firmware asks for extruder when using Slic3r

Hi, when I use Sic3r (Prusa edition 1.37.1) to slice a MM object, my printers firmware asks me to choose the extruder.

I assume this means a gcode isn't given to the printer - but this makes me question if I'm on the right path here or not? what should I choose?

gcode generated from PrusaControl seems to make the firmware happy, but ....

Re: firmware asks for extruder when using Slic3r

Single extruder G-code targeted for the MM printers generated by the Slic3r PE or Prusa Control contain a "T?" G-code at the start, instructing the printer to ask you to select a spool at the start of the print. If this is an issue for you, you may change the T? to T0 and the printer will automatically start printing with the 1st filament.
