Unwanted color change/wrong extruder

Hello guys,

I have a question about a problem with the multicolor printing with MMU2S, MK3S. 
When the print starts, it starts with the good colour. But after the first layer, it starts printing with another color (not the correct one)
The strange thing is, that it also happens with 1 color prints.
Do you have any idea or experience with this problem?

Hi. What exactly is happening? More detailed description would be helpful.

In general I would suggest you check your slicer settings. Printer is only doing what gcode is telling to do.

RE: Unwanted color change/wrong extruder

is your "filament run out" turned on?  if so maybe turn it off.

I have a Prusa,therefore I research.

also if you have spool join on and this happens randomly this means your filament sensor is not working correctly as it detects a runout when there is none.
