Some printers won't print with the door open (the Prusa CORE One has a door sensor), so check yours first. ### Ways to automate it - [Push prints off with the toolhead](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/push-off): On a CoreXY printer, a G-code routine can push the cooled print off the front of the plate before the next job starts. - [Your own ejection G-code](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/custom): Write the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print. - [A robot arm, or anything with an API](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/api): Tell SimplyPrint the plate is clear through the API or a webhook, from a robot arm or your own system. - [Clear it by hand, keep the queue](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/manual-mode): AutoPrint waits for you to mark the plate clear, then starts the next job.

Found multicolour prints nearly waste-free and much faster than the Bambu Lab H2C on the same model, with a quick setup and a fully offline mode. Criticised the high price, the missing flexible-filament profile at launch and that the printer does not know filament colours. > "Prusa’s collaboration with Bondtech to produce the INDX toolchanger has produced a machine other manufacturers can’t wait to copy." - Denise Bertacchi, Tom's Hardware - [Prusa CORE One+ INDX 8-Tool 3D printer review: This beast makes rival multicolor 3D printers feel slow](https://www.techradar.com/pro/prusa-core-one-indx-8-tool-3d-printer-review) (TechRadar, September 13, 2026, 5/5): Ran the assembled 8-tool version for three weeks after a slow first calibration and compared it with the Bambu Lab H2C and Snapmaker U1. Found it clearly faster at multicolour printing than both, with no misprints once settled in. Downsides: recalibration takes time, the workflow is new, and the bed is small. > "The speed is just unmatched by anything a multi-filament printer offers." - Alastair Jennings, TechRadar - [The Prusa Core One INDX has problems](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbQjWMXGZ4k) (Made with Layers, October 11, 2026): Thomas Sanladerer's video on the INDX toolchanger for the CORE One. Per its description, the INDX does a few things really well and many things not at all. - [Prusa Core ONE INDX First Impressions: I Was NOT Expecting This!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLCSyVci5ug) (The Next Layer, July 14, 2026): First impressions after over 160 hours and nearly 15,000 tool changes on the Founders Edition: fast, reliable tool changes, automatic nozzle alignment and far less purge waste, with a list of quality-of-life fixes he wants before the production version. Sponsored by Onshape. ## When to choose the Prusa CORE One+ INDX Choose the INDX when multi-colour or multi-material is the point and you want it fast and nearly waste-free: Tom's Hardware ran the same model nearly nine hours faster than the Bambu Lab H2C with 83.58 g less waste, and TechRadar found it clearly faster than the H2C and the Snapmaker U1. The Snapmaker U1 is the cheaper four-colour toolchanger ($849 in Tom's Hardware), and the H2C has a larger 330 x 320 mm bed. If you only print one material, the standard CORE One+ is the same printer without the toolchanger. ### Pros - Up to eight tools with a nozzle each: Prusa quotes about 12 seconds and 0.013 g of waste per colour change with no purge tower, and Tom's Hardware measured 18 g of waste over 1,646 tool changes. - Tom's Hardware found it nearly nine hours faster than the Bambu Lab H2C on one model, and TechRadar found it clearly faster than the H2C and Snapmaker U1, with no misprints in three weeks once calibrated. - Fully enclosed with a chamber that reaches 55 °C and smart ventilation, so ASA, PC and nylon print without warping and PLA can print with the door closed. - You can mix nozzle sizes (0.25 to 1.0 mm) and materials in one print, for example soft TPU grips on rigid PETG or PLA parts. - Runs fully offline, with open firmware, an EU build and no subscription; Tom's Hardware names reliability, right to repair and data security as Prusa's strengths. - Expected to work with SimplyPrint through the SimplyPrint Client, OctoPrint or Prusa Direct, but we have not confirmed it yet. ### Cons - It is a splurge (Tom's Hardware), and the assembled 8-tool version costs the most; a 4-tool version can be upgraded later. - The bed is smaller than the CORE One+'s because the tool rack takes 15 mm of depth and 2 mm of width, leaving 248 x 205 mm. - The stock nozzles are not designed for long runs of abrasive filament; Prusa rates them for about 10 kg of PETG-CF or 5 kg of PC-CF. - Early-product gaps: no official flexible-filament profile at launch and TPU jammed in Tom's Hardware's test, the printer does not know filament colours, and TechRadar found calibration slow at first. - No camera in the box; a night-vision camera is a separate accessory. ### Who it suits - Schools: Good fit. Enclosed, offline-capable and quick to set up, and Tom's Hardware calls it easy enough for school kids; the price and a newer, more complex toolchanger are the catch. - Hobbyists: Good fit. Reviewers rate its multi-colour speed and waste above the H2C and U1, but it costs well above entry-level multi-colour printers. - Businesses: Great fit. Fast, waste-free multi-material in an enclosed, serviceable, offline-capable machine from a maker known for support and repairability. - Print farms: Good fit. Reviewers report reliable running and Prusa builds on its farm-proven CORE One+, but SimplyPrint support is unconfirmed and no bed-clearing kit is listed. ## Compare the Prusa CORE One+ INDX with similar printers - [Prusa CORE One](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/prusa-core-one): Compatible, 250 x 220 x 270 