Sending an M601 command does not properly pause the printer. The status line updates to “Print paused”, but the printer is observed continuing XYZ motion with a cold extruder.
Use case: I want to encapsulate magnets in a print without changing the filament.
Hello. We have already seen this issue for Prusa Mini. It is a firmware bug. It doesn’t support it on printing via USB and printer just ignores it.
What printer type do you have? I can see from the screenshot that it is Prusa MK3S, isn’t it?
The possible solution is to enable emulated pause in the 3DPrinterOS Client:
To change it you will need to go to 3DPrinterOS Client web interface (RPI IP in browser, or for PC versions of Client it is 127.0.0.1:8008 in browser)
Then you need to go → Settings (on top of the left menu) → Edit settings file → Look for “intercept_pause” parameter and change it to true
After that click Save and then restart the Client to apply new settings (!!!when you will have no printing jobs on this Client!!!)
