Confused about adding Octoprint to multiple profiles
I have Octoprint configured with PrusaSlicer and a 0.6mm nozzle. I now want to add support for a 0.25 nozzle. However, when I select "Original Prusa i3 MK3S & MK3S+ 0.25 nozzle - Copy" and then click on "Add physical printer", I do not see any option to select the existing Octoprint configuration. I'm only given the option to add a new Octoprint instance.
So now I manually re-enter all the information for my Octoprint device (IP address, API Key), I name it "Octoprint", and now PrusaSlicer complains that there already is an Octoprint physical printer. If I hit yes, it DELETES my 0.6mm configuration!
Am I missing something? Do I have to name my Octoprint physical printer to something ilke "Octoprint 0.6" to differentiate it from "Octoprint 0.25", even though they are the same Octoprint device?
Best Answer by FoxRun3D:
The way to add additional printer profile to a physical printer is to edit the physical printer, then for each profile you want to add, click on the small plus sign in the upper right corner and select it from the list.
I wish Prusa did a better job documenting this.
