tpu question
Can I print with TPU on the Prusa i3 M3s+ with MMU#?
Best Answer by Volker:
Yes and No. I was able to print a TPU/PLA object just for testing. It worked - but I did not check reliability. It depends on the flexibility of the TPU. You need to open the tension screw of the extruder and this can create some load problems.
Single load for a TPU print on the other side is no big deal - once it's loaded the print is going through.

This is something I am looking at for the future. I am finding that the MMU may not be the best option for different materials and a dual head is necessary.
There is a multi material project that I have have seen that looks promising that has multiple feed systems and can do many more materials than the MMU at one time. That will be my next printer.