mm, Also by Prusa · Similar build volume · Also prints ABS & ASA, Nylon (PA), Polycarbonate (PC) - [Prusa CORE One+](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/prusa-core-one-plus): Compatible, 250 x 220 x 270 mm, Also by Prusa · Similar build volume · Also prints ABS & ASA, Nylon (PA), Polycarbonate (PC) - [Bambu Lab P2S Combo](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/bambu-lab-p2s-combo): Verified by SimplyPrint, 256 x 256 x 256 mm, Similar build volume · Also prints ABS & ASA, Nylon (PA), Polycarbonate (PC) - [Creality K1C](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/creality-k1c): Compatible, 220 x 220 x 250 mm, Similar build volume · Also prints ABS & ASA, Nylon (PA), Polycarbonate (PC) - [Compare the Prusa CORE One+ INDX with other printers](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/compare?compare=prusa-core-one-plus-indx#choose) ## Where to buy the Prusa CORE One+ INDX - [Prusa's global store](https://simplyprint.io/buy/8021) (Official store) (Affiliate link) ## About Prusa Prusa Research is a Prague company founded in 2012 by Josef Průša, who came from the open-source RepRap project. It designs and builds the Original Prusa and Prusa CORE printers, makes Prusament filament, develops the PrusaSlicer slicer and runs the Printables model site. Printers are built in Prague and at its US site in Delaware, sold assembled or as kits, and used by hobbyists, schools, businesses and print farms. - Founded: 2012 - Headquarters: Prague, Czech Republic - Ownership: Prusa Research a.s., founded and led by Josef Průša - People: More than 1,200 people (company site, 2026) - Website: https://www.prusa3d.com Openness: Open (4.9 of 5) Prusa is the most open of the large brands: GPL firmware, an open slicer, full local control without an account and spare parts for everything. Hardware design files now come under Prusa's own Open Community License, which allows personal and in-house business use but not selling machines. - Firmware and custom firmware (5 of 5): Firmware for current printers is published on GitHub under GPL-3.0 and updated with every release. Official firmware is signed, but Prusa documents how to flash custom firmware by breaking a seal on the board and says this does not void the warranty. Prusa says firmware and printable parts are shared right away and electronics schematics later. - Local control and integrations (5 of 5): PrusaLink, built into the CORE One, MK4S, MK3.9, MK3.5 and XL, handles monitoring, file uploads and print control on the local network without internet or an account, and printing from USB works offline. Prusa publishes PrusaLink's HTTP API as an OpenAPI specification on GitHub, and its help centre covers OctoPrint setup. Prusa Connect is an optional cloud service for remote access. - Third-party filament, slicers and parts (5 of 5): Printers are open to any filament; PrusaSlicer is GPL-licensed and other slicers work. Instead of a locked RFID system, Prusa created OpenPrintTag, an NFC spool-tag standard that is free for any brand to use and works offline. - Repairs and spare parts (5 of 5): The e-shop sells spare parts for each printer, printable parts are published, and the full CORE One CAD files are released. Prusa's open-source page says its goal is printers that stay moddable and easy to repair for decades, and its licence explicitly allows making spare parts for your own machines. - Data and privacy (4 of 5): No account is needed for local use through PrusaLink or USB. Prusa Connect needs a Prusa account and stores G-codes and telemetry in the cloud. Prusa Research is an EU company and publishes its privacy policy and a Trust Center. - Community and documentation (5 of 5): Large community around Printables and the forum, a detailed knowledge base, and firmware and slicer developed in public on GitHub with open issue trackers. ### Pros - GPL firmware with a documented, warranty-safe way to flash custom firmware. - Full control on the local network through PrusaLink, with no account needed. - Spare parts for every printer, published printable parts and released CAD files. - Kits available for people who want to build and understand their printer. - Made in Prague, with a second factory in Delaware for US buyers. - OpenPrintTag is an open spool-tag standard any brand can use. ### Cons - Hardware files use Prusa's own OCL licence, which bars selling machines built from them; it is not an OSI open-source licence. - Electronics schematics are published later than firmware and printable parts. - Remote access and cloud storage need Prusa Connect and an account. ### Track record - July 2026: Printed Solid, the Delaware company Prusa Research bought in 2022, was renamed Prusa USA. Its Wilmington site builds the MK4S and CORE One+, makes filament and is Prusa's US service centre. - December 2025: Prusa released the full CAD files of the CORE One under its new Open Community License (OCL). OCL allows modifying, sharing mods and in-house commercial use, and grants patent and repair rights, but bars selling machines built from the files without an agreement, so it is not a standard open-source licence. Prusa said it is also filing patents on its designs. - October 2025: Prusa launched OpenPrintTag, a published NFC standard for smart filament spools that any brand can use without licence fees, starting with redesigned Prusament spools. - November 2024: Prusa announced the CORE One, its first fully enclosed CoreXY printer with active chamber temperature control. - March 2023: Josef Průša wrote that open source in 3D printing was under strain from cloners and licence violations. With the MK4, Prusa released firmware sources and models of the plastic parts but held back the electronics plans, planning to publish them later under a new licence.
