Is there a verifiable reason prusa decided to go with a Webcam that seems to scream "you've got mail" instead of something from the 21st century?

@Devildoc5_128373 That is how most pan/tilt cameras look.
@Devildoc5_128373 Is there a verifiable reason why you decided to ask this question on printables instead of annoying your facebook friends or other people that care?
This was my last make of 2024. Perfect addition to my Mini. Glad I made it. Looking forward to when Prusa releases the motor control firmware update.
Thanks for making this available. I reprinted mine on orange so that it's easier to spot when left on the extruder :)
I printed this before opening the box and realizing that Prusa already printed one for me...
oooooops! :)
@JebLeeTark Thanks for this comment! I'm expecting my accelerometer and wanted to have the parts printed beforehand, but now I see I don't have to 😊
This is cool. Are the panels swappable so the spool can be on the left side?
@Tomek need to know this aswell
@Tomek Yes, on the promotion video, they showed that it is possible to mount the filament on both sites.
EDIT: My question would be if I can mount 2kg spools? (edited)
I printed one that I splitted in 6 pieces to fit in MK4S plate.
I will post a remix if anyone is interested. (edited)
It looks like the PTFE passthrough is different than the one that is shown in the assembly manual. The one that is listed here is the same for the sides, while the one on the assembly guide isnt.
@BioZombieActi_193990 i also cannot find the correct STL file...
@dbailey_1757298 no luck on my end as well. I ended up printing the one here only to realize it was uploaded wrong and doesn't fit. For anyone reading this, this is the piece we need (E1, orange arrow)
mmu_enclosure_PTFE_passthrough_R1.stl it is not the same as seen in the assembly instructions.It does not fit into the lid seat with the hinges. The exact version is the one in the photo, but it does not exist in the files.
@Prusa3D - you need to fix this!
It's just awesome when your own 3D-printer is printing the upgrade for another 3D-printer. Came out a little stringy, but easily removed. The printed parts by Prusa are just easy to print and print well without any supports. MK3.5S-upgrade here I come!
The third picture shows the nozzle hanging off the fan door. What’s the purpose of this?
Very useful tool even when you do full hot end swaps like I do.
Easier to align and insert the hot end and also to keep the orientation right.
Now with the big fan duct of the MK4S and the reduced accessibility, this tool makes swapping nozzles/hot ends a breeze.
Printed both, E3D and standard version for silicone socks, which will cover all nozzles that I‘m using.
If someone is unsure, the E3D version is for the new E3D high flow nozzles, since with those the heat block is sitting a few millimeters higher as the nozzle is slightly longer.
Printed in Prusament PETG Prusa Orange with suggested setting, no issues printing.
Thanks for coming up with this tool :-)
When will you post what parts we need to print for updating MK4->MK4S?

@ssill2_130442 Prusa support told me only the parts for the nextruder but most of them are pccf and I believe those are part of the upgrade so there is only a few parts to print.
@RJ_45695 oh cool. My parts are all printed in a lime green abs, so I'll have to see when the kits get here. I've got two of them to upgrade.
Model is great.

IMPORTANT FOR USERS WITH THE OLD PSU:
When I reached the step to install the PSU cable into the foot ( https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/2-assembling-the-enclosure_688527#753591) I was afraid that I would damage the insulation as the cable channel is too narrow. I printed the modified part by @Derek_1333030 which worked flawlessly. Later when I printed the PSU holder I noticed that this part also would not fit my PSU (I printed the current holder thinking I had the newest PSU revision - My printer was ordered on 23.10.2020). So I figured that the holder has a version for the old PSU but the feet that came with the enclosure only fit the new one. @Prusa3D I opened a case today with Marek over chat to review the guide to state that you have to print an extra foot if you have the old PSU. Anyway except form that little hiccup I really like the enclosure.
@Polypaul It seems they haven't bothered in nearly 3 months...
Can somebody provide the link or location of the Spool Holder Rod? It's not with the print files. (for the mini+ enclosure).

@Jet_249015 I have the same problem. I haven't printed it yet, but I found this spool holder rod on printables.com that seems to be the right one:

@Bluebeard16_681823 Sorry for beeing late to the game, but I had the same issue and for anyone looking:

Works like a charm!
When will the gcode be updates for the mk4s?
Since I've not seen a full breakdown of the individual parts per Gcode (again), I'm providing a full list, for those that may want to print a full MK3.9/4 set, without using the pre-sliced Gcode, which is actually set to the speed profile, and uses Grid infill. I prefer Gyroid and Quality print profile, (quality is actually what Prusa even recommends, not sure why they produced G-Code that's set for speed)

@psychlore_276980 Thank you. I was wondering what exactly I need, as I did not understand why there are so many parts but only a few gcode files.

Wish the gift cards were for filament lol
In Just wish it would be gift cards for the Prusa store
made with Prusament PETG Prusa Orange - Mini+IS -- thanks for that helpful tool !!
I was thinking for weeks, for a similar rig ;-)
Thanks for it!
Will there be a MK4S update for this awesome tool???
I printed mine in PCCF and it came out awesome. Highly recommend it for use with MK4 and hope that any update for the MK4S maintains the tools usefulness.
I'm so happy that I could contribute to the platform! Y'all are the best!
Printed the presliced .gcode file using the provided Prusament PETG. Everything came out perfect and no issues with installing.
Resliced the provided 3mf for a 0.6mm nozzle, printed without problems! Super happy with the upgrade, speed and quality are amazing, it feels like a new printer!
Great design, able to print out the box nicely. If possible kindly make the clip of the box to be tighter. (edited)
I love this, any chance we can get the step file to remix this more easily?
@ChrisMoran I agree with that. It would be great to be able to change the size via parameters.
Steps I took to get a perfect tension:
1. I used the Belt tuner app to get the same frequency (very difficult because most of the time I got no reading)
2. I test the alignment by squeezing the CoreXY Front Left and the X-axis on either side and tighten/untighten the tensioning screws slightly (then move the X-axis assembly back and all the way to the front) and test the alignment again on both sides (there should be no play between the parts.
3. Repeated steps 1 and 2 until I got the same frequency AND no play between the parts. My frequency was 80 Hz.
4. Printed the homing tower (lowered the nozzle temperature to 200) and tighten the tensioning screws both with the same amount (half turn; 180 degrees) and direction until the walls had a smooth finish. Then I untightened both tensioning screws 45 degrees and checked the smooth finish (it degraded). Then I tightened both tensioning screws 22.5 (half of 45) degrees and the smooth finish was back. My frequency is now 84 Hz.
5. Reprinted the tower. It's ok now (edited)
If this model makes no sense to you because it is poorly documented, look at https://help.prusa3d.com/article/adjusting-belt-tension-xl_401793
The design of the non-enclosure version is great, but the camera position feels a bit awkward.
@fribbledom I agree. After going through and printing it, I do no like the camera angle.
My remix. Mounts higher and cord tucks neater at the top
