The Bondtech firmware for the Prusa MK3s with V6 hotend does not appear to be up to date.  I contacted them and they said they are waiting for a new release.  The firmware reads build 3922.   It does not have PC Blend but the compiled version of the Prusa website does.  Anyone know why there is a difference?

I suspect that Bondtech does not regularly offer the latest firmware for all possible printer versions.

I always change and compile the FW myself. There I am independent of Bondtech. The effort for this is not too big.

Statt zu klagen, dass wir nicht alles haben, was wir wollen, sollten wir lieber dankbar sein, dass wir nicht alles bekommen, was wir verdienen.

RE: Bondtech

I have the Bondtech 3:1 gear ratio extruder and have always been under the impression that it had to supersede the Prusa firmware. I was having trouble with Pronterface. Joel, at Bondtech, said he didn't know why. We tried many different things, it would connect but not accept commands. He recommended to contact Prusa. After chatting with Prusa they admitted they too were having issues with Pronterface. I have not tried, nor looked, at PC Blend.
