Thinking of buying prusa +MMU2s
HI Guys
I just need some help and info.
I am thinking of selling my current 3d printer and buying a prusa Mk3s + MMU2S, My usecase is : I print Flexible prints, and they need to be able to be printed in multicolor possibilities.
What are the things i should be aware of with the setup i mention?
Thinking of using octopi aswell,
What pitfalls should i be aware of and would it be a good alternative?

Hi,
Flexible material and MMU2 does not really work. At least my Ninjaflex tries weren't successful on a stock MK3s+MMU2s.
I really don't even know what to recommend for Flex multi color. Maybe some dual head printer or maybe Palette2. I think doesn't matter what kind of solution you will try, your use case is pretty special and most likely not easy to handle.
The only thing what you can do is to use MK2/MK3/Mini and do the manual color changes with M600 command. This way you have full control over the changing procedure and can fix any issues during the print. Printing from SD card in this case is a best option.
