INDX and MMU combined.

Hey all... I know the INDX is to replace the MMU, and it's a MUCH better system than the MMU of course. I converted my MMU3 into a 12 filament version, and tbh, it works really well. It's not usual that I need to print with more than 5 filaments, but I like to leave filaments loaded and then choose which filament to use when I print without having to load and unload spools. I have all spools in a big storage area with a dehumidifier (not just a heater, but legitimate dehumidifier that pulls moisture out of the air and drains it).

I love the INDX solution, it's perfect... but now that I have 12 filaments on hand, is there a path to set one of the 8 tool heads to use the MMU, and the remaining ones just to do their INDX thing? That would give me 7 heads dedicated to their filament, and 1 that could mix 5.

Thanks.

RE: INDX and MMU combined.

I don't think this is possible, and I very much doubt that functionality will be added by Prusa. The MMU3 and the INDX systems are completely separate and intended to be kept that way. 

I guess thats one positive of the Vortek system - up to 24 colours!

I do the same as you - like to have all colours loaded etc, and actually have 3 AMS units and a AMS HT on my H2D. When I upgraded the printer and add the Vortek kit I'll have 12 filaments loaded, with an extra on the left nozzle for supports.
