Does Prusament work on MK2S?

Hello,

I am curious to see if anyone else has issues with using Prusament on a MK2S. I recently bought Galaxy Silver directly from Prusa then bought Pearl Mouse from Amazon. It seems to clog no matter what I try. Here's what I have tried based on the suggestions I've found across the web.

  1. Switched the nozzle out from old 0.35mm back to standard new 0.40mm.
  2. As suggested, tried kicking up the temperature to 225°C.
  3. Tried latest version of PrusaSlicer which has default settings for Prusament. 

All end in the same result of hearing and seeing the extruder clicking. I thought, "okay maybe it's the extruder that's going bad?" I then test out my usual filaments- eSun PLA+, the old Prusa PLA, Fillamentum Vertigo Grey, and Atomic Filament PLA with no issue. I just ran through an entire 1K roll of eSun without issues. Before this roll I was trying simple prints like a Benchy but it couldn't finish the top part. It's strange but I have to ask is Prusament possibly incompatible with older machines like the MK2S? I have run out of ideas. 

(I'll add pictures later)

If this is in the wrong topic section, please let me know. Thanks

Hi @lucas-d

How did it go? Can you use it?
Mine is complete garbage, but my eSun does a super fine job with the same settings (shown here).
