I just re-read your message and realized that you are probably seeing the "2 step warmup" procedure used on the Mini. It pre-heats the nozzle to 170C to soften the filament but keep it below oozing temperature. Mesh bed leveling is done, and only once that is done, the nozzle heats up to full print temp. This prevents little dots of filament from being left on the bed during leveling, a common problem on previous printers. I suggest you start a print and let it sit until 100% fully complete before worrying too much. If it has actually failed to print, then contact support via online chat.

I can not make a print..When I start it up it say...printer is not calibrated and I will not let me  calibrate and make the first layer...because the Nozzle is only 170 degrees...It bed level 3 times and then it stop.....If I use Prusaslicer and use 210/60 it say 170 degrees in setting....People say ...buy a original Prusa and you will spend your time printing  and not having problems??????????????

RE: Nozzle can not keep the temperatur

The Prusa Mini has a two stage heating process to reduce the chances of the Nozzle dribbling during bed levelling. 

have you considered letting the  printer complete it's startup process? 

 

It might just surprise you!
