Original Prusa MINI+ Smart and compact 3D printing workhorse with all the bells and whistles you’re accustomed to when you buy an Original Prusa 3D printer. It has a print volume of 18 cm (7”) cubed, removable spring steel sheets, ethernet and optional Wi-Fi and it’s based on Prusa Research's brand new custom-made 32-bit Buddy mainboard with silent 2209 Trinamic drivers.


Main Features

 

Build Volume

Featuring a 7"×7"×7" (18×18×18 cm) build volume, the MINI+ is a fully-equipped 3D printer. Featuring sensorless homing, automatic Mesh Bed Calibration, replaceable nozzles, network connectivity, USB printing and a full-color LCD screen, the MINI+ is a big printer in a small body.


Color LCD Screen

Configure your 3D printer with ease and see previews of sliced models before you start printing! Thanks to the 2.8’’, 240×320 LCD screen with 65.000 colors, every option is just a few clicks away.


Flexible Print Sheets

Removing a print has never been easier! With the magnetic heatbed and removable spring steel sheets, you can remove a printed object merely by bending the steel sheet. The surface is easy to maintain and comes in two variants: smooth and textured.


SuperPinda Probe

SuperPINDA probe features a hiqh-quality sensor for a fully-automatic Mesh Bed Leveling process. Before every print, the MK3S+ probes the bed in several places and creates a virtual heightmap of the print area. This process ensures that the first layer will always be spot on!

Network Connectivity

The MINI+ comes standard with an ethernet port and optional future ESP Wi-Fi module upgrade which will enable sending files to the printer wirelessly, or download OTA firmware updates. Thanks to future updates you will be able to manage a whole print farm easily.

Safety Features

Every part we use is thoroughly tested in-house. This is why our 3D printers are highly reliable and safe to use. The MINI+ is equipped with three thermistors and comes with a high-quality power supply (Delta or Mean Well - depending on region) for safe and reliable information.

One-click Printing

Once you insert a USB drive with a sliced object, a new menu with an object preview window appears. Confirm the selection with a single click of the control wheel and watch the printer do the rest for you.

32bit Controller SMT32

More power, more options. Our brand new custom-made 32-bit “Buddy” motherboard with Trinamic 2209 drivers brings more bang for your bucks. It’s capable of nearly everything OctoPrint can do, including farm management software (future firmware update).

Great Little Printers

So far, the experience has been fine. It took the tech team a few hours to set up all three. There is a small learning curve and I'm still getting them going. Seems much more accessible than other printers we've had in the past so that's a definite plus already.

Prusa in schools

Our students built the last set of printers we purchased to complete our lab. These are very easy to assemble and the calibration steps are very clear and easy as well.

amazing!

So far, I've only printed models that we have found on websites, but this printer is so easy to use and has been fantastic compared to our old one. The students love watching it print and are excited about being able to make their own models.

Excellent! So glad I paid the extra $100 to Printed Solid

The Prusa Mini is performing beyond expectations! The photos in the manual were too small and low res to be helpful for calibration, so I was very happy I paid extra to buy directly from the US distributor Printed Solid. Dustin answered questions clearly and accurately in minutes that the online rep in Europe couldn’t solve in hours of back and forth with email chat. In fairness, the problems were related to my inexperience with FDM and inability to interpret the tiny low res photos, but it is MUCH more efficient to speak with someone on the phone vs email chat, esp someone as knowlegeable as Dustin who has an identical machine right in front of him. The print head had to be set a little lower than the online sample range implied, but once that was solved the machine has worked impeccably on every print! I’m very pleased, and look forward to years of rapid prototyping! A happy discovery is just how accurate these machines are. I have used HP MJF printers for years, and like that method very much (those machines cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and produce a fused nylon print with uniform x, y, and z axis tensile strength), but the little Prusa produces slightly more dimensionally accurate prints, as far as I can see!
