Which of the following is the correct syntax to select the active extruder in a G-code command for dual extruder printers?
AG28
BT0
CM104
DM106
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand G-code commands for extruder selection

    The command 'T0' selects the first extruder, 'T1' selects the second extruder.
  2. Step 2: Differentiate from other G-code commands

    M104 sets temperature, G28 homes axes, M106 controls fan speed, so they don't select extruders.
  3. Final Answer:

    T0 -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Extruder select command = T0 [OK]
Quick Trick: Use T0 or T1 to switch extruders in G-code [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing temperature commands with extruder selection
  • Using G28 or M106 to select extruders
  • Mixing up T0 and M104 commands
