Original-Prusa-i3 VS PrusaSlicer

I've been effective with OpenSCAD and FreeCAD.

OpenSCAD is good for enclosures: https://github.com/sbambach/MarksEnclosureHelper

and mechanical systems: https://github.com/prusa3d/Original-Prusa-i3

Don't think of it as a programming language; that will hurt you. Think of it as a specification language. That helped me.

Being the printer already assembled and working, I am looking at pg. 12 of the printer manual downloadable from prusa3d.com, chapter 6.3.1 Calibration flow and wizard, showing two different scenario... one for kit and one for assembled printers. Am I correct assuming I can just go through the latter? Also it's not very clear to me if that's the process I have to go through each time I turn the machine on, before attempting any print.

TLDR: replace the adapter-printer if it's worn.

They’re usually bought at https://prusa3d.com

On top of that, people simply don't know what they're doing. For example, the Prusa MK3S+ STL files are licensed under GPLv2, which does not make sense because there is no source (the source files are GPLv3 for some reason). But if you look at the remixes, the majority are licensed under some Creative Commons license end even the Public Domain. All those remixes are mis-licensed because only the GPL is compatible with the GPL.

you are right, but many people have asked for this.... reddit, github.. even on prusa3d.com but they dont care...

The BOM (of sorts) of the MK3S exists here.

No corresponding source for the parts is available? I don't seen an MK4 branch in there, unless they ditched openscad entirely (even then at least STEP files should be provided if it's still Open Hardware).

From prusa3d.com:

I do this with my Prusa MK3S with MMU2S. It cannot be done without this fix in PrusaSlicer, however (which hasn't been merged into a release).

If you’d like to support my request https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/11102 and leave a comment or a 👍. Any support is welcome and helps to get this feature implemented in PrusaSlicer. Thank you in advance!

That's it. I haven't seen many mentions of global variables other than This GitHub page from March so I hope this helps people.

Example: "The feature was ported from BambuStudio, thanks to @bambulab for the initial implementation." https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/releases/tag/version_2.6.0-beta4

It may be worth filing a feature request issue for your use case with the PrusaSlicer project.

There is an issue with PrusaSlicer that needs to be fixed to make it work for true multi-material printing. At this time, the nozzle can jam when switching from a high temperature to a lower temperature filament, because the purge is attempted at the lower temperature, which can cause the nozzle to jam. I fixed it in this PR (so that purging happens at the higher of the two temperatures) but it never got merged into the current release, and given the PR backlog, I doubt it ever will. In any case, that fix converts the MMU into a true multi-material printer. I can now print PLA with PETG supports, for example. Or mix PLA with PLA+. I have to use my own PrusaSlicer build to do this, however.

Hi, I have a project based on https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/tree/master that I want to create a .app for to try on another laptop. however i just can't figure out how. it seems like xcode build will do that for you, however upon using cmake with -GXcode it does create a project and I can debug/run my app with it. but there is no .app within the file structure.
