Multi material upgrade version compatibility
Hi, my friend sells older version of MMU2. He was using MMU2 on his MK3. So my question is, What oldest version of multi material upgrade is compatible with MK4. Can I use this MMU2 with my MK4?
RE: Multi material upgrade version compatibility
The MMU2 does not have a suitable cable for the Mk4.
the MMU3 has a small power and data board that fits on to the MMU2 electronics and provides a new style connector for the mk4 cable connector type.
You could use the mmu2 with an MMU3 upgrade package, on the Mk4

Or you can buy a MMU3 for MK4 which could be just a bit more expensive than the MMU2 and MMU3 upgrade combination
RE: Multi material upgrade version compatibility
Thx to all. In the end, I ordered new MMU3 upgrade for MK3.
Do you know where I can get files for printable parts? In the link, there are only files for the MK3 version. Not MK4
RE: Multi material upgrade version compatibility
I would delay printing mmu3 parts as the beta testers have just received updated parts...
so the new parts will not be immediately available.
the last parts were pretty good if you are in a hurry!

Yeah, I've had the MK4 for about 6 months and I'm very satisfied, so I decided to upgrade to the next level. So I ordered and paid for the MMU3.
I contacted support for printable parts and today (20.3.2024) they told me, that MMU3 for MK4 not yet ready for shipping. When it is ready, the files for the printable parts will be available.
However, in the information about the waiting time, they state that the mk4 upgrade is in stock. Well, there is probably some kind of communication error.

Nevertheless the current mk4 fw stil does not work with MMU3.
RE: Multi material upgrade version compatibility
I don't think the MMU3 aware Firmware for Mk3.9 and mk4 printers has been released yet...
