That only works if you're around to do it :) A lot of these prints I start before I go to sleep so it's done in the morning. I will try to avoid the feature though if I won't be around to watch it in the future.
Yeah it took me a few minutes to understand how that menu works for assigning the spools to the tool head also. The lights on the head will also light up during selection. Either for the tool head number or the color choice depending on what your screen is doing. I do wish that while the tool head waits at idle that the screen would show whats happening, so your not left in the dark waiting.
You're lucky it came off the spool and didn't jam in the PTFE. I did the same thing not long ago, and while it did pull it off the spool, the bend was too harsh to pull into the PTFE so it jammed. The extruder did not detect anything was wrong, and ground a divot into the filament without stopping "printing." I've learned not to trust spool join unless I can access the end of the spool and free it from the spool and clip off the bent up part. Every time I risk it, I end up disappointed.
You can upload via Link or Connect, but don't start the print from there until they add more control over material selection. Upload, and then go to the printer to go through the same steps you just did. Or, is that what you did?
This is the brush mod which I did, it has info about the buckets on it. www.printables.com/model/462473-prusa-xl-series-nozzle-scrubber-brush-update-inclu
As a fellow XL owner, I can say that it is indeed quite loud. There are some very clear and notable residences happening during certain types of movements. I'm going to try to set up a slow motion camera to see if I can catch what is vibrating
I have read somewhere that it can be a good idea to cut the end of the filament clean to avoid problems.
It absolutely is. He was lucky this worked so well.

A big! Thank you! Didn’t know this.

That is a concern I had, I'm going to assume that it really depends on the brand of the filament as to how successful or unsuccessful it would be.

Yes, if I need that feature I just do the Upload and then go to the printer.
Do you have a link for the purge buckets. I saw them in another video but not sure what video it was now lol. My XL will be here this week. 🎉

Is this only on the latest firmware or did the shipped version contain this ability to use both spools?
I believe it was with the 5.x release of the firmware.
Does the second extruder use the temperature that was assigned to its filament?
Since I'm using the same material I don't not for 100%, but I suspect it would.
is it a bit noisy or just the video? i dont hear fan noise at all, but seems like parts resonate very loud when extruder moves
Yes, the movements are very noisy, but since I'm not in the same room as it, it doesn't bother me. There are probably ways to make it quieter.

When the filament "ran out" did it actually use all filament in the bowden tube or is there still some left?
30+ inches left.
@@Arcadenut1 Good to know. Thank you.
Vous avez un warping, non ? dans le coin supérieur droit ?
Yes, I canceled the print shortly after stopping the video. I cleaned the plate with hot water and dish soap and then it printed fine.
