6.2 Updating the firmware
The printer is shipped with latest firmware available at the time of manufacturing. However,
we recommend to check
www.prusa3d.com/drivers
for the latest firmware version to
ensure optimal printing experience.
To flash firmware downloaded from our website, please follow these steps:
1.
Download the correct firmware file from
www.prusa3d.com/drivers
(ZIP archive) and
unpack it
2.
Place the .BBF file on a FAT32-formatted USB drive - you can use the one bundled with your
MINI
3.
Insert the USB drive into the printer’s USB port
4.
Restart the device using the restart button next to the Knob
5.
The update process should start automatically
6.
Wait until the process is complete
6.3 Preparing flexible steel sheets
Please follow the instructions for the sheet of your choice (see below) and prepare it for the first print.
The heatbed has embedded high curie temperature magnets inside, which hold removable spring
steel sheets in place. There are
two pins at the end of the heatbed that will align perfectly with
cut out edges of the spring steel sheets.
These pins aren’t meant to fit into the two holes on the
other side of sheet! Make sure the bed is clean and there isn’t any debris on it before you put on the
steel sheet.
Never print directly on the heatbed.
Unpack the IPA-infused cleaning wipe and clean the steel sheet before you start.
