PrusaConnect Not Selecting Correct Material Type
I couldn't seem to find this issue in the forum. I just noticed if I upload and the Prusa XL is using a different tool then tool 1. It will register the incorrect material type. I've been printing ASA today and it's showing as PLA. The print is using Tool 3. The job will properly put the material type into the filename.
PrusaLink type (Raspberry Pi Zero / Pi 3 / Pi 4): Prusa XL
PrusaLink version: unknown print is going can't look. I sent this file directly to PrusaConnect
Printer type: Original Prusa XL 5 Tool
Printer UUID (you can find it in Printer detail page - address line): c37fa7a7-fc98-4cc3-bfcf-852fd0c0cbfa
Printer firmware version: 5.1.2+13478
PrusaSlicer version (if applicable)Description of the bug, including steps to reproduce (if possible): PrusaSlicer 2.7.2 macos arm64
Included is the print history showing a few files that are ASA print but the material type is PLA.
RE: PrusaConnect Not Selecting Correct Material Type
Can you verify that if you upload the file into connect, without uploading it into the printer, it will also show the wrong filament type? I can try to do the same. This will tell us, whether it's the printer telling us the wrong filament type, or if the issue is present even on connect metadata parsing. Also interested, what bgcode files show as these are analyzed differently. Thanks
RE:
I was uploading directly to queue in PrusaConnect then it would copy to the printer from there. It seems to happen even if you send directly to the printer with PrusaLink as well.
I did more testing. If I use any tool head from 2-5. Whatever Tool 1 is set to in PrusaSlicer is what material type it will use for the print job and statistics. It's not grabbing the material type from the actual job information. Which does show the correct material type being used.
EX: If I setup a print job using Tool 5 and it's ABS. If Tool 1 is set to PLA it will show the job as PLA in the history and statistics. If I change Tool 1 to an ABS filament to match what I'm using in Tool 5. It will set the job history as ABS and the statistics is correct.
Thanks
