@@Prusa3D When is the launch for this product? I deal mostly with Polycarbonate and some nylon, so in advance of my XL I have made an enclosure (hoping it fits properly). But I did make that only as a stop gap until the Prusa enclosure was launched. I really love my MK4 Prusa enclosure compared to the enclosures I used to build my MK3S+ farm with. They are ok (printed solid), but the MK4 enclosure is really well designed and modular. Was hoping for the same kind of results for the XL.
@@Prusa3D what will be the max allowed temperature inside enclosure? Asking because I want to print with engineering materials abs,pc,pa and need at least 50-60degree or more.
@@snajperpl1111 My guess is 60*C will be max interior heat. I run heated enclosures in my MK3S+ farm, but reprinted ALL parts in PC and PC-CF. Problem once you do that isn't the parts any more, it's the micro controller, sheathing on wires, and other components you have to consider upgrading if you push it too much above 60. But just to stay in the 50-60 range, you will want to consider reprinting all of the printer parts in at the very least PETG (or an annealed PETG maybe even with CF; if you can't use PC or PC-CF). I went PC mainly because that is mostly what I print in my farm and I'm very comfy using it. And short of going to Ultem, PEI, PEEK, etc; the temp rating of an annealed PC-CF is higher than you will likely take the enclosure by a good margin
When will the Prusa/1st party camera for Prusa Connect be available. I have seen that you have collaborated with the community on a guide for a "DIY" camera using an ESP32 but I would prefer the drop-in solution directly from Prusa.
With how well my Prusa Mini has served me and how reliable the MK4s and old MK3[whatever]s at the Makerspace of my Uni are, picking up a Prusa XL is on my wishlist for when I'm in the financial position to buy one. The focus on open and locally running firmware and quality linear hardware are what makes these machines interesting to me, I can expect it to last and work whenever I need it. And some of the engineering, especially around the extruder are incredible and based on my experience of having built a DIY Hypercube a few years ago also seem sensible. Loving the sneaky comparison in colour changes, while in single material this might not be as favourable, the points above more than make up for that.
I agree, my mk4 is my second printer, and has worked fantastically (yes there have been some minor issues but that just shows that no machine can be truly perfect, and those issues were only a few times and were easy to fix) I am excited to see what upgrades will come out for the mk4 but if nothing changes my next printer will be an XL
HONEST Review. This makes my #3rd PRUSA Printer purchase in 5 years. After waiting since Nov 21, 2021.. I finally received my August 22, 2024 full factory assembled Prusa XL 5 Tool head printer yesterday. I carefully took my time to properly follow all instructions to assemble and set up my printer to make sure the assembly was executed perfectly. All tests and All calibrations passed and were successfully completed the very 1st attempt. All showed green check marks and heated properly for all 5 heads. All filaments we’re also loaded 1st try to all 5 heads and extruded PLA in all five heads successfully the first attempt. My first test print was also perfect and flawless. I could not have been happier, and I was glad I took the extra time to make sure it was perfect. My second attempt was to print the PLA, PLA, Flex wrist CT scan model that comes on the flash drive with the printer, but my # 2 head suddenly gave an error message on the screen and the printer shut off and rebooted. The same error message appeared after booting that the thermistor or heat resistor wire has a problem and may be damaged? How, This was just a few minutes after all 5 heads had just heated and passed calibration tests and extruded PLA seamlessly. How is this possible? Nothing touched the printer. I stayed up trying to troubleshoot last night for two hours and spent another hour and a half this morning and an hour just now with support agents attempting to figure out how this went from functioning perfect and passing test to failing without the printer ever being touched, to an error? I spoke with 2 Prusa customer support agents who are unable to understand how to help me and make this right. This is very frustrating after 5 hours of careful assembly, I've lost 4-5 more hours trouble shooting the defective #2 Nextruder after it had just heated up and passed calibration. I asked PRUSA for help and support and tried to explain as friendly as possible that I can't waste any more time on this. I sent pictures and asked to please help me and make this right so I don't lose any more of my time on my brand new $5000 printer. Prusa's solution WAS NOT to overnight me 1 fully assembled Nextruder Replacement with a little store credit or to include a couple extra boxes of filament for the troubles I've had and loss of time on a brand new factory assembled unit, but instead they asked me to carry the burden and do all the work to spend another 2-3 hours 60 steps, disassembling the defective Nextruder, along with another perfectly working Nextruder and swap parts and reassemble to narrow down which part component is defective. And if that does not work, they want me to move on the dissembling both Nextruders again and swapping the next parts to check which adds another 2-3 hours. Keep in mind, I paid $500 extra for FULL factory assembled unit so I did not have to deal with issues or worry about each individual part or waste time making it look as clean as they can from the factory. I don't want to have the burden of not routing all wires and tucking lines back as perfect as they did because I am not as good as they are. Plus I'd have to recalibrate everything again afterwards. I'm a loyal Prusa customer for over 5 years, buy their Prusament filamnet regularly and have convinced my friends and others to purchase Prusa. Is their support satisfactory ? I feel this is not right and unacceptable. Am I off here to expect Prusa to replace the defective Nextruder with a new fully assembled unit like I originally paid for? It's business. I have to support my customers this way in my business, or I'll lose customers to my competitors who also offer this type of support. I'll remove this review once PRUSA steps up to the plate and takes ownership to make this right. Does this seem fair to deal with on a brand-new factory assembled unit or should PRUSA do the right thing here?
@@johnsaracco7499 Thanks..I wish, they have been unresponsive still. Unreal! Odd because I am such a Prusa fan and supporter so to get such poor treatment is odd.
A load cell would not yield reliable results with a cantilevered X axis. The Mini is plenty stable with 10mm linear rods on Z, but load cells rely on completely rigid frames. An inductive probe, while not perfect, will still yield a more accurate bed mesh as no actual contact is made between the nozzle and the bed during calibration.
The MINI is awesome as it is. Never had a single leveling issue in 4 years, except when I forgot to swap the sheets on the menu. Besides, a load cell will raise the price and add another firmware branch to maintain. Perhaps as parts gets cheaper, a MINI with loadcell, accelerometer, MMU and xbuddy board would be awesome
Really nice but the price of 4200euro for 5 extruders and no enclosure,compares to other brands with also amazing printers is sky high. And I got so much trouble with my mk3s’s.
