Automatic start of the next file in the queue?
I know that sounds very special, but it has a simple background.
I use a modification with which the printer pulls a printing plate from a magazine at the start of the print and ejects it at the end of the print.
There is an app with which I can string several plates together from GCODE, but somehow there are always problems with the prints just hanging up in the middle from time to time. The problem could be avoided by simply dragging the individual GCODES plates into Prusa Connect instead of a modified GCODE and telling it to start the next print automatically. Just a button somewhere where you can activate it or something like that.

You use something like JobOx? https://jobox.tech/pages/setup-jobox-on-prusa-mk4 see step 5 for possible automations.
I guess talking to the printer API via PrusaLink ( and not PrusaConnect) would be easier in that case

Yes, JobOx, and that's exactly the problem.
Since switching to binary GCODE, there's been a massive bug that causes the print to freeze after editing with the JobOx app. I've tried everything with JobOx, but there's no solution.
They say they can't fix the problem and I should just reset my firmware to 5.0. But then I'll lose a lot of features and no MMU3 connection, which is out of the question for me. The other option is to do everything via Octoprint, but I have 26 printers, which is far too many for me to convert everything to Octoprint, especially because Prusa Connect is getting better and better.

Disable binary gcode in the slicer?

RE: Automatic start of the next file in the queue?
I generally have to deactivate the binary GCODE because the JobOx app cannot handle binary GCODE. If I then load the normal GCODE, I have the bug every second time, if I then convert it back to binary GCODE, then only every fourth time. Unfortunately there is no solution in sight....

Wow this is weird
