What printer do I have ? 🙂

Hi

I have a MK3 - but, do I have a MK3S  ?   I don't have a MK3S+

I'm about to update my firmware and am setting up PrusaSlicer to do it but it's asking me what printer I have

Can I just select all standard button?

My printer says i3 Mk3 - the support on the printer says 1_75mm_MK3

After some serious Sherlock Holmes deduction, this would suggest I have the MK3 - not the MK3S.  

I'm not sure if it's important which one I have or if it's determined on when I bought it.... which I can't remember.

Thanks 🙂

Printer identification

Not enough information to tell you.  When did you buy it?  When did it ship?  Is the print cooling fan angled or perpendicular to the bad?

Hi.  It would have been 2017

It's not a Mk3S+ - doesn't have an angled fan

Then it is an MK3 or earlier.

I got confused too!

Mine is a "new open box" from Ebay and it appears to be the MK3s but nowhere on the printer does it say that.

When you power on the printer and wait for the info screen to appear on the LCD you will see the printer type on the 4th line.

Mine says "Prusa i3 MK3S OK." I bought it as an MK3S and upgraded it to the +. But the MK3S and S+ are the same printers as far as firmware is concerned.

Or like this for a MK3.
