Prepare the print as if you have multiple extruders, but replace the tool-change gcode with gcode to move aware from the print and pause. This can accomplish a color change within a layer. This would be extremely tedious and impractical for a full-color print like a Rubik's Cube due to the number of swaps. I've found very little about this online, but with a little experimenting I was able to accomplish it with a design that limited the changes to just a few layers. | |
