easy📝 Factual Q12 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Identify the command for setting extruder temperature
M104 is the G-code command used to set the extruder temperature to a specified value.Step 2: Check the syntax
The correct syntax is M104 followed by S and the temperature value, so M104 S200 sets the extruder to 200°C.Final Answer:
M104 S200 -> Option DQuick Check:
M104 sets extruder temp = M104 S200 [OK]
Quick Trick: M104 sets extruder temp; M106 controls fan [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Using M106 which controls the fan instead of temperature
- Using G1 or G28 which are for movement, not temperature
- Omitting the S parameter for temperature value
