Y-Corner needs support during print?

Hello folks, Ive gotten my MK2S running again and am in the process of printing a complete set of spares. The Y Corners (feet as it were) are oriented on my original parts as to have an overhang section. Does this print need support added, I have not gotten to the level of printing with supports so I don't know how much it can do without them.

Look @ your join date & # of posts. If > 1/day, please read more and type less. We will both be smarter for it.

Interesting... I am about to print a set of replacement parts in case I need them when something should break.

Either you print the y corner standing upright or you should use supports. But I don't think that Prusa prints the parts with supports. Unfortunately I did not manage to find gcodes from Prusa to see how they print it.

And here's the answer to our question: https://manual.prusa3d.com/Answers/View/1102/Orientation-support+when+printing+Y-corners+for+MK2S

They print it with support.
