[feature request] Mirror / Duplication Mode for IDEX - Dual-X

[BAUBLITZ]

klippy.log
I miss an Mirror and Duplication Mode in Klipper for my Tenlog TL-D3S.
The mirror and duplication mode halves the size of the print bed in both modes on x-axis.
in mirror mode, the second printhead performs the movements of the first printhead in reverse, in duplex mode the second printhead performs the same movements as the first printhead.
This naturally halves the printing time of 2 identical objects.
I have the problem in original firmware with print over usb. With marlin 2.0 the modes work fine but the board base on an 8 bit arduino 2560 with 7 steppers and is to slow for the calculations of movements. even when printing with only one printhead.
With klipper, the printer runs much smoother and faster, and the print quality with klipper is much better, so I would like to stay with klipper.

Hi @BAUBLITZ,

It did not look like there was a Klipper log file attached to this ticket. The log file has been engineered to answer common questions the Klipper developers have about the software and its environment (software version, hardware type, configuration, event timing, and hundreds of other questions).

Unfortunately, too many people have opened tickets without providing the log. That consumes developer time; time that would be better spent enhancing the software. If this ticket references an event that has occurred while running the software then the Klipper log must be attached to this ticket. Otherwise, this ticket will be automatically closed in a few days.

For information on obtaining the Klipper log file see: https://github.com/KevinOConnor/klipper/blob/master/docs/Contact.md

The log can still be attached to this ticket - just add a comment and attach the log to that comment.

Best regards,

This looks like a dup of #1131.

Yes , but you have set the #1131 to inactive and i have not found any information for the feature in klipper. Is there any chance to implement this feature in klipper ? The printquality with Klipper is better than all other Firmwares i have tested.
This Feature are save me some time when i print the same parts with two extruder in the half time .

[KevinOConnor]

Thanks. Alas, it would require a developer willing to implement and submit it. It's not something I, personally, will have time to work on in the near future.

sad, Idex is a very interesting thing.
And klipper is one of the alternative come to mind, when you search alternatives to RepRapFirmware on duet.

@BAUBLITZ can you share your printer config for Tenlog TL-D3 Pro? I am in the process of configuring mine and cannot get things going. I'm struggling with the pins. I configured based on the Marlin files but the only things that are working are temperature sensors. Thanks.

[BAUBLITZ]

You can download my config from here https://github.com/tenlog/TL-D3/files/5033759/printer.zip it for an Tenlog-D3S.
