We currently have two Original Prusa Minis for basic printing with PLA at the lab. They are called Lusa and Rusa.

  • Please bring your own filament and only use plain PLA. Additives like wood or carbon wear out the nozzles extremely quickly.
  • Refer to the Whiteboard inside of the Laser & 3D Lounge for currently attached nozzle sizes. By default, there should be one printer with a 0.4 nozzle and one with a 0.6 nozzle.


Details

  • Build volume 18 x 18 x 18 cm | 7 x 7 x 7 in
  • Nozzles 0.4mm or 0.6mm for 1.75mm Filament.
  • Removable magnetic spring steel sheet with PEI surface
  • Printable via USB Stick
  • Material: plain PLA


Usage

If you haven't used the printer, register for the monthly 3D printing intro course or ask in the 3d_printing channel on Slack beforehand.

  • Slice your .stl in PrusaSlicer
  • Use the official presets for the Original Prusa MINI. Make sure to adjust the nozzle diameter (see above) And the Filament of choice
  • Get the USB stick that's in the printer, export to the USB via the button on the bottom right in PrusaSlicer, and put it back into the printer
  • Verify that you're about to start the right print - the display shows an image preview of your model
  • You can monitor your print via PrusaControl
