Settings for MK3S?

I upgraded my printer to the MK3S extruder and downloaded PrusaSlicer. In the dropdown menus, under "Printer" I see MK3S, but under "Settings" there is only MK3. Does this matter? Are the settings the same? 

I'm asking because I'm having problems with my prints. I'm printing a part with a hole in the side for a screw. When it gets to the hole, it always jams/stops printing. I'm also seeing "stringing," which makes me think it could be a problem with the settings. 

 

Are there separate MK3S Sli3r settings, or are they the same as the MK3?

I would reinstall PrusaSlicer 2.0.0.

Part of the install process - you select which printer you have. MK3S is one of the choices.

It shows up in the Printer dropdown as well as on the Printer Settings tab.

Not that I know of any differences between the MK3 and MK3S settings. There might be some.

I already did this. I selected MK3S as my printer and made sure nothing else was checked. The dropdown menu still only shows MK3 under settings

Here is what my Settings page looks like.

You did run the configuration wizard and selected the MK3S - right?

But wait: here's your settings page showing the MK3S plain and clear. I'm confused.

If you mean the NOZZLE settings - those are the same for any MK3 printer.  A poor UI design choice Prusa made.

There are two drop down lists in the picture- the top one is captioned "Print Settings" and you can see that it says MK3, while the lower one captioned "Printer" has MK3S as an option. 

I see that tim-m30 is correct, and the nozzle settings are the same for both.
