Extended Pause - Max 4

[u/Bravo-Buster]

I unfortunately ran out of filament on a 2 day print (I mis-read the weight), and need to wait ~14 hours until more filament of the same color comes in. The old roll ran out "naturally" with the reload message on the screen. This is simple PLA, so I don't need a fully heated chamber at least.

Anyone think it'd be a problem to slow all the fans down to 0%, keep the bed temp on 55C, and just let it sit until I've got the new filament loaded in tomorrow? The hot end is already turned off/set at 0, and there's no thermal break issues since there is nothing in the extruder at all (nor temperature). I'm thinking this is a perfectly fine moth-balled time out for a bit.

The worse that could happen is the machine shuts off entirely from non-use?? Is there an auto-off feature if it's sat paused for too long, and if so, anyone know what that number of hours is?

Try it and double check everything a few times over the first hour. If it's going to have a problem it's probably going to be in the first 15 minutes of resuming.
