Original Prusa MK4 3D Printer kit

The MK4 is the latest edition of our flagship 3D printing workhorse. It combines the reliability and safety features of its predecessors with high-speed performance enabled by Input Shaper support. It brings plenty of new features like a perfect smooth first layer thanks to the Loadcell sensor (no manual adjustments needed).

The next-gen extruder (Nextruder) and 32-bit connected platform provide many quality-of-life improvements like remote printing, quick-swap nozzles, and customizable UI with a one-click printing option, and much more.

The package includes a Smooth PEI print sheet.

By purchasing the MK4 Kit, you also gain a 5% discount on selected filaments.

Alternatively, you can buy an assembled printer with complete warranty.

Original Prusa MK4 is built around our new 32-bit connected architecture and the next-generation extruder (Nextruder). It lays down a perfect first layer every time without Live Adjust Z and it has support for high-speed printing with Input Shaper and Pressure Advance. We also improved the safety features even further. Plus, there are a ton of useful things, such as quick-swap nozzles, built-in support for remote printing and webcams, and many more. And it’s still beautifully quiet.

Main Features

High-speed printing with ease

High-speed printing with ease

Thanks to our own implementation of Input Shaper and Pressure Advance technologies in the MK4’s firmware, the printer can eliminate resonance in prints and predict the flow of the filament. The result is a decrease in print time by up to 70% compared to MK3. What's more, the printer is very quiet even at these speeds - check out the sub-20-minute Benchy video

Perfect First Layer on a First Try

Perfect First Layer Out of the Box

Thanks to the precise Loadcell sensor, MK4 can lay down a perfectly smooth and consistent first layer automatically without any user input. At the beginning of a print, the printer taps the sheet with the nozzle in a grid-like pattern to measure the distance and then calculates the correct offsets. The result is a perfect first layer on every surface, without manual adjustments.

The Nextruder with Breakout Board

The Nextruder with Breakout Board

Extruder is the heart of every 3D printer. And this is a special one. On most 3D printers today, replacing extruder components is a rather complicated process. With the new connector break-out board inside the Nextruder, all of the parts, such as fans, heaters, thermistors, etc., are connected directly there. If you need to swap anything, it takes just a minute.

32-bit xBuddy Mainboard

32-bit xBuddy Mainboard

Our new xBuddy board is a 32-bit STM32-powered mainboard with many great features. It has several unique hardware-based safety protection systems, communicates with four thermistors, has all important ports (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, works with USB-A flash drives) and more. The entire board was designed, manufactured, and tested in-house.

Exceptional Print quality

Exceptional Print quality

The MK4 comes with redesigned, more robust plastic parts and new precise 0.9° stepper motors (0.9° / step; low inductance) on the X and Y axes that help eliminate Vertical Fine Artifacts on prints. Plus, there are thicker 10mm rods on the Z-axis. The result is, that prints look better than ever and even printing with “problematic” filaments like Flex is a breeze.

Color LCD screen and simple UI

Color LCD screen and simple UI

MK4’s display supports G-code thumbnails, QR codes and other elements that make using the printer so much easier. We also redesigned many of the existing menus and added a customizable footer panel. Directly under the LCD, there is an RGB status bar to signalize the current status of the printer. Next to the LCD, there’s a USB-A port for standard USB flash drives.

Quick-Swap Nozzles

Quick-Swap Nozzles

Thanks to two quick-release thumbscrews on the side of the body of Nextruder, which holds the nozzle in place, you can swap nozzles easier than ever. The MK4 is using special nozzles with an all-metal filament guide (no PTFE tubes anywhere), which improves the overall reliability of the printer. Simple Nextruder-to-V6 adapter is available.

Support for a wide range of Materials

The MK4 is fully compatible with a wide range of various types of materials. No matter whether you want to print something for fun from PLA and flexible materials, or you need to produce durable prototypes from PETG, ASA, Polycarbonate and Polypropylene - the MK4 can handle them without any problem.

Prusa Connect and Connectivity Options

Prusa Connect and Connectivity Options

MK4 is, along our other 3D printers, fully supported by Prusa Connect, which allows you to control the printer via internet. You can drag-and-drop G-Codes into the browser window to upload print files first into the cloud (each user gets 1 GB for free) and then transfer it into the printer’s USB storage and start the print remotely. All communication is encrypted.

Add-ons

Ready for multi-color printing with MMU3

MK4 can be enhanced by an optional add-on that allows your single-extruder printer to print with up to 5 colors (materials) at the same time. The MMU3 contains five filament insertion points. Load the five colors of your choice, slice the object with MMU3 profile in PrusaSlicer and start the print. The system automatically selects filament using the selector, loads it into the Nextruder and the MK4 starts printing. When it’s time to change the color or material, it also happens automatically.

The MMU3 is the latest edition of Multi Material printing device by Prusa Research. The firmware has been rewritten completely, we have redesigned the plastic parts, added more robust metal parts, improved the electronics and updated the filament buffer. All of these changes have improved the reliability and user comfort to levels where MMU has never been before.

Enclosure

Enclosure available

MK4 is *fully compatible with the Original Prusa Enclosure. If you want to print more advanced technical materials on your MK4, you’ll find the Enclosure really handy. It stabilizes the printer environment, eliminates drafts and odors, and makes the printer even more silent.

The Enclosure is available with a range of useful add-ons, such as a filtration system, locking mechanism and more - check out the announcement article and the Enclosure section on our e-shop.
