MK4 UI issue: "Print Complete" screen must be manually cleared before another print can start
I built an MK4 from a kit about a week ago and have printed about 20 models with it. So far, I am extremely pleased with the quality of the hardware and the resulting prints. However, the firmware and web interface definitely need some help. I have noticed about six serious bugs so far, and I am creating one thread for each of them to start a discussion.
Issue: "Print Complete" screen must be manually cleared before another print can start
Upon completion of a print, the MK4 routinely displays a "Print Complete" screen. While this screen is being shown on the display, the printer is unable to start another print via the web interface - it results in some kind of "printer conflict" message in the web UI. The problem persists until the screen is manually cleared by selecting "Return" via the dial.
Potentially related problem: The "Print Complete" screen is sometimes displayed repeatedly. Selecting "return" causes the UI to switch to the model selection screen, but frequently, the UI spontaneously switches back to the "Print Complete" screen after a second or two. This behavior sometimes occurs multiple times after finishing a print.
Frequency: I have observed this behavior 5-6 times over the last 10 days or so since I built the printer.
Software environment: The MK4 is running the latest firmware (4.7.0).
RE: MK4 UI issue: "Print Complete" screen must be manually cleared before another print can start
This is not an issue, it is normal. I don't think it's a good solution either, but since you have to go to the printer after printing anyway to remove your printing part from the printing plate, you can also click once in the main menu of the printer. But I also hope that they will still change this. It also annoys me.

Edit: you can set the printer ready from Prusa Connect. It also exit the "Print Done" screen
