Re: Cura settings for the Original Prusa i3 MK2.5
Thanks! I tried it out on macOS and works perfectly. I haven't actually sliced nor printed anything yet though 🙂
Re: Cura settings for the Original Prusa i3 MK2.5
You're welcome 😉

Re: Cura settings for the Original Prusa i3 MK2.5
Will you have additional material profiles as they are available?
Re: Cura settings for the Original Prusa i3 MK2.5
Which materials are you specifically interested in? There are some ongoing tests, but I have no ETA at the moment.
Re: Cura settings for the Original Prusa i3 MK2.5
Nylon and soft materials, if possible.
Re: Cura settings for the Original Prusa i3 MK2.5
Hi Jakub, This doesn't work anymore for Cura 3.5. Following the instructions here ( https://manual.prusa3d.com/Guide/How+to+import+profiles+to+Cura/703 )
Results in several issues
1) Filament Diameter defaults to 2.85mm (Because there is no corresponding extruder definition, I think this is new to Cura 3.5)
2) Materials don't show up when selecting Prusa Mk3 in Cura. They only show Generic and Ultimaker. I think this is related to problem 1) where cura thinks that it only takes 2.85mm.
