These decorated filter caps are now available in single or multicolor with 3 clearances (snug, medium, loose).\r\n\r\nThey fit these masks:\r\n\r\nhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4273395\r\n\r\nhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4282744\r\n\r\nhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4363681\r\n\r\nhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4225667\r\n\r\nFor multicolor printing, use the files ending in Color 1, Color 2.\r\n\r\n# Multicolor Printing\r\n\r\nThis guide to multicolor printing came from this design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3723561\r\n\r\nI learned how to create a true multicolor print without special hardware by modifying a design that used multiple filaments. By multi-color, I mean a single object with different colors on each layer, not just switching filament at certain layers.\r\n\r\nHere's a step-by-step guide:\r\n\r\n## Setting up Prusa Slicer\r\n\r\n- Go to the "Printer Settings" tab in Prusa Slicer.\r\n- In the "General" settings, increase the number of extruders to match the number of colors you want to print.\r\n- For each extruder, add an entry on the settings list on the left ("Extruder1", "Extruder2", etc.).\r\n- Change the "Extruder Color" under "Preview" for each extruder. This gives a better preview of the result and makes life easier.\r\n- Add "M600" to the "Tool change G-code" settings in "Custom G-code".\r\n\r\n## Setting up your print\r\n\r\n- The versions of the case intended for multicolor printing have each color in a separate STL file.\r\n- On the "Plater" tab, click "Add" and select all STL files at once.\r\n- When multiple extruders are configured, Prusa Slicer will ask if you want to consider them as single object with multiple parts. Answer yes.\r\n- Check the preview to ensure colors are correct. If not, assign another extruder in the STL file list on the right.\r\n- Hit "Slice now" and transfer G-code to your printer.\r\n\r\n## Printing\r\n\r\nWhen your printer reaches the M600 command, it will pause outside the print area and prompt you to switch filament. Your printer must support the M600 G-code command.\r\n\r\n## Some Tips\r\n\r\n- The order of filament changes is not consistent. To solve this, add "M600 ; Switch to Extruder [next_extruder]" to the custom Tool change G-code setting. This allows you to track which filament needs to be inserted next.\r\n- When using the Original Prusa i3 MK3, it will extrude some filament after confirming completion of the filament change. To avoid mess, don't remove the extruded filament until ready to pull it away when the print head starts moving.\r\nThis process is actually pretty straightforward once you understand how it works.
