When you add a new web camera, the camera is given the name "Unnamed Camera":

Trying to connect MK3S+ to PrusaConnect

daSpud — Mon, 08 Jun 2026 22:02:30 +0000

I have been printing through Connect on my MK4 and Core 1 L and like it (I had previously been using USB and micro SD). Now I want to add my MK3S+

I have a Raspberry Pi 3 and followed all the instructions but can't seem to get the printer connected. Then I started reading here and the Pi 3 won't work? Only the "0"?

I bought the MK3 4 years ago and I vaguely remember something about the Pi 0W and may even have bought it (I am not sure what I would be looking for). I would sincerely appreciate some help. Is the "3" the totally wrong path? Thank you.

Is it not possible to cancel a print using Prusa Connect while the "Stuck Filament detected" warning is active?

Hi everyone,

hopefully someone can help me with this, I'm starting to feel like an idiot because I cannot believe this is not possible.

I started a longer print before leaving the house earlier, as my MK4S as been performing almost flawlessly ever since i got it and I thought "worst case I'll just cancel it through Connect"...

I just got the "Stuck Filament detected" warning, and since I'm not home I cannot unload the filament. So, I obviously just want to cancel the print and try again once I'm home, but neither the "Cancel" button for the job nor the "Reset" button for the printer work! I always get either "unknown error" or "command rejected by printer" responses...

Is it really not possible to cancel a print/set temps to "Cooldown" while this warning is active?

Bonjour à toutes et à tous.

Je suis nouveau sur ce forum et je vous remercie de m'accepter.

Je viens d'installer mon imprimante Core One+ mais je n'arrive pas à transférer les fichiers de mon PC vers l'imprimante. Quand je vais dans la file d'attente j'ai les messages suivants :

L'imprimante n'est pas prête

Le fichier n'est pas téléchargé sur l'imprimante.

Auriez-vous des informations concernant ce dysfonctionnement ?

Merci pour vos réponses

Using OctoPi (on MK3) as a Webcam Host for Prusa XL via Prusa Connect Uploader - Stream & Zoom Questions

Oren Benhaim — Mon, 18 May 2026 09:23:41 +0000

Hi everyone,

I have a dual-printer setup consisting of a Prusa XL and a Prusa MK3. My Raspberry Pi running OctoPi is actively controlling the MK3, but I am also utilizing its webcam interface to host a USB camera that is physically installed on and monitoring my Prusa XL.

To bridge this camera feed into Prusa Connect for the XL, I'm using the community plugin prusa_connect_uploader (by rizz360 on GitHub). The integration works great for pushing standard snapshots to the XL's cloud dashboard!

However, I am trying to optimize this remote monitoring experience and would love to get your insights on a few limitations:

1. Continuous Live Streaming in Connect

Is there a more seamless, continuous way to view a constant video stream directly through the Prusa Connect web interface for the XL, rather than relying strictly on periodic static snapshots?

2. High-Frequency Snapshots (0.5s - 1s Interval)

Locally on my OctoPi instance, I can set a very fast snapshot interval (every 0.5 to 1 second), which creates a smooth, near real-time visual feed. Currently, Prusa Connect refreshes the XL's feed every 10 seconds, which feels quite laggy to monitor. Is there a workaround to allow Prusa Connect to accept high-frequency updates for a smoother, pseudo-RT stream experience?

3. Camera Zoom Control via Connect

Is there any existing method, plugin setting, or upcoming feature that allows us to control the webcam's digital or hardware zoom directly from the Prusa Connect UI, without having to log back into the local OctoPrint server of the MK3?

Would love to hear how other multi-printer users are optimizing their webcam feeds on Prusa Connect under similar setups.

Thanks in advance for your help!

How can I change or recover my user and pass for Prusalink?

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble accessing PrusaLink and I can't find a way to either change or recover my login credentials.

My setup:

Printer: Prusa MK3S Firmware: 3.14 PrusaLink running on: Raspberry Pi 3B+ connected via ethernet cable

The credentials were set up during the initial PrusaLink configuration. Unfortunately, I no longer remember them and I can't find any option in the printer's LCD menu to reset or change them.

I've already checked:

The official Prusa documentation The printer's LCD menu settings Various threads online — without success

Is there a way to reset the PrusaLink credentials without losing my printer's configuration? Do I need to reflash the Raspberry Pi, or is there a config file I can edit directly?

Thanks in advance!

Set Ready Automatically after print

Alec Stockton — Tue, 12 May 2026 16:51:47 +0000

Hi All,

I'm guessing the answer is "no" but here goes:

Is there a way to "Set Ready" a printer automatically after completing print?
We have a bed cleaner mod on one of our old MK3s that was working well on Octoprint but it would be great to have all of our printers on PrusaConnect.

Thanks for your help.

Prusa Slicer Pyhsical Printer and UN/PW

RCarnaroli — Thu, 07 May 2026 01:12:36 +0000

So I just got my C1L and I noticed every time I opened P Slicer and went to view the printer, I had to re-enter the UN/PW in whatever browser it's spawning. Iplayed around a little and looked in the forums. I didn't find exactly my issue. So in case anyone else comes across this, I fixed it by putting the UN and PW in the URL in Slicer. So maker:longrandompassword@the_ip_on_your_network. I left the username and password in the config too. But I think it's not using them.

PrusaSlicer 2.9.4 with XL - selecting default extruder for all parts of the print

Denesius — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 17:41:01 +0000

Thought I'd share a revelation with the latest version of Prusaslicer: Sliced an object with extruder #3, and noticed that the slicer was using the default extruder (#1) for support. Never came up before! So looked at the print setting section, under multiple extruders, and the print components (support, infill, perimeter extruders) all had extruder #1 selected. Could not be changed to 0 - which would define the default selected extruder. Results are in the attached build plate images. <----- sorry, cannot upload images.....! Surely I'm not expected to reset all these to the selected object extruder every time I make a change?? Turns out what needs to be done, rather unintuitively, is to change the 'Support Material Raft/Skirt Extruder' to 0 - then the system defaults to the selected extruder for everything. Last picture, #2. <----- sorry, cannot upload images.....! Just an FYI for others who may struggle with this

Prusa-Link Raspberry Pi Imager

rbutram — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 17:10:16 +0000

I'm trying to put Prusa-Link on an Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W using the image file from the github and the Raspberry Pi imager software. When I use the custom image option the Customization tab where you are supposed to set up the hostname and wifi settings is greyed out. How can I add those settings to my RPi so that it will connect to my network once it's installed on my MK3S? Out of curiosity I loaded OctoPi onto the RPi and was able to use the Customization options. The OctoPi image also has a file on the SD card where I can edit the Wifi settings. The Prusa-Link image does not have a file like that that I could find.

Any help is appreciated
