# MarlinKimbra 3D Printer Firmware for Arduino
## Version 4.2.85 Laser dev

This is the Laser enhananced version with the patches from Franco (nextime) Lanza.

If you like to help the work on Laser version, please donate to

[DONATIONS id:1269]


For K40 laser cutter there are branches with the default config files ready to use:

 * [with cooler and flow sensor](https://git.nexlab.net/machinery/MarlinKimbra/tree/k40_flow_cooler)
 * [without cooler and flow sensor](https://git.nexlab.net/machinery/MarlinKimbra/tree/k40_noflow_nocooler)

Also, take care that lasers needs a larger serial buffer on arduino mega 2560 than the default 64 byte buffer, so
take a look at needed modification on the arduino ide from [Laser Documentation README](Documentation/Laser/README.md)

 - Management Multyextruder NPr2, 4/6 extruders with only two engines.
 - Management Dual Extruder DONDOLO.
 - Adding commands to facilitate purging of hotend. 
 - Step per unit varied for each extruder as well as the feedrate and the acceleration.
 - Adding Debug Dryrun used by repetier.
 - Added total Power on time written in SD CARD.
 - Added total Power consumption written in SD CARD.
 - Added total filament printed written in SD CARD.
 - Added anti extruder idle oozing system.
 - Added Hysteresis and Z-Wobble correction (only cartesian printers).
 - Added support reader TAG width MFRC522
