MMU1 hotend for MMU2

Hello all,

I own a mk2.5+MMU2 and I can't print a single successful muticolor print after more than 2 weeks of tuning...(Prusament PLA, firmwares 3.5.0 and 1.0.2)

I would like to use my MMU1 hotend (which has never been used) for my MMU2. I guess I must use the new ptfe tube which comes with the mmu2 kit. But I want to know if I can use it without other modification, because I know some of you guys had success with the heatbreak of the mk3, and it seems to me that the heatbreak that was in the mmu1 extruder was like the actual mk3 heatbreak.

Has someone ever tried this ?

Re: MMU1 hotend for MMU2

I made this change and would recommend it. As you said the heatbreak for the mmu1 is the same as the MK3, and when they were doing testing for the mmu1 they ended up changing the heatbreak to the mmu1/mk3 one from what the mk2 had at the time.