Is there lights inside to see the print better? Also filament dryers would be nice to have too so i can leave the filament on the printer for longer without worrying about the lifespan of the filament. Nice that theres an enclosure but i'd wish it'd be transparent so it doesnt obstruct the view. is there a thermistor to view the temperature in the enclosure? Could be handy for printing with high temp materials. Most of all, can you make it cheaper?! Like atleast 1k less Wish i could afford one :c
There are lights! :) They can automatically dim when not interacting with the printer. The XL starts at $1999, you can upgrade it later on with more toolheads.
Funny to see some clips from the old video in the new as well, but extremely well made Prusa! Awesome points! I like that you still have work on improving printers even years after their release. This XL video will already scare others, but the machine itself is really awesome!
@@Mrfoobaer It already is in a limited form. (They have made the first steps for it). Got to your extruder settings in the profile and select different extruders for perimeters/infill/massive infill and select different extrusion widths afterwards. They need to add heuristics for automatizing this but it already is useable for many applications.
It sounds cool in theory, but we are honestly debating if this is really useful in practice. As mentioned in the comments, you can already sort of do this in PrusaSlicer. More research to be done for sure.
@@TheMikolasZuza The first step to implement would be to be able to select one extruder/extrusion width for the outer most N number of perimeters and another one for the rest (like outer perimeters but for N). I know that this would change all sorts of things in arachne, but with that implemented having finer contours on a large objects could lead to dastically improved print times while retaining crisp detail. In addition please extend the extruder selection to select a special extruder for overhangs/bridging, having it hardwired to massive infill is not necessary, but should be a default.
We offer 1, 2 and 5 toolhead configurations. The reason why we go from 2 directly to 5 is that for more than 2 toolheads, you need an additional PSU and an additional electronics. We designed the XL so that the 2 tool version doesn't need those. As a result, there is a non-linear price jump between 2 and 3 tools, with smaller jumps to 4 and 5, hence why we decided to select these 3 main configurations.
Wow, this printer used to be a bit iffy before, but prusa has really stepped up their game. I love prusa. And all their products, but this printer is going to revolutionize the toolchanger style printer, I also like bambu, but the ams is extremely wasteful. And time consuming. This seems like an amazing product now that its had time for troubleshooting, and development since its early release
@@LilApeX1E, active heat chamber, WPA2 lan, nozzle max 320°C, lidar, AMS up to 16 colors, prefilfer G3 and Hepafilter, vibration And extrusion compensation... But why did you write about industrial X1E when is X1C? In autumn they release the next new model, left just big size, The question is this will be AMS or multi head.
when are you adding free IMU upgrades to the toolhead and bed for the MK4 and XL? You can't have input shaping without the ability to profile every individual setup because they are all different. I very much did not like that IS was pushed through a firmware update calibrated against a stock machine that doesn't capture the exact vibrational profile of each setup.
Finally enclosure, but its shame that its "optional" in 2024, when its new standard, especially for such build volume printer. PS. Wondering if it was possible to reduce footprint above tooheads by tilting PTFE tubes 90degree parallel to the build plate (like bambu did with X and P series)
Also, that tool cable-ptfe tube-nylon guide seems inevitable to put at that angle, it has pretty much no fatigue angles. Besides, where do you rest 5 cables horizontally like this? 3dprintbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Bambu-Lab-X1-Carbon-Top-View.jpg
Buenas tardes tengo esta maquina PRUSA XL, y tengo un cabezal que al cargar no tan solo no carga que hace un ruido (CRAAK CAARK CAARK), me podrán comentar donde dirigirme para que yo lo pueda solucionar.
My prusa mk 4 worked without any problems at all, but I cant say the same about my prusa Xl that caused a problems from day 1. 1. faulty fan in one of 5 toolheads 2. faulty toolhead one of 5 thats stopped printing from layer no2. It took 5 weeks for prusa support to send me a spare parts to have it working. As much as I was happy with my MK4 im really disappointed with my XL in terms to support and reliability.
Why have you deleted the first introduction video about the Prusa XL? It is very interesting how the development is progressing! And why are are are all the Prusa printers becoming more black? I was on a factory tour and there was said that the orange panels in the aluminium profiles came because Josef meaned that the XL looks too dark! I think the MK3S+ looks more friendly than the MK4 and XL
We made the original video unlisted, so that search results on RUclips would show this up-to date version. The links to the old version still work. We will always keep in our signature orange, but it's true that on our newer machines, it's typically a mix of (galaxy) black and orange. :)
There’s no way you won’t need live Z offset in an enclosure unless you wait for everything to fully heat soak. Everything else is stellar though lol. If only I can implement a tool changer like this on my VC3.1 500.
The fact that such professional and expensive device comes without an enclosure is just ridiculous!!! You can’t even think about printing such popular materials like ABS, ASA not to mention more exotic stuff.
Hi. The system is called Nextruder, and it has a Planetary gear feeding system. You can read more details on the Prusa XL product page. www.prusa3d.com/en/product/original-prusa-xl-assembled-single-toolhead-3d-printer/
Machine itself looks great. But the slicing software is dragging behind a bit. No mixed nozzle sizes...and the firmware seems to be a bit behind as well. Also no camera for print monitoring at the price its at seems a bit odd. Its for sure an impressive machine but I wonder what bambu is going to come out with this year.
I read somewhere that multi size nozzle printing requires a deep change in the Slic3r core slicing algorithm, but I am sure they'll crack it eventually.
Hey Prusa! Your customer support is a joke. Completely unacceptable that an agent takes 3-4 weeks to get back to you while diagnosing an issue, only to ask you to print a small test-print or try some calibration step you've already done multiple times, then take another 3-4 weeks to respond. I have been emailing back-and-forth for about 6 months now with an agent who has consistently taken 3+ weeks to respond (to which I'm pretty sure he would NEVER respond if I didn't send multiple follow-up emails). Still no resolution for an obvious hardware issue I've had since day 1 on my XL. So much for the amazing customer support you advertise!
Yeah, you can get a webhook notification from Prusa Connect, and you can trigger actions on that in Home Assistant. It’s better to use the API to monitor the hotend cooling fan and only shut off the power once the printer has decided it’s cool enough.
Love my mk3 and mk 4 but $4k is really f'ing steep for an XL when fully assembled Voron 2.4 clones are coming out nearly ready to run from the box for less than 4 digits. Hard to justify especially when only ever using 1 nozzle.
