Upgraded MK4 to MK4S but slicing with MK4S profile gives "printer model doesn't match"

Hi,

I just installed the upgrade kit for my MK4, but when I switched to the MK4S PrusaSlicer profile, it gives the error in the screenshot. Is this intentional?

Best Answer by Karkovski:

Did you change the printer type in the menu?

Did you load the Mk4S firmware after the upgrade?
as you can see, there appear to be different versions of firmware

Thanks for the reply. I did load a 6.1.3 firmware after I finished upgrading and the filename I downloaded had 'prusa3d_fw_MK4_MK4S_MK39_MK39S_6_1_3.bbf', which seems to account for all of them. But I'll try again.

Ah, that was it @karkovski, thank you!!! Must have been too eager to start printing again and missed it! 🤐
