Multimaterial/MK2/MK2S

Hello, I've just received my Multimaterial upgrade 😀 (and my MK2S upgrade)
I own a MK2. I've read the MMU manual and it seems you can upgrade directly from MK2 to MMU. But as I've got my MK2/S upgrade now, what is the best to do ? upgrading first to MK2/S then MMU ? upgrading directly from MK2 to MMU ?
Thanks for your answers.

Re: Multimaterial/MK2/MK2S

That is completely up to you.

I was in the same situation.

I choose to go straight to the MMU and keep the /S parts for spares, but I was having no issues with movement along my rods or the linear bearings. If I felt they were noisy or rubbing, I would have done the /S first.

You would not need to print all the /S parts - as some are replaced by MMU parts.

Ok understood, thank you aaron.
Do you know what are the /S parts I need to print (to avoid printing parts that will be replaced by MMU parts?

The extruder body is the only one I can think of. (The part that holds the PINDA sensor).