If you mostly print with just 1 nozzle, go for the $1999 XL (1 tool) configuration. You can always upgrade to more tools later on, it's pretty quick and easy. :)
This is great and all, but when is my 5 tool head XL being shipped to me? While I've been waiting I built an enclosure for it (crossing fingers it fits).
The current lead-time for the XL is around 6 weeks and with our greatly increased production, we expect it to keep getting shorter and shorter. You can check your order details in our eshop, but feel free to reach out to our 24/7 support about an update on your order.
@@Prusa3D Thanks, I was looking at my order again, which I placed March 22nd (or 47 days or 6 and 3/4 weeks ago). I don't see any details that are lead time related in my order details, it looks exactly the same as right after I put the order in and funds approved. Is the 6 week lead time only for new orders or existing?
Hi. The 6 weeks leadtimes is for all orders. If it is still not clear in your account, please contact my colleagues in the Support Team to check it for you. help.prusa3d.com/article/customer-support_2287
Two huge reasons I can't get this printer. A. The cost, it's way too expensive in a market filled with options. B. The size this thing is XXL. You need a dedicated bench for this monster. The MK4 needs to get scrapped and the MK4.1 or whatever needs to be blended with the XL to make it more competitive with the X1 and others. The MK4 is sadly way behind the curve today. If the MK4 was more like the XL just smaller I would've bought it already.
RIP to everyone that said "RIP prusa" a year ago Prusa still showing why they're #1 Heck just look at the trustpilot reviews between bambu lab and prusa. Bambu with a 2.8 and prusa with a 4.6
...in price I get it, the waste is less and the speed is faster. But at that price, I can run 4 printers with other systems and while I dislike the waste, it is still cheaper. This machine is amazing, but the price is absolutely insane.
@@benjaminvdvyt Priced the way it is becasue of the cost of the components and EU labor. Prusa doesn't use cheap components sourced from a back alley factory in shenzhen china like creality and bambu lab do. Prusa isn't in the race-to-the-bottom manufacturing like bambu lab.
@LilApe oh please... Prusa absolutely uses Chinese made parts, they buy them from companies outside of China, but those companies still uses China to manufacture them. Don't kid yourself, those printers are mostly made by Chinese people. Cheap components? Define cheap. Printfarms prefer Bambu printers over Prusa. Not only more reliable, but also cheaper to get replacement parts for. Simple fact is, is that Prusa is no longer the champion. They always got beat in the affordable category, but no consumer grade printer could get close to their quality. Bambu beat them at their game, by creating a cheaper and better printer. This printer is top notch, but the price is insane, and thus will still be beat by Bambu.
@@benjaminvdvyt lol I never said prusa didn't use chinese parts. But they use *WAY* less than any other 3d printer manufacture. Look at their MK3. Only 33% of the components in the MK3 are made in china. The other 67% were source from other countries like USA and EU. Im not about to walk you though the parts list of a prusa and where they get their components. Do that yourself. It's all public information. Everyone knows bambu printers are built using lower quality components that are prone to failure. This is common knowledge and well known. They entire reason why the prusa XL was delayed up to like a year was becasue prusa was getting a reliable vender for high quality rails/bearing in place. Meanwhile bambu lab uses the cheapest CF rods that need cleaning every 10hrs or else they get gummed up and cause errors. Bambu lab is getting their ass beat by even creality and qidi tech right now. Bambu lab has lowered the price of their printers like 3 times now in just the last year because they're losing out to the competition. Meanwhile prusa sticks to their price and still sells out printers and sells more today than they did before bambu lab was even a name.
Prusa customer support is awesome! If you have trouble with printing something they’ll print your design themselves to help you fix it! That’s No.1 customer service!!
According to both Prusa's and Bmabulab's website: Prusa XL w/5 tools heads & enclosure (Assembled) = $4,419 & 3-4 weeks lead time. Bambulab X1C Combo (Assembled, enclosed, 4 colors in an enclosed AMS) = $1,449 & NO lead time. -Arguments FOR X1C: 1- It's about $3,000 cheaper. 2- The AMS is air-tight enclosed for absolute moisture control. The Prusa XL filaments are not whatsoever. 3- Much more compact in its design for its bed size. 4- Readily available for shipping. -Arguments FOR Prusa XL: 1- No filament waste 2- Faster color switching 3- Larger print area. About double (x1.98) the X1C in area, and triple (x3.1) in volume size. 4- Open source for the tinkerers -My subjective conclusion: - In a perfect world, where we only care about getting the latest slightly better features, I'd choose the Prusa XL. - In the practical world, with $3,000 in your pocket + printer. You can get a decent second-hand practical and reliable car or lots of other things. Or even get 2 more X1Cs for the same amount of money, that's 3 X1C printers for a 'similarly speced' Prusa XL. - The Prusa XL has set a new standard for multi-color FDM printers. It was a response for Bambulab that came out of the blue to set a new standard for FDM printers with seamless multi-color switching. - Bambulab is always cheaper and no less in quality, and they already hinted they're working on a multi tool-head printer that's coming in the new future. I'll wait for that and save a ton of money and get even more advanced features. P.S. Every person who tried the X1C and P1S would tell you to get the P1S because of how you don't get any noticeable 'loss'. A P1S combo sells for $849, and saves you $3,570.
I know some prusa fanboy will try and defend it, but for the price that little screen with the 3d printed scroll knob where you have to scroll through menu items looks like someone trying to text on an old flip phone
We sometimes hear this feedback, but our users vote overwhelmingly in favor of the physical knob. You can use the touchscreen, but the physical knob is often a faster way to navigate the menus. It also enables visually impaired to use our printers more easily, which is quite important for us.
@@Prusa3D what about the little screen part? If enabling your visually impaired customers is important to you, then I think we can all agree a bigger screen would be a great way to do that - probably much more then a knob.
Would definitely get something like this for multi material/color prince; Bambus are nice for ease of use, butt their color changing leaves 🍃 much to be desired..
love the machine and still hight on my wish list but the price i just can justify to buy becus i can get 4x p1s with 4x multi material tool for that same price thats more volume that can be put out plus the maintinace is more expensive on the xl. so still hope that that price is going to drop one day for a 5 head system full assamble becus i would love to own one.
