Mini with PrusaLink/Connect as Printfarm
Im in need of compact portable printers for workshops. When not at workshops I'd like to use them as a printfarm.
Will this be possible with Prusa Minis soon or in the near future using Prusa software (eg. Link or Connect)?
I use Connect with an MK3S and it works like a charm. If this was, or will soon be, possible with Prusa Minis it would be great.

Based on Jo comment on this youtube video the answer should be yes, but we don't know how it would work and when it will be released.

I wouldn't hold my breath. This has been one of the biggest disappointments in the PrusaConnect infrastructure. Given that the Mini was originally touted as an ideal farm computer, the fact that the only online access available years after its release is local Prusalink, which is severely limited, is a travesty. PrusaConnect with Mk3S has its own share of issues but it's leaps and bounds ahead of Prusalink on the Mini. And I haven't seen anything that makes me believe the Mini will be integrated anytime soon.

Okay so basically we'll just have to wait and see. If I deside to get those four Minis and there is nothing ready for them, I will probably set them up with a PC running octoprint containers and octofarm. Realistically PrusaConnect won't reach similar functionality in the coming 6 months anyways, it would simply be to many workhours I guess.
Thanks for the answers.

Thx that is actually a bit promising.
