Can we ask the printer to make a beep sound once printing is done?

Hi, I need to keep checking the print process as it is in another room. Is it possible to make the printer to produce a beep sound or a short melody once it has done printing?

The answer is yes.  You will need to add statements to the g-code.  I have never done this so do not which statements are needed.

There's an old thread on this. I personally hate loud beeps, but insert little chirps at various times during the print by adding this line to start and end gcode under Printer Settings->Custom g-code:

M300 S40 P10 ; chirp

I'm using this simply sequence at the gcode end section:

M300 S1000 P500 ;First beep
M300 S0 P500 ;Wait
M300 S1000 P1000 ;Second beep
M300 S0 P500 ;Wait
M300 S1000 P1500 ;Third beep

Hi,

Can this be configured to be included in all gcode files created by PrusaSlicer?

Thanks,

Josef

if you add the gcode to the Custom Gcode, End Gcode and save the profile, you  can re use it as often as you like.
