9.4.2 Extruder mapping

Extruder mapping allows you to swap the extruders specified in your BFB files (generated in

Axon) onto physical extruders on the machine. E.g. you can map the extruder specified in

the BFB file as extruder 1 onto physical extruder 2.

Swapping extruders is useful if you want to avoid loading and unloading materials to match

the material in the physical extruders to those specified in the BFB file.