I must admit I have seen all the videos of the Prusa XL and this just hits the same points. No I am not complaining and am seriously thinking of buying one. However this 3d printer is still like a race car using a fifty year old control system. Things that Prusa really needs to add. 1. an enclosure so that this incredible machine can reach it's full potential. (yes I know one has been in the works but so far nothing on the web site) The enclosure should come standard with the machine. 2. the ability for each printing head to use a different sized nozzle. Yes I mean one .2 head for fine details two .4 for general items one .6 for support one .8 for faster layers. This should also be for stainless steel nozzles and regular nozzles and possibly future types of nozzles. What about carbide. 3 allow this printer to use a version of the mmu3 allowing even more filament choices. Maybe come up with a version that's smaller so it's more compact. This printer already takes up a large space. 4 allow for higher temperatures. Think about using copper filament to print actual circuits as part of the printing process. (yes I know you can already get copper filament)Think of that part that you make thousands of but can't tell if it's starting to fail. A little copper in the print along with an external testing device and suddenly you can tell when the part will fail. Just to be clear I don't ever expect a 3D printer to print micro chips. That's in a whole different realm. A simple copper circuit could mean you can add a light to your printed model. Maybe the next go to robot starts out as a 3D printed model with simple circuitry. 5 standard interior light 6 vent system for those smelly and harmful vapours (ABS anybody) 7 camera as standard This printer has so much potential it's scary. The only problem is will Prusa step up and give it the tools it needs to really shine. If and that's a big If that happens then it will be up to the rest of us to use our minds and come up with ways to use this 3D Printer.
I'm not entirely convinced that omitting "Outstanding Price" from the list of features is altogether fair LOL HArd to justify $4k against a $500 Bambu A1 or Kobra 3 and before you say this is "different"... Is it?
@@paulhuckaby look up the shit that happened with bbl printers. Uncommanded print starts. You read the response article by the CEO, and to a security researcher, the TLDR is "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IM DOING"

Honestly, I wasn't every really impressed by Prusa machines as I've always built my own or heavily modified ones that i thought already had a good base to build off of.. But the recent changes and improvements to the Original XL are impressive, even compared to custom and highly tuned machines. Only wish is a system that swaps out nozzles instead of the whole tool head, just feels like like if it was a car it would be like giving each gear it's own single speed transmission housing. Still IMO far better than other multi-material printers and if i had the spare cash i wouldn't be typing this right now and just enjoying the machine lol
I am so disappointed these are SO expensive. I ended up buying 3 bambu ps1's last month to get me through the next 6 months. Hopefully the price comes down to a bit more of a realistic price range. However, I do understand how advanced the new features and tech are, including the exceptional build quality is. Definitely buying one,. But it's just not in my budget now.
It is a touchscreen. :) You can use whichever you prefer, the knob, or the touchscreen. But mostly people say they prefer the knob, as it's much faster way to navigate the menus. -Mikolas
Wow I got 2 replies, slow day in the office lads? 😅😅 Fair play but surely the only reason people would prefer the dial is if the screen is too small to accommodate what's being displayed on it effectively so they're forever scrolling through it all?

@@peterpucik1380 It has the least 3D printed parts of any Prusa machine and you are working under the dumb assumption that printed parts = bad. It doesn't. This argument is idiotic, probably because of that, we see it parroted out by people that don't seem to know much.

HONEST Review. This makes my #3rd PRUSA Printer purchase in 5 years. After waiting since Nov 21, 2021.. I finally received my August 22, 2024 full factory assembled Prusa XL 5 Tool head printer yesterday. I carefully took my time to properly follow all instructions to assemble and set up my printer to make sure the assembly was executed perfectly. All tests and All calibrations passed and were successfully completed the very 1st attempt. All showed green check marks and heated properly for all 5 heads. All filaments we’re also loaded 1st try to all 5 heads and extruded PLA in all five heads successfully the first attempt. My first test print was also perfect and flawless. I could not have been happier, and I was glad I took the extra time to make sure it was perfect. My second attempt was to print the PLA, PLA, Flex wrist CT scan model that comes on the flash drive with the printer, but my # 2 head suddenly gave an error message on the screen and the printer shut off and rebooted. The same error message appeared after booting that the thermistor or heat resistor wire has a problem and may be damaged? How, This was just a few minutes after all 5 heads had just heated and passed calibration tests and extruded PLA seamlessly. How is this possible? Nothing touched the printer. I stayed up trying to troubleshoot last night for two hours and spent another hour and a half this morning and an hour just now with support agents attempting to figure out how this went from functioning perfect and passing test to failing without the printer ever being touched, to an error? I spoke with 2 Prusa customer support agents who are unable to understand how to help me and make this right. This is very frustrating after 5 hours of careful assembly, I've lost 4-5 more hours trouble shooting the defective #2 Nextruder after it had just heated up and passed calibration. I asked PRUSA for help and support and tried to explain as friendly as possible that I can't waste any more time on this. I sent pictures and asked to please help me and make this right so I don't lose any more of my time on my brand new $5000 printer. Prusa's solution WAS NOT to overnight me 1 fully assembled Nextruder Replacement with a little store credit or to include a couple extra boxes of filament for the troubles I've had and loss of time on a brand new factory assembled unit, but instead they asked me to carry the burden and do all the work to spend another 2-3 hours 60 steps, disassembling the defective Nextruder, along with another perfectly working Nextruder and swap parts and reassemble to narrow down which part component is defective. And if that does not work, they want me to move on the dissembling both Nextruders again and swapping the next parts to check which adds another 2-3 hours. Keep in mind, I paid $500 extra for FULL factory assembled unit so I did not have to deal with issues or worry about each individual part or waste time making it look as clean as they can from the factory. I don't want to have the burden of not routing all wires and tucking lines back as perfect as they did because I am not as good as they are. Plus I'd have to recalibrate everything again afterwards. I'm a loyal Prusa customer for over 5 years, buy their Prusament filamnet regularly and have convinced my friends and others to purchase Prusa. Is their support satisfactory ? I feel this is not right and unacceptable. Am I off here to expect Prusa to replace the defective Nextruder with a new fully assembled unit like I originally paid for? It's business. I have to support my customers this way in my business, or I'll lose customers to my competitors who also offer this type of support. I'll remove this review once PRUSA steps up to the plate and takes ownership to make this right. Does this seem fair to deal with on a brand-new factory assembled unit or should PRUSA do the right thing here?
