MK4-MMU3 upgrade to MK4S

Do the MK4S upgrade is compatible MMU3 ?  because the kit webpage said is not, but the full build MK4S has the MMU3 option.

Where is the assembly manual for MK4 to MK4S ?

Can I still use a 'normal speed' 0.25mm nozzle with the MK4S ?

MMU:According to the blog post, yes. In fact you can buy an assembled mk4s with an assembled mmu3 already on it

Assembly manual: Not yet published, it should be on the assembly manual page when it is

Nozzle, no idea

RE: MK4-MMU3 upgrade to MK4S

Talked to Support with a few questions:

1.) Nozzles - "Yes you can use the standard nozzle on the MK4S as well. The high flow obXidians nozzle is already available via this link: https://www.prusa3d.com/product/e3d-prusa-nozzle-high-flow-obxidian-0-4-mm/ "

Sounds like you can use the high flow nozzles on the standard MK4, as well. Already ordered ObXidians.

2.) Wifi - "The Wife (Wifi) Board is new (improved)". Whether that means less prone to slowdowns or other issues the existing MK4 has, I don't know. Would be nice.

3.) MMU3 - "The MMU parts on the nextruder will not change with the MK4S upgrade."

4.) I also inquired about the GPIO board... since some of the 'features' they've discussed with it makes it sound like it might be integrated into the 'smart' controls they've previously mentioned with the enclosure.  I was told the support agent didn't have any inside information that was shared with him.

In for 2 upgrade kits, 4 ObXidian Nozzles, 2 GPIO boards, and 2 Accelerometers here...

In for a penny.. in for a pound.. as the saying goes.
