Craftbot 3 Support G-Code

The Craftbot 3 supports gcode, but as it uses a closed source firmware which means what codes it supports can't be looked up in the usual reprap place (Gcode) or in the documentation of a 3D printer firmware such as marlin or reprap_firmware. Craftunique has a list of supported codes on their support page, but these are generic and not machine specific and it doesn't offer a great deal of documentation. The CB machine supports quite a few commands in the M1xxx range that aren't standard and are very specific to the Craftbot printers. Luckily it is possible to query the printer for its supported gcode using M1000 which returns a list of supported gcode. This Blog tries to list the supported codes and give a brief description of its use. A very good place to find such a list can also be found on https://www.craftbot.nl which offers very useful information about the Craftbot printers in general. But it is not CB3 specific and list codes not supported by this machine.

I will update this list as i get more information on the individual codes. for now its as is reported by M1000.
