Hello all,

I have a Replicator 2X... unfortunately we had a meltdown and those extruder assemblies are so expensive. We only really ever use a single print material so we were able to make a single functional extruder and get the wiring all sorted. It even works well. The one issue is now when I try to use the Makerbot Desktop software, I no longer have the option to enable the heated bed when printing PLA.

If I go Devices > Select Type of Device > Replicator 2X ... Then click "SETTINGS", i see the option in the Temperature tab to use the Heated bed. If I select my "Replicator 2X (USB)" that appears in my Devices dropdown, I don't have that open when I click "SETTINGS". I'm not sure what is going on.

I've factory defaulted the printer and worked through everything but not sure what's going on... I thought maybe I could add some startup GCODE? I'd rather just get it to work as it should (or used to). I know the bed works as we can preheat it just fine.

Any ideas appreciated.
