prusa shields on non prusa printer
Im attempting to print the stacked prusa shields from Prusa. If I download the .3mf file it slices with a print time of 2 hrs and 40 minutes for 2 sets of 2 stacked shields. The problem is that it puts them in the bottom left corner of my Anycubic Chiron printer. It is right at the edge of the bed.
If I attempt to move the models to the center of the bed my print time changes to 2 days 5 hours. This is at .2 resolution, .4 nozzle.
I am using Cura 4.5.
Can I only use the 3mf file with prusaslicer and a prusa printer?

3mf files can also be processed with Cura. I would try it with a simple STL file.

@karl-herbert
I can open the stl version. What I would like to find out is the massive print time difference. between the 3mf and stl versions. What are the settings that are in the 3mf file that makes that big a difference.
RE: prusa shields on non prusa printer
open the 3mf file, slice the file, Save the file to your computer and then open it with Notepad++ (A freeware program) ALL of the settings are added as comments like this :-

you should then be able to set your other files up to the same settings...
however if you have a non prusa printer, you may find some settings are inappropriate,
