Reproduction steps
I had incomprehensible crashes when slicing my workpieces. After a long search, I found the cause in my self-written printer file.
As there is unfortunately no good documentation for this, I had taken many entries from other printer files and thus copied a faulty entry.
Many errors of this kind are in the file (and others) "ultimaker2.def.json":
Lines like this are wrong :
Probably also wrong:
Das Problem sind "" bei den Werten !
Richtig müsste es wie folgt heißen:
Presumably too:
"machine_name": { "default_value": Ultimaker 2 },
Since I removed this "", my Cura has been running correctly again!
However, I was shocked at how often this error can be found in the printer files and other files.
I have a few requests, which unfortunately I can't answer myself yet, as I haven't been working with Cura for very long:
Finally a proper documentation, also with explanations on how to create a printer file CORRECTLY. I notice that a lot seems to have been put together here and that many users just copy the files together.
A possibility or simply a short guide to really remove ALL superfluous printer and filament files and much more.
Many files unfortunately also contain many errors.
Thank you and I hope I was able to contribute to troubleshooting.
