Emergency spool

Hello everyone,

This question may have already been answered somewhere, but I can't find it.

For a Prusa xl 5 or 2 head, is it possible to tell the slicer to use spool 1 under normal circumstances and spool 2 if spool 1 is empty. With no handling required

I need to do this for my support material.

I believe the feature you are requesting is 'Spool Join'

Yes.

Configure which toolheads to use on the printer itself at the start of the print when you are confirming materials.

Cheerio,
