Geeetech

Hi. I have recently bought a A30T, it went together real easy, initial prints are ok, I used Slicer for my old Geeetech ProB and I'm having trouble getting used to Curaengine. I cannot seem to get it to print from the 2nd and 3rd extruder in one colour. Also Colormixer is a different version to the video and having trouble with that too>

I too have been having problems having Cura print from only extruder 2 or 3. I got it to do so by only using G28 in the start code. Using my normal proven working very well start code, would cause the printer to heat up like normal and then suddenly turn off the hot end (or do something that reduced the nozzle temp) which can be seen via Octoprint nozzle temp dropping. The problem with that is, even if I add G29, it doesn't do the ABL process, it just ignores it but it does allow it to print from extruders other than #1.

Now the weird thing is, the EasyPrint Lite software doesn't seem to work in my Virtual Machine, but I can see the start and end gcode Geeetech has provided. But their Gcode involves a whole lot of back and forth switching, and I just simply want, to print 1 color from extruder #2 and 3
