====== SPOT configuration for PrusaSlicer ======

To maximize your chances of success in creating your most ambitious 3D prints and prototypes that will shape the world of tomorrow, your 3D printing coach has applied all his experience and expertise to create optimized filament profiles specifically for the filament-printer pairing available at SPOT. It is essential that you follow these instructions and use the SPOT filament profile.

===== 1. Download PrusaSlicer =====

  * Logically, to use a Prusa 3D printer, it’s recommended to use the software [[https://www.prusa3d.com/page/prusaslicer_424/| PrusaSlicer ]].
  * Follow the instructions to install the software.

===== 2. Select the good 3D printer models  =====

  - Once the software is installed: //**Menu -> Configuration -> Configuration Wizard...**//{{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_152035.png?nolink&600 |}}
  - In the "//**Prusa Research**//" menu, select "//**Original Prusa MK4 Input Shaper**//", select "//**Original Prusa i3 MK3S & MK3S+**//" , both with 0.4 mm nozzle 
:!: make sure to select MK3, not MK3.5 or MK3.9 and make sure to unselect "//Original Prusa MK4S//" :!: {{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_152925.png?nolink&600 |}}{{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_153619.png?nolink&600 |}}
  - In the menu "Prusa Research SLA" : unselect all printer {{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_153001.png?nolink&600 |}}
  - In the menu "Filaments": unselect every filament settings by clicking on "None". Then, select PETG > Generic PETG.

  - Select //**Finish**//

===== 3. SPOT filament setting =====

  - Download and unzip these two projects : {{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:spot_settings_12.03.25.zip |}}
  - Go to "//**menu -> file -> Open project...**//" and select one of the project you just downloaded
  - Once the project is opened, go to the "Filament" menu (ensure the filament's printing temperatures have automatically adjusted as shown below) {{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_155345.png?nolink&600 |}}
  - Save these presets and rename it "SPOT PETG - MK4IS" (if you opened the MK4IS project) or SPOT PETG - MK3S (if you opened the MK3S project){{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_160146.png?nolink&600 |}}
  - Return on "Plater" view and you can now see and select the custom SPOT filament profile to print. {{ :public:spot_-_3d_printing:capture_d_ecran_2024-09-07_160423.png?nolink&600 |}}
  - Repeat the process for the second project you downloaded

At the end of the process, **close PrusaSlicer** and reopen it before importing your parts.
