How to print this MMU2S print pls

Guys, I have a bunch of single-color prints successfully completed, but as of last week I have the MMU2S installed and need some help with the following print: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2299727

Originally, i thought i had to print each STL separately in its respective color. I even now have the #1 printed in blue. But quite obviously #2-4 won't print (or even slice) now, as they hang in the air.

Then I thought I had to import all four STLs at the same time and slice them togetether. But they don't seem "fit" properly into one another when imported at the same time, and I somehow doubt I can successfully position them manually in prusaslicer.

So what is the magic here please?

First chose the right printer. The "MK3S MMU2S" without "Single". You should see the purge block. Then it works as you thought.

Section 9 of the MMU2S printer handbook goes over the process for printing multi-colors.

Excellent, thank you very much!! I didn't realize that importing while the wrong (single) profile is active would result in something different than when the multi profile is active.
