What do I need to change within Prusa Slicer if I change the nozzle diameter?
Hi, usually I print using a nozzle of 0.4mm diameter. In case I print with a nozzle of different diameters, where in PrusaSlicer do I need to make the changes? Is Printer Settings->Extruder 1->Size the only place that needs to be changed?

Just re-run the installation wizard and install the default profiles for your nozzle size of choice.

I have changed many settings' value. If I re-run installation wizard, I will need to go through every single parameters to make changes accordingly. Is there an easier way for my case?

Hello,
The official help docs mention adjusting the diameter value as well as the extrusion width :

"Other nozzle diameters
If you want to use a nozzle with a different diameter than the ones we already mentioned, you have to create the profile in PrusaSlicer manually. Starting with your standard 0.4 mm nozzle, you have to change the nozzle diameter in the Printer Settings and Extrusion width (percentage-wise). Keep in mind that the maximal layer height is always around 80% of the nozzle diameter."
BTW, as this forum is community run and since the Prusa staff doesn't post here you might want to contact support to get 100% accurate information on such topics.
Nonetheless I hope this helped !
