Suggestions for first print?
Now that it's on it's way (which means a week if my mk3 shipping was any indication), I need to start planning a print and (if needed) buying filament.
Any good suggestions for:
1) Basic test/calibration prints for 2-5 colors?
2) Impressive demo prints for multi-color?
I'll start poking around thingiverse.

You will need to start printing the pre-sliced models before anything else, just to make sure it's working.
On Thingiverse, check out user cipis (roman.t). He has some awesome models 🙂 https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=cipis&dwh=895b87cc0a3e9b8

The files that come on the pre-loaded memory card are some good ones.
Benchy is a good test of overhanging and bridging.
The planetary gear is a cool object to show off the capabilities. I usually have to spin it with a power drill to break it in before it runs smoothly.
The bottle opener is a good simple 2 color model. It pauses for you to change colors near the final layers.
The castle is the most detailed object to show off some fine details.
After printing these, go find a few other objects on Thingiverse.

Steve, this is MMU2; there are no files on the memory card for this 🙁

Looks like the GCODE is for MMU V1, did they update it for the new MMU V2?
