Features

Zero-waste printing

Getting a 3D printer is just the beginning: you'll need more and more filaments, and the XL is here to keep operating costs down by eliminating excessive waste! Every single-extruder printer on the market needs to purge the remaining filament from the nozzle during every color/material change. With many printers on the market, filament waste can often be up to four times greater than the weight of the printed 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 without waste! No wipe towers, no flushed filament around the printer!

Combine materials

With the individual tool heads, you can easily load different materials and combine them seamlessly 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 overall costs.

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 swaps individual heads in an instant and, thanks to the streamlined mechanical design, offers exceptional reliability. You can load up to five 2kg spools onto the XL and print a 10kg 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 finishing 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.

Exceptional print quality and reliability

Speed is nothing without quality! The XL delivers multi-material prints much faster than any other desktop printer on the market while maintaining top print quality across the entire print surface. The Nextruder provides 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, which brings 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 unparalleled precision with the original Prusa XL! We have tuned the print profiles so you can design precise parts and work with 0.2 mm 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 silent

With Phase Stepping technology onboard, 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 let it run next to your desk and continue working without being distracted by noise. And you can activate Stealth Mode to make the XL even more silent! Watch the Phase Stepping video explanation!

Easy to use

With automatic calibration, one-click printing, and an always perfect first layer, 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 an absolutely pristine first layer across the entire bed every single time. It doesn't matter what type of print surface you're using, the XL's Loadcell sensor always accurately measures the offset without being thrown off by reflective or textured surfaces. The sensor does not rely on visual data and offers unparalleled precision on all kinds of print sheets out there!

Handle any type of filament

Whether your project calls for PLA and PETG, or even ASA and carbon-filled filaments, the XL can handle them with ease - even flexible ones! 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 space, 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 remotely monitor them 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-so-popular touchscreen panel. The color LCD provides you with easy-to-navigate menus and simple-to-follow instructions, and with features like G-code previews, QR codes, Cancel Object functionality, and many other useful enhancements, using the XL is a pleasure!

Unique segmented hotbed

The XL is equipped with a modular segmented heatbed driven by a separate electronic board to push print quality and reliability even further. The hotbed consists of 16 individually controlled tiles designed to prevent heat deformation, which is usually present in printers with a single large heated bed. 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 many hours to complete. However, you don't have to worry about power outages. The XL has hardware-based power loss recovery. In case of a power failure, the XL saves the last known extruder position, so when power is restored, the machine can continue exactly where it left off - even with network prints!

Actively updated

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

Designed for offline use

The XL is designed for built-in offline use, so if you don't want to use the network services, you don't have to. The printer can be configured completely without internet access, and there are no disadvantages or limitations.

100% Privacy

We do not collect information about your prints or your printer's environment. We believe that whether you are developing a new generation of spacecraft 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 completely offline operation without disadvantages 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 connected to the internet.

Add-ons

Additional print heads

You can gradually upgrade your Original Prusa XL with additional tool heads. Start with a single-tool machine and then expand it 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 enclosure

If you want to print more advanced engineering materials on your XL, the official enclosure is the perfect fit. It stabilizes the printer environment, removes 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 (like PCCF) do not require an enclosure. But when you need to print with more advanced materials, such as ASA, ABS, PC, and similar, 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.
