IDEX with cartesian printer

[LifeOfBrian]

For the folks here reading this, the IDEX printer is now running with the Klipper branch from @dmbutyugin:

Support of COPY and MIRROR modes for IDEX

Hi, I’ve put together a branch with more extended IDEX support, namely COPY and MIRROR modes are supported for the dual carriage. It is not based on the previously created code by @Tircown, although offers very similar functionality. If you have IDEX printer and are interested in this topic (e.g. have been using his branch previously), please give it a try and report any problems you may encounter. I have some (albeit, not very high) hopes that it can be merged into the mainline. Note that I do…

Currently I’m writing a Cura plugin to set the IDEX mode already in the slicer so one can process that in the START_PRINT macro.
This is already working like a charm:

Now as a nice to have feature I’m trying to change the build plate width to 50% when mirror or copy is selected so that one will see how big the parts can be.
Then I’ll publish it.
