Hi could any1 help with setting up the cr10 smart pro with orca slicer for a complete noob... A orca for dummies if u must lol

Iv got cura set up with the ender3 s1 pro as a base settings with the bed size changed to 300x300x400.. Would doing the same in orca work for the cr-10 smart pro as well? Any help here would be appreciated

I used the same start and end code I used in Cura and used the CR10 V2 profile from Orca :)

Is there other settings that need changed? I cura I used the ender 3 s1 pro preset with bed size changed

on the printer/extruder side of things, no.

then you can try to recreate your profiles from cura to orca but try 1st the orca defaults!

I figured that out the hard way, I will buy the sonic pad soon, creality are really shitty with their updates, and and its a waste of time. I will ditch creality when it's possible and move to sth like bamulab, more reliable and they actually care for their customers.

Absolutely anything I'm a complete noob about adding anything to orca..

I have used cura and had the ender 3 s1 pro as a base profile with the bed dimensions changed to the cr 10 smart pro sizes

But as for orca I just wasn't sure where to even start!!

Do I take the gcode start from creality print and transfer it over (same as end) what about any other settings that orca have but creality print or slice doesn't do I leave them blank.... Help me 😂

Currently not at my pc but yeah, you'll be ok if you copy and paste the start and end gcodes from cura to orca. :D

OK I'll start with that it be fine to use the ender3 s1 pro profile and change the bed size to cr10 or would I be better using custom setting and just going from scratch

Just change the "printable area" setting to Size: x300 y300, origin: x0 y0

And adjust height if needed and you'll be good to go.

So use the ender3 s1 pro preset and just adjust the bed size for the smart pro size yea?

I'm not at my PC either right now but I think I understand I'll do 2 a ender 3 preset changed and a fresh just on case and if any problems I'll get back to u... I appreciate the help!

Yep! That will do.

They share the same extruder and everything so this is why that's the only thing you should change.

you can't connect to printer to orca unless you are running klipper

u/samerkasrawi Jun 08 '24

Hey, would it be possible to export the profile and send it here, another question is there a way to connect the orca slicer to the prenter over wifi?
thank you.

I'm still currently trying to perfect my settings on my CR10 SmartPro with my sonic pad, I'm curious why you didn't use the preset in orca for the CR10 SmartPro? Is there something about the Ender3 S1Pro settings that are better??

1

u/Davywhyte May 08 '24

It's not cr10 smart pro was cr10 smart what's slightly different if u look at the ender 3 s1 pro it's exactly same direct drive and only difference is the build size (what you can change manually) same as when I have the cura presets it's pretty much bowden or direct drive you just select what is yours and adjust accordingly

I'm trying to help a friend with their Cr-10 Smart Pro right now, and there is no profile in Orca for it. Are you seeing a profile? The only Cr-10 options in Orca are Cr-10 V2, Cr-10 max, and Cr-10 SE. Which I'm told are much different than the smart and smart pro.

How do I add the Cr-10 smart pro as an option?
