PrusaSlicer

From Asmbly Wiki

We recommend PrusaSlicer as a slicing software to use with the Prusa filament printers at ASMBLY.

Setup

Download PrusaSlicer, then open the application. This will open the Configuration Assistant. If you later need to download more configurations, you can open the Configuration Assistant at any time by clicking Configuration->Configuration Assistant...

For use with the printers at ASMBLY, it's only necessary to make choices from the following two screens:

Prusa FFF

You will need to select profiles for the two types of Prusa FFF printers we have as ASMBLY, the Original Prusa i3 MK3S+ and the Original Prusa XL - 5T Input Shaper. Both types of printers have 0.4mm nozzles

A screenshot of the MK3 Family section on the Prusa FFF Step in PrusaSlicer Configuration Assistant. There is a box around Original Prusa i3 MK3S & MK3S+ and an arrow pointing to the check box for 0.4mm nozzle indicating that you should check this box
Scroll to find MK3 Family. Select the Original Prusa i3 MK3S & MK3S+ with 0.4 mm nozzle
The XL Multi-Tool section on the Prusa FFF Step in PrusaSlicer Configuration Assistant. There is a box around Original Prusa XL - 5T Input Shaper and an arrow pointing to the check box for 0.4mm nozzle indicating that you should check this box.
Scroll to find XL Multi-Tool Family. Select the Original Prusa XL - 5T Input Shaper with 0.4 mm nozzle

Filaments

If you know the brand of your filament, it can be helpful to download the configuration for that specific filament. If you don't, you should do well with generic filament profiles. We recommend you start with Generic PLA and Generic PETG. You can find these profiles by selecting (All) category under Printer:, (All) category under Type:, and Generic under Vendor

A screenshot of the Filament Profiles Selection screen in the PrusaSlicer Configuration Assistant. It has arrows to indicate that you should select the "(All)" category under "Printer:", the "(All)" category under "Type:", the "Generic" category under "Vendor" and then check the boxes next to "Generic PETG" and "Generic PLA"
Find Generic filament Profiles under (All)->(All)->Generic. Select Generic PLA and Generic PETG