I think your 100% right. It's brand new they shouldn't even question it. Wish you the best
this same bullshit happens with xTool.
@@johnsaracco7499 Thanks..I wish, they have been unresponsive still. Unreal! Odd because I am such a Prusa fan and supporter so to get such poor treatment is odd.
@@wiseovertime Update time, what is happening with your situation?
They charge a additonal $500 to ship assembled.. guessing your story makes people want to put out the extra cash.. 😬☹
Multiple interchangeable print heads is the future. Good job Prusa.
I have had a mk2S for 5 years now and I still get perfect prints. Hopefully one day get this one.
same for me, just added a chinese magnetic bed and it's been amazing
Agree...When printing TPU it's my #1 over my MK3S and the new XL.
Are you going to upgrade the mini with a load cell as well? That would be crazy awesome!
A load cell would not yield reliable results with a cantilevered X axis. The Mini is plenty stable with 10mm linear rods on Z, but load cells rely on completely rigid frames. An inductive probe, while not perfect, will still yield a more accurate bed mesh as no actual contact is made between the nozzle and the bed during calibration.
The MINI is awesome as it is.
Never had a single leveling issue in 4 years, except when I forgot to swap the sheets on the menu.
Besides, a load cell will raise the price and add another firmware branch to maintain.
Perhaps as parts gets cheaper, a MINI with loadcell, accelerometer, MMU and xbuddy board would be awesome
2:00 how exactly do you hang the extruder from the gantry? I dont think minw does that
You can print the XL nozzle replacement tool to hang it this way - www.printables.com/model/786649-xl-nozzle-replacement-tool
Really nice but the price of 4200euro for 5 extruders and no enclosure,compares to other brands with also amazing printers is sky high. And I got so much trouble with my mk3s’s.
Too bad it cost half of my car.
And it doesn't even come fully enclosed out of the box. So you have to spend more to finish enclosing it or get lung cancer from the plastic fumes.
It costs Twice as mine 😂
Bros broke
It costs more than my car and i got one 😂 and why? I can Print and drive wherever i would like
Podrían enviarla armada a la próxima me costó como 18 hrs armarla😅
i fail to understand why a MK4 with a MMU3 should be significant faster than a ultra fast bed slinger or corexy system with a MMU
what about TPU?
Is there lights inside to see the print better?
Also filament dryers would be nice to have too so i can leave the filament on the printer for longer without worrying about the lifespan of the filament.
Nice that theres an enclosure but i'd wish it'd be transparent so it doesnt obstruct the view.
is there a thermistor to view the temperature in the enclosure? Could be handy for printing with high temp materials.
Most of all, can you make it cheaper?! Like atleast 1k less
Wish i could afford one :c
There are lights! :) They can automatically dim when not interacting with the printer. The XL starts at $1999, you can upgrade it later on with more toolheads.
Funny to see some clips from the old video in the new as well, but extremely well made Prusa!
Awesome points!
I like that you still have work on improving printers even years after their release. This XL video will already scare others, but the machine itself is really awesome!
How extensive can you go with the multi material? Could I theoretically have a robot arm that places parts into the print mid print?
Swappable toolhead really set a new standard for multicolor 3d printing forever. I always thought the wipe tower was a dumb idea.
I’d rather deal with poop than fork over someone’s salary for a tool changer
@@enhidri160 it doesn't even have an enclosure for ABS or other sensitive filaments. an enclosure itself costs as much as a new Bambu A1, just stupid.
Where and when can I buy the smart enclosure ?
if we could mount different nozzles diameters on several tool head for more or less precision, i'd get one.
That's possible, but you need to somehow tell the slicer which parts should print with which tool
@@Mrfoobaerno, the slicer first needs to be able to^^
@@Mrfoobaer It already is in a limited form. (They have made the first steps for it). Got to your extruder settings in the profile and select different extruders for perimeters/infill/massive infill and select different extrusion widths afterwards. They need to add heuristics for automatizing this but it already is useable for many applications.
It sounds cool in theory, but we are honestly debating if this is really useful in practice. As mentioned in the comments, you can already sort of do this in PrusaSlicer. More research to be done for sure.
@@TheMikolasZuza The first step to implement would be to be able to select one extruder/extrusion width for the outer most N number of perimeters and another one for the rest (like outer perimeters but for N). I know that this would change all sorts of things in arachne, but with that implemented having finer contours on a large objects could lead to dastically improved print times while retaining crisp detail.
In addition please extend the extruder selection to select a special extruder for overhangs/bridging, having it hardwired to massive infill is not necessary, but should be a default.
My XL is incredible!
When will be able to use the extruder buttons?
is it somehow possible to update from 2 extruder to 3 ?
We offer 1, 2 and 5 toolhead configurations. The reason why we go from 2 directly to 5 is that for more than 2 toolheads, you need an additional PSU and an additional electronics. We designed the XL so that the 2 tool version doesn't need those. As a result, there is a non-linear price jump between 2 and 3 tools, with smaller jumps to 4 and 5, hence why we decided to select these 3 main configurations.
Wow, this printer used to be a bit iffy before, but prusa has really stepped up their game. I love prusa. And all their products, but this printer is going to revolutionize the toolchanger style printer, I also like bambu, but the ams is extremely wasteful. And time consuming. This seems like an amazing product now that its had time for troubleshooting, and development since its early release
Love the comparison with some "ultra-fast core XY with AMS system" :)
@@lukebrown6913 The single tool Xl is cheaper than a bambu X1E. And the X1E is a proven scam for the price it sells at.
@@lukebrown6913 true, but in the comparison, they are slower horses. These are hard numbers, focused on the multicolor printing space as a whole.
@@lukebrown6913 The XL starts at $1999, not 4K.
@@LilApeX1E, active heat chamber, WPA2 lan, nozzle max 320°C, lidar, AMS up to 16 colors, prefilfer G3 and Hepafilter, vibration And extrusion compensation...
But why did you write about industrial X1E when is X1C? In autumn they release the next new model, left just big size, The question is this will be AMS or multi head.
@@ObiWanPL Who cares. It'll be a junk printer just like the rest of their lineup. Cheap components. No QC. No customer service.
when are you adding free IMU upgrades to the toolhead and bed for the MK4 and XL? You can't have input shaping without the ability to profile every individual setup because they are all different. I very much did not like that IS was pushed through a firmware update calibrated against a stock machine that doesn't capture the exact vibrational profile of each setup.
