I have enjoyed my Ender 3v2 but my extruder and hot end are acting up and I am ready for a more reliable printer. I like the simplicity of Bambu but it seems to come at the cost of customization. Prusa seems to be more open and extendable, but at the cost of increased complexity. What would you recommend?
The only thing I think the Mk4 is missing is a camera / octoprint support, but I can live without those.
Firmware 5.1 enabled octoprint support.
Not as far as they’d like, but it works. From memory what is missing is some support when Local and Octoprint mix (i.e. when you print locally, octoprint can’t stop the print. Bit annoying but far from a dealbreaker imho)
