Mk3s -> Mk4, print configuration

Is there anything in a print config that is printer-specific?  I recently upgraded from Mk3 to Mk4 and Prusa Slicer is not showing me some of the User Presets for "Print".    It only shows one preset "BrokenLoad", even though I have 3 in the appropriate folder.

Hi,

I've just built a MK4 and came across this also when printing enclosure handles and DELTA ps bracket.  If you choose the Input shaping configuration for the MK4, then there are much fewer presets.  If you chose the non IS config, then I think most of the MK3 presets are available (e.g 0.30mm DRAFT).

However, I have had great success using the 0.2mm layer height STRUCTURAL preset, when printing eSUN PETG.  I have moved from an older Ultimaker 2+ and found the presets excellent and no tweaking required (YMMV).  In these cases I just downloaded the model from printables, not the gcode and sliced them with the slicer.

You can find reference to the presets you have available.  You can re-run the configuration wizard in Prusa Slicer and add the non IS version of the MK4
