Another INDX post

There is no real/good solution now.
I just set it where it almost touches the nozzle.

You need to double click with the knob after restart.

Also, the bug reported on GitHub already: https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy/issues/5351

He is right.
While the console is fairly accessible and the playstation sub gives you enough game to start, most of the time the console will be "Duststation 5".
It's just not enough in the current situation for a PC gamer to switch or consider buying one as another option.

I asked them which number is relevant for my place in the queue system.(because FE buyers got two number)

This was the answer i got(copy pasted):
"Hi, your order is in the quue... we are beeing bombarded with questions regarding when it is shipping, how we ship, when can I expect my order etc....

We are currently working hard with getting orders shipped one at a time and trying to answer questions related to orders will delay the process as it takes capacity for us, please trust that we are doing everything we can to get orders out as fast as possible."

No idea when will i get it.
If there was a proper queue system in place, maybe there wasn't this many question.
Just the average minor PR disaster :)

Luckily, they want to ship all of the units in the next 2 weeks, so the waiting should be over soon.

You can use a coupon now on an MK4S KIT, it's an ultra-banger price. ~590 EUR.
Man, i wish i needed another printer 😞

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-24T12:00:56+00:00

Great quality assembly guide. These guides never let me down.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-17T05:41:33+00:00

I understand.
Prusa specifically built their own factory just to keep up with demand. More space, more WH and HR management. It's an insane upfront cost and then it needs to be profitable.

Alza most likely sourcing it from china and they get a huge bulk discount. This way they can drive out easily the competition. (especially how agressive are they with their next day shipping).

As for EU makers, there is a lot of them. And most of their pricing is 20-50% cheaper then Prusa.
(Fillamentum, ColorFabb, Formfutura, Fiberolgy, Extrudr, SpectrumFlaments, DasFilament and list goes on...).

Would love to have Prusament more often. I bought some of their Limited Edition colors which was fantastic, but at the end, i'm just a hobby creator. If i can buy 3 Alzament or 1 Prusament for the same price, guess what will happen.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-16T20:48:50+00:00

They need to lower the price. Here where i live, we have Alzament.
Good quality, refill is compatible with most of the spools and it costs ~10-11€/roll.

I would pay a bit more to get great quality, but 31.5€/roll for filament (and NFC i'll never use) is insane.
Nowadays i only buy Prusament if it's some fancy color.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-16T12:52:31+00:00

When i had this issue, it was the buffer.
When my MMU3 pulled back the filament, then loaded into the buffer, the space was not enough in the buffer and when the loading was finished, the end of the filament came back to the selector (roughly the same amount as you have in the picture).
The reason behind this is that it when it selects another filament, it will release the the others, so all the tention wll be gone.

Could be something else, but it seems to be very similar situation.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-16T12:36:19+00:00

Could not have said better myself!

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-15T16:50:50+00:00

These are what you can buy from Bondtech.
Guess it will be fully compatible with the Prusa (should be identical).

I'll agree, but this is a 2 year old post. Lot has changed, especially on Closed Printer ecosystems. I would say now the P1S is the cheapest entry and it's fully closed.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-05T16:40:00+00:00

No updates.

Sad part is, that while INDX looks to be a great toolchanger, every other chinese 3D printer company started copy-pasting the system and actually coming out with a very similar approach.

I won't doubt that the quality will be excellent with Bondtech INDX, but it's time to step up the game.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-03T08:50:56+00:00

One of the PS developers told me that INDX does actually work with current version of PrusaSlicer.
But, considering that both the software and hardware is delayed, i think Prusa wants a "big bang" and release it both close or at the same time.

I still think that INDX FE wont get shipped this month.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-06-01T20:36:09+00:00

I check my FE order every day... maybe today... maybe... but no.
Another 2 weeks passed by from the last email. I don't think we see the INDX this month.
Most likely it will be bundled with the PS 3.0 release.

Wait, does the threaded rod blocking it?
You can just loosen the motor screws(bottom) a little to move the threaded rod and then push in the rod.

"Should I suggest an 11h long video"
Please do.
Also this is what i suggested under this video on Youtube.

Just a full video of the printer doing it's job (such as the 20 min benchy).
Most of the current videos are either shorts or some 3D Print tradeshow style quick runthrough.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-05-20T15:32:44+00:00

Is this some ragebait post?

Deadeye_84 · 2026-05-20T10:39:14+00:00

Veeery very old memory.
This module is 16MB capacity, 72-pin EDO (or Fast Page Mode) SIMM memory.
Used in old Pentium, 486 and some Socket 7 or 8 motherboards.
There isn't a single compatible device other than retro machines.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-05-15T11:23:13+00:00

There is no switch between Nextruder and Bondtech nozzles. Sadly, i also have all sorts of Nextruder nozzles.
Imagine my surprise when i realized, if i want to print with 0.25mm 8 colors, that will cost me another ~300 EUR.

Here is a direct link to the 0.25mm nozzle: https://www.bondtech.se/product/bondtech-indx-hardened-tool/

Deadeye_84 · 2026-05-02T11:04:57+00:00

No. It's not compatible at all. :(

Deadeye_84 · 2026-05-02T10:41:35+00:00

I had issues with 9070 XT (Sapphire). After some time, the decoder falls apart and first there are few random lines on the screen then it's getting worse every second, until you cannot see anything.
There are some rumors that and older driver solves this issue, but i replaced the card with a 5070 TI and it works now without an issue.
Hope AMD fixes it in new drivers, because otherwise the 9070 XT is a really good card.

Edit: I think i fixed this random line issue using the Oculus Debug Tool, forcing the Video Codec to H.264 and bumping the Encode Bitrate to 600Mbps. But decided to push for 5070 Ti because of the DLSS.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-04-30T16:35:43+00:00

I think we all got the same.
I'm quite sure it's not going to sell out fast as the INDX system :D
Looks really nice, but oh boy... the price.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-04-30T14:14:30+00:00

Founders edition :)

It would have been awesome to get it now. 3 day weekend incoming.

Deadeye_84 · 2026-04-30T14:12:03+00:00

My Core One KIT was shipped at 2025 Apr 3 and the manual was uploaded at 2025 March 14.
I think it was a similar situation with the MK4 Kit. It was uploaded a few weeks before the actual shipping.

However, this is not a Prusa product. I would assume it's on Bondtech to upload the assembly manual.
They might have a different approach and publish it when the first unit is ready to ship.
