Just about to buy a 2nd hand MK3S - Any checks to confirm its a genuine Prusa and not a clone?

Hi,

I have searched the forums but you get a ton of results when searching clone or genuine, so I'm sorry if this has been asked already.

I'm going to pick up a 2nd hand MK3S in a few hours and was wondering if there is a sure fire way of confirming it's a genuine Prusa and not a clone?

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Look at the stepper motors. They each have the Prusa name, and where that stepper goes.

Thanks for the advice but the deal fell through.