Is the enclosure available to purchase? I cannot find it.
Prusa should make a smaller corexy printer with the same multi print head system
Finally enclosure, but its shame that its "optional" in 2024, when its new standard, especially for such build volume printer.
PS. Wondering if it was possible to reduce footprint above tooheads by tilting PTFE tubes 90degree parallel to the build plate (like bambu did with X and P series)
For people doing exclusively multicolor prints, an enclosure is definitely optional. Is nice to have the option
Also, that tool cable-ptfe tube-nylon guide seems inevitable to put at that angle, it has pretty much no fatigue angles.
Besides, where do you rest 5 cables horizontally like this?

@@fofopads4450 Even multicolor (PLA) tends to warp in cold environment....
Whats wrong with optional? Not everyone needs an enclosure. It's actually recommended to print PLA open frame so long as you don't have warping issues
i want one so bad... however i cannot justify 4k for the 5 headed...
Consider going for the $1999 single tool first, you can always upgrade to more toolheads later on. :)
@@Prusa3Dor idk, PAY RENT!
@@Prusa3DWill the enclosure get a rework and any issues with the Z coordinate driver Chip fixed? This shouldn’t be happening at this price tag mate
Buenas tardes tengo esta maquina PRUSA XL, y tengo un cabezal que al cargar no tan solo no carga que hace un ruido (CRAAK CAARK CAARK), me podrán comentar donde dirigirme para que yo lo pueda solucionar.
My prusa mk 4 worked without any problems at all, but I cant say the same about my prusa Xl that caused a problems from day 1.
1. faulty fan in one of 5 toolheads
2. faulty toolhead one of 5 thats stopped printing from layer no2.
It took 5 weeks for prusa support to send me a spare parts to have it working. As much as I was happy with my MK4 im really disappointed with my XL in terms to support and reliability.
Why have you deleted the first introduction video about the Prusa XL? It is very interesting how the development is progressing! And why are are are all the Prusa printers becoming more black? I was on a factory tour and there was said that the orange panels in the aluminium profiles came because Josef meaned that the XL looks too dark! I think the MK3S+ looks more friendly than the MK4 and XL
I have got my Mk3 in black 😅
@@iopfarmer Yes, it is a matter of taste but with the MK4 and XL you can’t choose the color anymore but you can print the parts yourself like you want
We made the original video unlisted, so that search results on RUclips would show this up-to date version. The links to the old version still work. We will always keep in our signature orange, but it's true that on our newer machines, it's typically a mix of (galaxy) black and orange. :)
1:38 This song is sick.
Also curious about the smart enclosure.
The song is very cool, it sounds like Justice
Song is called "Landmine Beach Volleyball" and the second song is
"Loney Earth"
In a vacuum, this machine is a beast, but there is a big Panda in the room.
You gotta make it cheaper!
There’s no way you won’t need live Z offset in an enclosure unless you wait for everything to fully heat soak.
Everything else is stellar though lol. If only I can implement a tool changer like this on my VC3.1 500.
The day Voron get here... I need this to print ABS. It will be a long journey I know it but they can do it.
This machine is top notch!! I love it.
Wait, is the touch screen working finally, how do you enable it?
Firmware 6.0.0 introduced it. Upgrade the FW and you get Touch.
Go to Settings -> User interface -> Touch (starting from firmware 6.0.0).
if you are on the latest firmware you can enable it in the settings.
First you have to have firmware 6.0.0 and then there is a toggle switch in the User interface menu that enables touchscreen
I am runnign the latest. Enjoying the phase stepping a bit slower but so so quiet. Thanks for the reply everyone I will enable it.
The fact that such professional and expensive device comes without an enclosure is just ridiculous!!! You can’t even think about printing such popular materials like ABS, ASA not to mention more exotic stuff.
:v
I thought the prusa XL had cycloidal gears on the tool head?
That was abandoned because while it had zero backlash the number of components needed and the weight added didn't make sense.
Hi. The system is called Nextruder, and it has a Planetary gear feeding system.
You can read more details on the Prusa XL product page.
www.prusa3d.com/en/product/original-prusa-xl-assembled-single-toolhead-3d-printer/
If only I could afford this beast!
Machine itself looks great. But the slicing software is dragging behind a bit. No mixed nozzle sizes...and the firmware seems to be a bit behind as well. Also no camera for print monitoring at the price its at seems a bit odd. Its for sure an impressive machine but I wonder what bambu is going to come out with this year.
I read somewhere that multi size nozzle printing requires a deep change in the Slic3r core slicing algorithm, but I am sure they'll crack it eventually.
Hey Prusa! Your customer support is a joke. Completely unacceptable that an agent takes 3-4 weeks to get back to you while diagnosing an issue, only to ask you to print a small test-print or try some calibration step you've already done multiple times, then take another 3-4 weeks to respond. I have been emailing back-and-forth for about 6 months now with an agent who has consistently taken 3+ weeks to respond (to which I'm pretty sure he would NEVER respond if I didn't send multiple follow-up emails). Still no resolution for an obvious hardware issue I've had since day 1 on my XL. So much for the amazing customer support you advertise!
Is it possible to toggle a wifi smartswitch when the print is finished with prusa connect?
Not yet. There's no native app for PrusaConnect, only web-based.
Yeah, you can get a webhook notification from Prusa Connect, and you can trigger actions on that in Home Assistant. It’s better to use the API to monitor the hotend cooling fan and only shut off the power once the printer has decided it’s cool enough.
Wow! That thing looks awesome 👍
Now only if it was affordable 😢
Wait is the enclosure actually available now?
june it seams
@@iopfarmer sounds good! Look forward to printing ABS & ASA on the XL soon!!!
Yes, the print time is unmatched!
As is the price.
Time is money buddy.
la quiero en Colombia, pero no hay representación.😢😢😢😢
Love my mk3 and mk 4 but $4k is really f'ing steep for an XL when fully assembled Voron 2.4 clones are coming out nearly ready to run from the box for less than 4 digits. Hard to justify especially when only ever using 1 nozzle.
