | - | Fuzzy Skin Thickness | The width within which to jitter. It's advised to keep this below the outer wall width, since the inner walls are unaltered. |
magic_fuzzy_skin_point_density | 1.25 | - | - | - | - | Fuzzy Skin Density | The average density of points introduced on each polygon in a layer. Note that the original points of the polygon are discarded, so a low density results in a reduction of the resolution. |

wireframe_strategy | compensate | - | - | - | - | WP Strategy | Strategy for making sure two consecutive layers connect at each connection point. Retraction lets the upward lines harden in the right position, but may cause filament grinding. A knot can be made at the end of an upward line to heighten the chance of connecting to it and to let the line cool; however, it may require slow printing speeds. Another strategy is to compensate for the sagging of the top of an upward line; however, the lines won't always fall down as predicted. |

max_extrusion_before_wipe | 10 | - | - | - | - | Material Volume Between Wipes | Maximum material that can be extruded before another nozzle wipe is initiated. If this value is less than the volume of material required in a layer, the setting has no effect in this layer, i.e. it is limited to one wipe per layer. |
wipe_retraction_enable | 1 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Retraction Enable | Retract the filament when the nozzle is moving over a non-printed area. |
wipe_retraction_amount | 1 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Retraction Distance | Amount to retract the filament so it does not ooze during the wipe sequence. |
wipe_retraction_extra_prime_amount | 0 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Retraction Extra Prime Amount | Some material can ooze away during a wipe travel moves, which can be compensated for here. |
wipe_retraction_speed | 5 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Retraction Speed | The speed at which the filament is retracted and primed during a wipe retraction move. |
wipe_pause | 0 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Pause | Pause after the unretract. |
wipe_hop_enable | 1 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Z Hop | When wiping, the build plate is lowered to create clearance between the nozzle and the print. It prevents the nozzle from hitting the print during travel moves, reducing the chance to knock the print from the build plate. |
wipe_hop_amount | 1 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Z Hop Height | The height difference when performing a Z Hop. |
wipe_hop_speed | 10 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Hop Speed | Speed to move the z-axis during the hop. |
wipe_brush_pos_x | 100 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Brush X Position | X location where wipe script will start. |
wipe_repeat_count | 5 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Repeat Count | Number of times to move the nozzle across the brush. |
wipe_move_distance | 20 | - | - | - | - | Wipe Move Distance | The distance to move the head back and forth across the brush. |
small_hole_max_size | 0 | - | - | - | - | Small Hole Max Size | Holes and part outlines with a diameter smaller than this will be printed using Small Feature Speed. |
small_feature_speed_factor | 50 | - | - | - | - | Small Feature Speed | Small features will be printed at this percentage of their normal print speed. Slower printing can help with adhesion and accuracy. |
small_feature_speed_factor_0 | 50 | - | - | - | - | Small Feature Initial Layer Speed | Small features on the first layer will be printed at this percentage of their normal print speed. Slower printing can help with adhesion and accuracy. |
material_alternate_walls | | - | - | - | - | Alternate Wall Directions | Alternate wall directions every other layer and inset. Useful for materials that can build up stress, like for metal printing. |
raft_remove_inside_corners | | - | - | - | - | Remove Raft Inside Corners | Remove inside corners from the raft, causing the raft to become convex. |
raft_base_wall_count | 1 | - | - | - | - | Raft Base Wall Count | The number of contours to print around the linear pattern in the base layer of the raft. |
center_object | | - | - | - | - | Center Object | Whether to center the object on the middle of the build platform (0,0), instead of using the coordinate system in which the object was saved. |
mesh_position_x | 0 | - | - | - | - | Mesh Position X | Offset applied to the object in the x direction. |
mesh_position_y | 0 | - | - | - | - | Mesh Position Y | Offset applied to the object in the y direction. |
mesh_position_z | 0 | - | - | - | - | Mesh Position Z | Offset applied to the object in the z direction. With this you can perform what was used to be called 'Object Sink'. |
mesh_rotation_matrix | [[1,0,0], [0,1,0], [0,0,1]] | - | - | - | - | Mesh Rotation Matrix | Transformation matrix to be applied to the model when loading it from file. |
