Automatic nozzle cleaning on Prusa MK4S?
Hi everyone,I'm curious if there's any kind of automatic nozzle cleaning system for the Prusa MK4S, similar to BambuLab's Wiper system. I know Prusa uses the purge line at the start of the print. But it would be great to have a solution that cleans the nozzle without constant supervision.
I know this might be overkill, but has anyone come up with a mod or any automatic cleaning method during the print?
Thanks for any tips!

the mk4 goe4s through a nozzle cleaning cycle before every print

That's not something I wouldn't know, I even wrote it there. I'm trying to find a better solution for that, one that can clean the nozzle completely.

I am sorry to have offended you, My mk3.9 goes through a nozzle cleaning cycle as part of the mesh bed levelling sequence before any purge line is printed. which is why I mentioned it. I am guessing the Mk4 does similar.
I read a thread earlier (After I replied to you) where people were discussing using a silicone brush,
I have no idea whether it's useful or not

I use MMU3 so My extruder is empty at the beginning of a print, and is unloaded after every print.

You could add a wiper and manually edit G-Code to wipe the nozzle before it starts printing......
Or get a MMU3 where its like a cod pull every time!! lol
