Features

Zero-waste printing

Getting a 3D printer is just the beginning: you'll need more and more filament, and XL is here to keep your operating costs down by eliminating excessive waste! Every single extruder printer on the market has to clean the remaining filament from the nozzle during each color/material change. With many printers on the market, filament waste can often be up to four times the weight of the print object itself.

The XL is designed for efficient multi-material printing with zero-to-no waste and super-fast operation. A small priming tower for nozzle pressure stabilization is usually present, but with properly dried filaments and wipe-to-infill options, the XL can print completely waste-free! No wiping towers, no rinsed filament around the printer!

Combine materials

With the individual tool heads, you can easily load different materials and easily combine them during a single print. You can combine Flex with PETG and use PLA for easily removable supports. If your project requires advanced and expensive materials, such as PCCF, you can use a cheaper material to print supports, reducing the overall cost.

Fastest multi-material printer

When you want to print with multiple colors or materials, the Original Prusa XL with its lightning-fast tool changer, Input Shaper and Pressure Advance technologies delivers results faster than any competitor on the market and with the same premium quality as the award-winning MK4.

XL Tool Changer

The tool changer is the cornerstone of the Original Prusa XL. Keep up to five materials loaded at all times and print multi-material objects faster than ever before. With filaments inserted into the nozzle, there are no lengthy filament replacement procedures. The tool changer changes individual heads in an instant and, thanks to its streamlined mechanical design, provides unparalleled reliability. You can load up to five 2 kg spools onto the XL and print a 10 kg object without touching the printer.

Continue printing with Spool Join

Spool Join is a feature that automatically switches to another spool when the current one runs out during a print. It's perfect for both completing partially empty spools, but you can also start massive uninterrupted prints: load up to five 2kg spools, activate Spool Join and let the printer produce a huge 10kg model without a single user intervention.

Outstanding print quality and reliability

Speed ​​is nothing without quality! The XL delivers multi-material printing much faster than any other desktop printer on the market, while maintaining top print quality across the entire print surface. Nextruder delivers exceptionally good performance, especially with extremely steep overhangs up to 15°, and easily handles even flexible filaments. The printer's exceptional precision ensures that you can print parts that fit together perfectly.

High-speed printing

Speed ​​matters when you need to finish a project on time or produce a large number of prints. The original Prusa XL uses a built-in Input Shaper and Pressure Advance implementation, bringing a massive speed boost without sacrificing print quality. The XL is easily the fastest multi-material desktop printer on the market, producing beautiful complex prints in record time.

Large and precise

Achieve unmatched precision with the original Prusa XL! We've tuned the print profiles so you can design precise parts and work with 0.2mm accuracy. When you need to add a specific component, such as an M3 screw, to your design, you know you can rely on the XL's print accuracy.

Beautifully quiet

With Phase Stepping technology on board, the printer accurately measures its motor response characteristics and automatically adjusts the drive signal to make the XL silent. In other words: Despite its speed, the XL is beautifully quiet, so you can leave it running next to your desk and continue working without being distracted by noise. And you can activate Stealth Mode to make the XL even quieter! Watch the Phase Stepping video explanation!

Easy to use

With automatic calibration, one-click printing and a perfect first layer every time, the XL takes care of all the tedious tasks for you. Forget about adjusting the distance between the nozzle and the print bed, and don't worry about running out of material mid-print. The XL is simple to use, easy to maintain and comes with a detailed manual that will guide you through all aspects of multi-material printing.

Perfect first layer out of the box

Forget Live Adjust Z or manually adjusted screws. The XL lays down an absolutely pristine first layer across the entire bed every time. No matter what type of print surface you use, the XL's Loadcell sensor always measures displacement accurately without being thrown off by reflective or textured surfaces. The sensor does not rely on visual data and offers unmatched precision on every type of print sheet out there!

Handle any type of filament

Whether your project requires PLA and PETG, or even ASA and carbon-filled filaments, the XL can handle them with ease - even flexible! With its direct drive Nextruder, printing flexible materials is easier than ever before, and you can create amazing flexible projects without breaking a sweat (or your printer). Most materials don't require an enclosed print room, but for those that do, there's a dedicated original Prusa enclosure.

Wi-Fi and Prusa Connect

The original Prusa XL offers both wired and wireless connectivity options, allowing you to control your printer from anywhere using our secure and encrypted Prusa Connect system. Drop a G-code into your browser window and start printing seconds after the upload begins. Prusa Connect offers a robust set of options, allowing you to schedule your prints or monitor them remotely via a webcam.

Color LCD touchscreen

Choose your preferred way to control the XL! You can either use the physical button for tactile feedback or the ever-popular touchscreen panel. The color LCD gives you easy-to-navigate menus and simple-to-follow instructions, and with features like G-code previews, QR codes, Undo Object functionality, and many other useful enhancements, the XL is a joy to use!

Unique segmented hotbed

The XL features a modular segmented heatbed driven by a separate electronic board to further push print quality and reliability. The hotbed consists of 16 individually controlled tiles designed to prevent heat deformation, which is usually present in printers with a single large heatbed. You can always find the perfect print surface for your material with our proven double-sided print sheets with different surface textures. It can also turn off unused tiles to save energy.

Power loss recovery

Large prints can easily take hours to complete. However, you don't have to worry about power outages. The XL features hardware-based power loss recovery. In the event of a power failure, the XL stores the last known extruder position so that when power is restored, the machine can continue exactly where it left off - even with network printing!

Actively updated

We release new updates to our printers even years after release, bringing new, often important features that change the way you print. The MK3S+ continued to receive firmware updates for over six years. The original Prusa MINI received a major Input Shaper update four years after release, doubling its print speed.

Designed for offline use

The XL is designed for native offline use, so if you don't want to use the network services, you don't have to. The printer can be set up completely without internet access, and there are no drawbacks or limitations.

100% privacy

We don't collect information about your prints or your printer's surroundings. We believe that whether you're developing a next-generation space shuttle or just printing silly things for your friends, no organization should be interested in this information. That's why our printers can be found in top companies, universities, and research institutions around the world.

Our printers are primarily designed for complete offline operation without any drawbacks or limitations. You have the option to share data with our technical support and connect your printer to the Prusa Connect remote print management system, but only if you choose to do so.

Our code is open source, so you can always check that we are not cheating or stealing your files, even when you are connected to the internet.

Additions

Additional printheads

You can gradually upgrade your Original Prusa XL with additional tool heads. Start with a single tool machine and then expand to 2 or 5 tool heads when the time is right. Additional tool heads give you more options with different materials, allowing you to print even more complex models.

XL cabinet

If you want to print more advanced technical materials on your XL, the official enclosure is the perfect fit. It stabilizes the printer environment, eliminates drafts and odors, and makes the printer even quieter.

An enclosure is not necessary for every type of filament. Many common materials, such as PLA, PETG and even some advanced ones (like PCCF) do not require an enclosure. However, once you start printing with more advanced materials, such as ASA, ABS, PC and the like, the enclosure is the best option to achieve increased temperatures in a stabilized environment, plus the high-performance filtration system takes care of ultra-fine particles.
