    When using PrusaSlicer with RRF 3.01, don't forget to enable "Label objects" so that you can use the object cancellation facility (M486).

    Hey, just in case you still need it, here is a very basic config you can import directly into Prusa slicer. From what i've seen on the discord, most people find or make a config as a starting point and adjust settings as needed. Even with this config, you may need to do some tweaking to get it working the way you want ( number of tools (I assumed 4), retraction settings, nozzle sizes (i assumed 0.4 for all tools), etc.) The Start and End gcode in this config is what I use on my TC with success. Also, note that the origin is set to the front left corner of the buildplate (this might be different than your firmware configuration)

    Just keep in mind that there's an inherent risk to using a config sight-unseen.

    NOTE: You'll need to change the file extension on the attached .txt to .ini in order to import it into Prusa Slicer.

    Feel free to reach out in this forum or on the discord if you run into issues.

    What do you mean about the inherent risks? The specifics for our printer are still contained in the firmware configuration files right? So this shouldn't change all that much? What sort of things would we nee to be on the look out for? I'm asking because I am having trouble getting Prusa slicer to work so I wanted to try this basic config file and see if that helps. However, my tool changer is a little weird in terms of the specific tools and some other features so I want to make sure I'm being careful using this.

    "Risks" was probably too serious of a word. I just meant that I'm not sure how the numerous settings in that config (many of which I haven't touched and have no idea what they do!) will work on your specific printer. There are things like acceleration, feedrate, and jerk settings which I changed in the slicer to match my printer's config.g. I think you're right though, if you attempted to exceed a max feedrate, for instance, RRF very likely defaults to the maximum set in config.g.

    At a minimum, you'll probably just want to check the "Extruder" settings in the "Printer Settings" tab to make sure they match your custom setup. I didn't add any offsets through the slicer, so those should be handled by your config.g as well.
