Prusa MK4/4S and input shaping
Hi, all - I've been using a Prusa MK4 for about a year, and I just upgraded a MK3S+ to a MK4S. Good times.
I noticed something peculiar. My MK4 has two print profiles: an Input Shaper profile and a previous non-Input-Shaper one that I used to use before that feature became available. The MK4S profile that I'm using only has profiles for different nozzle sizes and High Flow designation. The configuration assistant shows a big "Input Shaper" banner on the MK4S printer, but it has the same banner for the MK4 *and* those print are marked "Input Shaper" to distinguish them from "Legacy" print profiles. See attached image to see what I mean.
To me, it looks like "Input Shaper" has not only become the default mode (hence moving non-Input-Shaper to "Legacy"), but it isn't even a feature that Prusa is emphasizing - it's just the mode that Prusa printers use unless you configure them otherwise. Is that right?
RE:
Nowadays Input Shaper is on by default one the profiles and are the only ones actively updated. If I remember correctly non input shaper profiles are no longer updated.
You could compare legacy and new profiles to see for yourself difference in the settings. There should be some additional changes in the start gcode as well. One of them is checking minimal firmwar version on the printer, so this is not just a profile change per se, but also a firmware requirement as well.
See my GitHub and printables.com for some 3d stuff that you may like.

It's a bit confusing as across their product line it's not consistently applied but yes, for the Mk4S, it's now IS all the time.
