Printed both ways, text up and down to test both possibilitys.

My mk4s send multible fault warning for filment stuck…. if anyone knows how to fix i would be thankfull.

 

Followed instructions from @3DesignsCH making Prusa Tool Box - CORE ONE - MK4S - MK4 - XL - MK3.9 - MK3.5 - MK3 - Mini+ - Mini.

Multi-Colour instructions with manual filament change:

  • Use my .3mf file for the Prusa MK4 with InputShaper

OR

  1. Set the printer up: (Source)
    1. In "Printer Settings"-->"General":
      • Set "Extruders" to the desired number of colours
      • Enable "Single Extruder Multi Material"
    2. In "Printer Settings"-->"Single extruder MM setup":
      • Set "Cooling tube position" to 10.
      • Set "Filament parking position" to 0.
      • Set "Extra loading distance" to 0.
      • These settings eliminate the filament getting retracted into the heatsink section and possibly jamming there and eliminating the big blob created in the wipe tower after changing filaments.  I think the original values are appropriate for a physical MMU(2) where the filament needs to be moved between the Bowden tube and the extruder tip but does the wrong thing for manual colour changes.
    3. In "Print Settings"-->"Wipe tower", disable "Prime all printing extruders".  Since we're manually changing filaments, there's no need to do this.
    4. In the "Printer Settings"-->"Custom G-code"-->"Tool change G-code" section, put the following: {if layer_num >= 0}M600 ; change to filament for extruder {next_extruder + 1}{endif}
  2. Import the Lid.stl and split it into parts
  3. Adjust the colours of the box and font
  4. Send it to the printer and enjoy =)
