I recently had the computer I run my slicer on computer die in an unreocoverable way and I lost all my OrcaSlicer filament settings/tunings. OLuck would have it the only thing I did not have backed up.

I am hoping I can retrieve most or at least some of these Such as PA and EM and temp settings by reviewing the Gcod from previous prints saved in my Klipper history.

What’s the simplest way to extract G-code from previous prints stored in history?

What frontend are you referring to?

With OctoPrint you can just download all stored files.

Same with Mainsail and I think Fluidd.  
Just connect via on to your SBC and click onto the left hand side **G-CODE FILES** tab (for Mainsail).  
There you’ll find all the previous gcode files you uploaded/printed.

Many thanks so simple. I missed that option, I was clicking on 'History" instead of Gcode and trying to download them from the history tab, duh.

Once again thanks.
