Marlin 1.1.9 is the final 8-bit flat version of this firmware, and the last 1.1.x release. A monumental amount of talent and effort has gone into its production. Throughout Marlin 1.1 development we worked closely with the community, contributors, vendors, host developers, library developers, etc. to improve the quality, configurability, and compatibility of Marlin Firmware, while supporting a wide variety of Arduino-based boards.

For this development cycle we aimed to address bugs and overhaul the motion planner. The end result is a much smarter and more robust motion system, and this should be noticeable as improved print results and reduced print job times.

Change Log

New Features

  • Specify stepper drivers per-axis. Marlin determines pulse timing.
  • Updated to Linear Advance 1.5 (with new K value range)
  • Added POWER_LOSS_RECOVERY for SD printing (based on work by Creality3D)
  • Added POWER_LOSS_PIN to detect power loss early and save state
  • Added Z_CLEARANCE_MULTI_PROBE to set probe "bump" distance
  • Added DELTA_FEEDRATE_SCALING to dynamically scale the feedrate for correct delta motion
  • Added a Lightweight Status Screen LIGHTWEIGHT_UI for ST7920 (most graphical displays!)
  • Added homing / leveling / probing options
  • Added M701 / M702 filament load / unload
  • Added SLIM_LCD_MENUS for reduced build size
  • Added AUTO_POWER_CONTROL to turn power on/off as needed
  • Added M421 N parameter to set a mesh point to NAN
  • Added support for Malyan LCD

Fixed and Optimized

  • PlatformIO Auto Build for Atom and VSCode. Builds based on MOTHERBOARD setting.
  • Improved stepper timing, smoothness, etc. Try these new features:
    • ADAPTIVE_STEP_SMOOTHING : Smoother multi-axis motion at lower speeds
    • JUNCTION_DEVIATION : An alternative to classic jerk limiting
    • S_CURVE_ACCELERATION : S-shaped acceleration curves to reduce ringing
    • DELTA_FEEDRATE_SCALING : Correct the feedrate so it applies to Cartesian mm/s
  • Improved performance, stability, reliability, and error handling
  • Improved LCD display, status message, and controller response
  • Improved multi-extruder filament change
  • Added Creality and other example configurations
  • Many improvements for Trinamic stepper drivers, sensorless homing

Miscellaneous Changes

  • Update Advanced Pause / Filament Change settings
  • Report an error on unsupported commands
  • Set laser/spindle power to minimum on disable

Choose a tag to compare

We've had one of the most active periods ever, with over 125 pull requests and 450 commits, representing dozens of evolutionary improvements. The 1.1.7 release contains bug-fixes, enhancements, refinements, new features, and other changes aimed at improving stability and addressing outstanding issues.

Known Issues

  • Please report any issues with tool change, special extruders, dual X axis, and SCARA.

Major Changes

  • #8229, #8381 : Operate in Native Machine Space
    Marlin now operates internally in native workspace, which simplifies and optimizes the movement code.
  • #8458 : No retroactive adjustment with M851 Z
    Version 1.1.6 incorrectly modifies the BILINEAR mesh in response to M851 Z. This has been fixed!
  • #8596, #8636 : Add SEGMENT_LEVELED_MOVES for MBL, Bilinear, UBL
    With this option Cartesian moves are broken into small segments when a mesh-based bed leveling system is enabled.
  • #8658 : Split first move to planner for better chaining
    This change fixes the dreaded "first move stutter" that Marlin inherited from Grbl long ago.
  • #8690 : Purge remaining blocks on endstop/probe hit
    This change prevents any extra moves left in the planner from running after a quick-stop.
  • #8697 : Alter jerk code to address COREXY stuttering
    There are many ways to handle "jerk" (and we've tried a few). The latest iteration fixes a Core stuttering issue while reducing the jerk code to its essence.