If you mostly print with just 1 nozzle, go for the $1999 XL (1 tool) configuration. You can always upgrade to more tools later on, it's pretty quick and easy. :)
@@Prusa3D I overlooked that option I guess because the website defaults to the 4k price. That's a bit better I suppose
This is great and all, but when is my 5 tool head XL being shipped to me?
While I've been waiting I built an enclosure for it (crossing fingers it fits).
The current lead-time for the XL is around 6 weeks and with our greatly increased production, we expect it to keep getting shorter and shorter. You can check your order details in our eshop, but feel free to reach out to our 24/7 support about an update on your order.
@@Prusa3D
Thanks, I was looking at my order again, which I placed March 22nd (or 47 days or 6 and 3/4 weeks ago). I don't see any details that are lead time related in my order details, it looks exactly the same as right after I put the order in and funds approved.
Is the 6 week lead time only for new orders or existing?
I like the smart enclosure at the end it was the only reason keeps me away from the XL 😍
Hi. The 6 weeks leadtimes is for all orders. If it is still not clear in your account, please contact my colleagues in the Support Team to check it for you.

@Prusa3D just saying...
My order was put in 7 weeks ago and I see no status change or indication of shipping. I will reach out to support again
I am definitely buying this... When I win the lottery.
When will we get the real Inputshaping with measured resonances via accelerometer sensor? Not the predefined values.
XL has accelerometers inside the heads
As mentioned by @iopfarmer, the XL has an accelerometer in each toolhead that's used for input shaping calibration.
Every nerd's dream to be with prussa team
Any plans on a prusa XL "mini" that is the size od a MK4, but coreXY and the toolchanger?
Is it the same?
Definetly would if had the cash. Amazing machine.
Two huge reasons I can't get this printer. A. The cost, it's way too expensive in a market filled with options. B. The size this thing is XXL. You need a dedicated bench for this monster.
The MK4 needs to get scrapped and the MK4.1 or whatever needs to be blended with the XL to make it more competitive with the X1 and others. The MK4 is sadly way behind the curve today. If the MK4 was more like the XL just smaller I would've bought it already.
RIP to everyone that said "RIP prusa" a year ago
Prusa still showing why they're #1
Heck just look at the trustpilot reviews between bambu lab and prusa. Bambu with a 2.8 and prusa with a 4.6
...in price
I get it, the waste is less and the speed is faster. But at that price, I can run 4 printers with other systems and while I dislike the waste, it is still cheaper.
This machine is amazing, but the price is absolutely insane.
@@benjaminvdvyt Priced the way it is becasue of the cost of the components and EU labor. Prusa doesn't use cheap components sourced from a back alley factory in shenzhen china like creality and bambu lab do. Prusa isn't in the race-to-the-bottom manufacturing like bambu lab.
@LilApe oh please... Prusa absolutely uses Chinese made parts, they buy them from companies outside of China, but those companies still uses China to manufacture them. Don't kid yourself, those printers are mostly made by Chinese people.
Cheap components? Define cheap. Printfarms prefer Bambu printers over Prusa. Not only more reliable, but also cheaper to get replacement parts for.
Simple fact is, is that Prusa is no longer the champion. They always got beat in the affordable category, but no consumer grade printer could get close to their quality. Bambu beat them at their game, by creating a cheaper and better printer.
This printer is top notch, but the price is insane, and thus will still be beat by Bambu.
@@benjaminvdvyt lol I never said prusa didn't use chinese parts. But they use *WAY* less than any other 3d printer manufacture. Look at their MK3. Only 33% of the components in the MK3 are made in china. The other 67% were source from other countries like USA and EU.
Im not about to walk you though the parts list of a prusa and where they get their components. Do that yourself. It's all public information. Everyone knows bambu printers are built using lower quality components that are prone to failure. This is common knowledge and well known. They entire reason why the prusa XL was delayed up to like a year was becasue prusa was getting a reliable vender for high quality rails/bearing in place. Meanwhile bambu lab uses the cheapest CF rods that need cleaning every 10hrs or else they get gummed up and cause errors.
Bambu lab is getting their ass beat by even creality and qidi tech right now. Bambu lab has lowered the price of their printers like 3 times now in just the last year because they're losing out to the competition. Meanwhile prusa sticks to their price and still sells out printers and sells more today than they did before bambu lab was even a name.
Prusa customer support is awesome! If you have trouble with printing something they’ll print your design themselves to help you fix it! That’s No.1 customer service!!
We need MK5 to be CORE X-Y with 3 nozzle system similar to the XL, and 25 cm cube built volume. Price around 1500 USD.
the mk5 will still be a bedslinger/13 style
Omg I really want one with 5 extruders, but here in Brazil probaly is over than 20k bucks vary sad
So PRUSA and Voron had a baby?
Price?
4 thousand dollars.
Outrageous.
@@chrismay2298 Early adopters always pay a premium until sales volume goes up and economies of scale happen.
1999$ for the base configuration and then you can upgrade to more toolheads whenever you decide. :)
@@Prusa3D thx, and the Enclosure ?
el cambio de cabezotes es descomunal, esta maquina tiene poder xd
According to both Prusa's and Bmabulab's website:
Prusa XL w/5 tools heads & enclosure (Assembled) = $4,419 & 3-4 weeks lead time.
Bambulab X1C Combo (Assembled, enclosed, 4 colors in an enclosed AMS) = $1,449 & NO lead time.
-Arguments FOR X1C:
1- It's about $3,000 cheaper.
2- The AMS is air-tight enclosed for absolute moisture control. The Prusa XL filaments are not whatsoever.
3- Much more compact in its design for its bed size.
4- Readily available for shipping.
-Arguments FOR Prusa XL:
1- No filament waste
2- Faster color switching
3- Larger print area. About double (x1.98) the X1C in area, and triple (x3.1) in volume size.
4- Open source for the tinkerers
-My subjective conclusion:
- In a perfect world, where we only care about getting the latest slightly better features, I'd choose the Prusa XL.
- In the practical world, with $3,000 in your pocket + printer. You can get a decent second-hand practical and reliable car or lots of other things. Or even get 2 more X1Cs for the same amount of money, that's 3 X1C printers for a 'similarly speced' Prusa XL.
- The Prusa XL has set a new standard for multi-color FDM printers. It was a response for Bambulab that came out of the blue to set a new standard for FDM printers with seamless multi-color switching.
- Bambulab is always cheaper and no less in quality, and they already hinted they're working on a multi tool-head printer that's coming in the new future. I'll wait for that and save a ton of money and get even more advanced features.
