Printer Settings (SynthBlocks)
The Printer Settings category in SynthBlocks is a set of read-only expression blocks that expose values from your active printer and build-volume configuration. Drag them into any numeric input slot to use printer-aware dimensions in your program.
Available blocks
| Block | Returns |
|---|---|
| Bedsize X | Build volume X dimension (mm) |
| Bedsize Y | Build volume Y dimension (mm) |
| Bedsize Z | Build volume Z dimension (mm) |
| Layer height | Layer height from print settings (mm) |
| Layer width | Extrusion line width (mm) |
| Nozzle width | Nozzle diameter (mm) |
How they work
These blocks have no inputs — they output a single number read from the current printer configuration. When you change your printer preset, nozzle, or layer height in the app settings, these blocks automatically reflect the new values so your program re-renders with correct dimensions.
