How 3DPrintSaver.com works

How you finish a failed print

Start with the original G-code and the part that already printed. 3DPrintSaver.com helps you build a recovery file and line the nozzle back up.

The five-step workflow

  1. Choose the original G-code.
    Use a file from your device or Moonraker.
  2. Measure the part that already printed.
    This tells 3DPrintSaver.com where the print stopped.
  3. Rebuild the file.
    3DPrintSaver.com finds where to restart and makes a recovery file.
  4. Home and line up the nozzle.
    Use the guided controls to match the old print.
  5. Check the preview and resume.
    Review the file before starting again.

3DPrintSaver.com uses the measured height to choose the resume point. It then builds the rest of the G-code and gives you alignment controls before you start again.

Two recovery paths

Stuck to bed

Use the old print as your reference. Measure it, paper-test the nozzle, and lock the position.

Moved or loose from bed

Make a landing pad first. Put the print back on the guides, secure it, and line up the nozzle.

Why a restart layer is only one step

A restart layer tells the printer where to begin. It does not line the nozzle back up.

3DPrintSaver.com helps with the missing steps: rebuild the file, home safely, line up X/Y/Z, and check the preview.