P.S. Every person who tried the X1C and P1S would tell you to get the P1S because of how you don't get any noticeable 'loss'. A P1S combo sells for $849, and saves you $3,570.
please note that the xl was teased way back in late 2021
I know some prusa fanboy will try and defend it, but for the price that little screen with the 3d printed scroll knob where you have to scroll through menu items looks like someone trying to text on an old flip phone
We sometimes hear this feedback, but our users vote overwhelmingly in favor of the physical knob. You can use the touchscreen, but the physical knob is often a faster way to navigate the menus. It also enables visually impaired to use our printers more easily, which is quite important for us.
@@Prusa3D what about the little screen part? If enabling your visually impaired customers is important to you, then I think we can all agree a bigger screen would be a great way to do that - probably much more then a knob.

Would definitely get something like this for multi material/color prince; Bambus are nice for ease of use, butt their color changing leaves 🍃 much to be desired..
love the machine and still hight on my wish list but the price i just can justify to buy becus i can get 4x p1s with 4x multi material tool for that same price thats more volume that can be put out plus the maintinace is more expensive on the xl.
so still hope that that price is going to drop one day for a 5 head system full assamble becus i would love to own one.
It looks technological. Is a model with a closed case planned?
Literally the last feature they show
Can these tools print at the same time to shorten time to completion of large prints even more?
I've never said this about a Prusa before, but if this ad is to be believed, then, um, *_WOW!!!_* 😲🤯
I must admit I have seen all the videos of the Prusa XL and this just hits the same points. No I am not complaining and am seriously thinking of buying one. However this 3d printer is still like a race car using a fifty year old control system. Things that Prusa really needs to add.
1. an enclosure so that this incredible machine can reach it's full potential. (yes I know one has been in the works but so far nothing on the web site) The enclosure should come standard with the machine.
2. the ability for each printing head to use a different sized nozzle. Yes I mean one .2 head for fine details two .4 for general items one .6 for support one .8 for faster layers. This should also be for stainless steel nozzles and regular nozzles and possibly future types of nozzles. What about carbide.
3 allow this printer to use a version of the mmu3 allowing even more filament choices. Maybe come up with a version that's smaller so it's more compact. This printer already takes up a large space.
4 allow for higher temperatures. Think about using copper filament to print actual circuits as part of the printing process. (yes I know you can already get copper filament)Think of that part that you make thousands of but can't tell if it's starting to fail. A little copper in the print along with an external testing device and suddenly you can tell when the part will fail. Just to be clear I don't ever expect a 3D printer to print micro chips. That's in a whole different realm. A simple copper circuit could mean you can add a light to your printed model. Maybe the next go to robot starts out as a 3D printed model with simple circuitry.
5 standard interior light
6 vent system for those smelly and harmful vapours (ABS anybody)
7 camera as standard
This printer has so much potential it's scary. The only problem is will Prusa step up and give it the tools it needs to really shine. If and that's a big If that happens then it will be up to the rest of us to use our minds and come up with ways to use this 3D Printer.
$4000? LMFAO, no way. You guys are tripping balls
So it’s a different 3-D printer
I'm not entirely convinced that omitting "Outstanding Price" from the list of features is altogether fair LOL
HArd to justify $4k against a $500 Bambu A1 or Kobra 3 and before you say this is "different"... Is it?

Honestly, I wasn't every really impressed by Prusa machines as I've always built my own or heavily modified ones that i thought already had a good base to build off of.. But the recent changes and improvements to the Original XL are impressive, even compared to custom and highly tuned machines. Only wish is a system that swaps out nozzles instead of the whole tool head, just feels like like if it was a car it would be like giving each gear it's own single speed transmission housing. Still IMO far better than other multi-material printers and if i had the spare cash i wouldn't be typing this right now and just enjoying the machine lol
I loved this
great printer, too bad it's 4000 dollars and I can get a P1S for 600 dollars that achieves 95% of what the Prusa XL does
A printer of this type should come with an enclosure by default.
I am so disappointed these are SO expensive.
I ended up buying 3 bambu ps1's last month to get me through the next 6 months.
Hopefully the price comes down to a bit more of a realistic price range. However, I do understand how advanced the new features and tech are, including the exceptional build quality is.
Definitely buying one,. But it's just not in my budget now.
I wish I could afford one. Maybe someday. Probably not.
amazing machine
Still too expensive
£3,400 for 5 tool heads
This printer is a beast... but seriously why do we still have that stupid fuckin dial and not just a touch screen like everything else 😅
It is a touchscreen. :) You can use whichever you prefer, the knob, or the touchscreen. But mostly people say they prefer the knob, as it's much faster way to navigate the menus. -Mikolas
Hi Kieran. The Prusa XL, and the Prusa MK4, have a touch screen 🙂
Wow I got 2 replies, slow day in the office lads? 😅😅 Fair play but surely the only reason people would prefer the dial is if the screen is too small to accommodate what's being displayed on it effectively so they're forever scrolling through it all?

Imagine you canceled your XL order to get a Bambu and are now stuck with a Bambu. So glad i waited it out. The XL is just amazing!
not even close to the same ballpark. you could get 4 Bambu P1S combos for this price, or 3 X1C Combos on sale. awesome yes, but not comparable at all.

This argument is idiotic, probably because of that, we see it parroted out by people that don't seem to know much.
Can count multiple shots fired at Bambu
If a 5 toolhead wouldn't cost me 4200€....
but i can literally buy 4 P1S combos or 3 X1C combos for the same price. not really a fair comparison even a little bit.
@@thegrafxguy1 And all 4 of those bambu's will still be a lesser quality product than one XL. P1S is another cookie cutter coreXY while the XL is revolutionary.
@@LilApe bad take. Prusa needs to improve cost to value ratio
@@ZURAD Nope. Prusa isn't in the race to the bottom manufacturing like bambu lab.
Looks like our money lost again 30% value in a Year😂😂😂
yeah it is cool but way to expensive for a home hobbyist
... seen that ... seen that ... "smart enclosure" ... ENHANCE!
Prusa Mini,utána MK3S volt,most pedig egy Bambulab P1 gépem van,de minden erőssége ellenére ez már túl drága egy gép hobbi szintre!Biztosan tetszene és szeretném!
