For me it fails on XYZ axis test ... 🙁 On v4.3.4 it's fine, I have 3 green checkboxes, on v4.4.0 it fails ... I reported to support on chat, suggestion to stay on v4.3.4.

Looks nice!

Now I can send files directly from PrusaSlicer to printer and start printing 🙂

The files are copied to the printer's USB or does the PC which send the file stays powered up?

RE:

It will copy it to USB and will print from there. You can select also to copy only and start print manually from menu or from PrusaLink via browser

After the header "PrusaLink updated", the release doc switches to referring to the MINI+ printer. Is the MINI+ required, or is this all compatible with the OG MINI?

I think it is the same, they just have one product currently they are producing.

Buddyboard is the same.

Anyone got PETG to print with 4.4.0 without complaining the fan doesn't work?

I wonder how soon we get Prusa Connect integration.  Seems like that should be soon?

RE:

Is it supposed to be able to list the files on the USB stick? Clicking on the various USB stick and folder icons do nothing. I'm using wired Ethernet.

There's a bug report on GitHub for it.

Regarding this, disabling Fan Check in Settings did the trick.

In PrusaLink do you mean? Yeah it should.

Well, in Prusalink in a Firefox browser, on the Storage tab, clicking on the USB Stick icon or the letters USB, which appear to be clickable, does nothing. The folder icon below appears not to be clickable and also does nothing if you click around it. I see this is already entered as a bug in github:

https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy/issues/2318

Also, it is really annoying to have to enter the API key again in the same browser when the printer has been restarted. Can't that be saved in a cookie in the browser? Or, have it treated as a password so the browser can save it. This is already marked as an enhancement in github:

https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy/issues/2302

Mark

Just looking into this. The self test was also failing until I added the fans speeds to the footer. Maybe it wasn't monitoring them without the display refresh? I bumped up the fan speed to around 60% and it seemed to continue  w/o error, but I am going to just disable fan check like @4ever-audi for now.

I installed 4.4.0 Beta2 and wifi module on 3 Minis. It works well. Simple and useful GUI, without unnecessary information like on Octoprint. There are minor bugs, but they do not interfere with work. Great job Prusa team !!!

Same here. PETG print  - print fan not working check cabling but fan test as well as self test got green marks.
Haven't tested other materials, like PLA if that is the same or not.

Perhaps FW bug or material profile bug?

RE: 4.4.0 beta firmware with wifi / Prusalink support Firmware Signature Fail

I compiled 4.4.0, put the two files on USB stick, and when trying to install, I get the message "Firmware Signature Failed".

Do I have to break the security jumper to use the Beta firmware?  Do I have to do something special to get the signed binary?
