Notes

Prusa MK4 + Prusament PLA: The gold standard pairing. PrusaSlicer has a built-in Prusament PLA profile — use it as-is. 215°C nozzle, 60°C bed, input shaping enabled for up to 200mm/s on infill.

Troubleshooting

Stringing: Drop to 210°C. Elephant foot: Enable compensation in PrusaSlicer (0.2mm). First layer: MK4's strain gauge leveling + Prusament tight tolerances = near-perfect first layers.
