Description
In advanced manufacturing, aerospace, defense, and critical infrastructure, 3D printing has become an indispensable tool for producing custom tooling, rapid-response spare parts, and end-use components. However, this integration introduces significant security vulnerabilities when network-dependent printers are used, creating a critical attack vector for proprietary or classified CAD files.
The Original Prusa XL is the most innovative 3D printer on the market, offering possibilities that no single-nozzle multi-material printer can replicate. With a state-of-the-art five-head tool changer, top print quality, extreme precision, huge print volume, and zero-waste printing, the Original Prusa XL establishes a new category for itself.
Featuring lightning-fast toolhead swapping, unique segmented heatbed, perfect edge-to-edge print precision, a full set of network features, support for an optional enclosure and compatibility with a wide range of technical materials, no project is too big for the Original Prusa XL. Get started quickly with useful additions such as an always-perfect first layer and one-click printing, and explore the possibilities of advanced material combinations for even the most complicated projects.
With the possibility to gradually upgrade the single-tool XL with additional toolheads and an optional enclosure, you can expand your experience as you go.
This edition features a custom-manufactured mainboard. All Wi-Fi connectors and related wireless circuitry have been physically removed, not just disabled via software. This provides a true, verifiable air-gapped solution, eliminating the attack vector of a network-connected device and ensuring full functionality in a 100% offline environment.
Secure Offline Workflow Designed for Classified Data Handling
This bundle is built for a complete offline workflow. It supports an optional certified, encrypted USB drive for secure data transfer that is compatible with the platform. The machine ships with no camera, ensuring no optical data can be captured.
Zero-Waste Printing
The XL was designed for efficient multi-material printing with zero-to-no waste and super-fast operation. A tiny priming tower for nozzle pressure stabilization is usually present, but with properly dried filaments and wipe-to-infill options, the XL can print completely without waste. No wipe towers, no flushed filament around the printer.
Combine Materials
With the individual toolheads, you can easily load various materials and combine them during a single print. You can combine Flex with PETG and use PLA for easily removable supports. If your project requires advanced and expensive materials, such as PCCF, you can use a cheaper material to print supports, reducing total costs.
Fastest Multi-Material Printer
When you want to print with multiple colors or materials, the Original Prusa XL with its lightning-fast toolchanger, Input Shaper, and Pressure Advance technologies delivers results faster than any competition on the market while maintaining the same premium quality as the award-winning MK4.
XL Toolchanger
The toolchanger is the cornerstone of the Original Prusa XL. Keep up to five materials loaded at all times and print multi-material objects faster than ever before. With filaments loaded into the nozzle, there are no lengthy filament change procedures. The toolchanger swaps individual heads in an instant and, thanks to its streamlined mechanical design, offers unparalleled reliability. You can load up to five 2 kg spools on the XL and print a 10 kg object without touching the printer.
Silicone Printing
In partnership with the startup Filament2, we’re bringing a revolutionary plug-and-play toolhead to the Original Prusa XL. This new toolhead features a precision mixing nozzle designed to print with two-part liquid materials, starting with real, heat-resistant silicone.
Keep on Printing with Spool Join
Spool Join automatically switches to another spool when the current one runs out during a print. It’s perfect for finishing partially empty spools or starting massive uninterrupted prints. Load up to five 2 kg spools, enable Spool Join, and let the printer produce a huge 10 kg model without any user intervention.
High-Speed Printing
Speed matters when you need to finish a project on time or produce a large number of prints. The Original Prusa XL uses native Input Shaper and Pressure Advance implementation, bringing a massive speed boost without sacrificing print quality. The XL is easily the fastest multi-material desktop printer on the market, producing beautiful complex prints in record time.
Exceptional Print Quality and Reliability
Speed is nothing without quality. The XL delivers multi-material prints much faster than any other desktop printer on the market while retaining top print quality across the entire print surface. The Nextruder delivers exceptional performance, especially with steep overhangs up to 15°, and easily handles flexible filaments. The superb precision of the printer ensures you can print parts that fit perfectly together.
Large and Precise
Achieve unparalleled precision with the Original Prusa XL. We have tuned the print profiles so that you can design precise parts and work with 0.2 mm accuracy. When you need to add a specific component, like an M3 screw, into your design, you know you can rely on the XL’s print accuracy.
Beautifully Quiet
With Phase Stepping technology, the printer precisely measures its motor response characteristics and automatically adjusts the driving signal to make the XL exceptionally quiet. Despite its speed, the XL can run beside your desk without becoming a distraction, and Stealth Mode makes it even quieter.
Easy to Use
With automatic calibration, one-click printing, and an always-perfect first layer, the XL takes care of the tedious tasks for you. Forget adjusting the nozzle height or worrying about running out of filament mid-print. The XL is simple to use, easy to maintain, and comes with a detailed handbook.
Perfect First Layer Out of the Box
Forget Live Adjust Z or manually adjusted screws. The XL lays down a pristine first layer across the entire bed every single time. The built-in Loadcell sensor precisely measures the nozzle offset regardless of the print surface, delivering unmatched first-layer accuracy.
Wi-Fi and Prusa Connect
The Original Prusa XL offers both wired and wireless connection options, allowing you to control your printer from anywhere using our secure and encrypted Prusa Connect system. Drop a G-code into your browser window and start the print mere seconds after the beginning of the upload. Prusa Connect offers a robust set of options, allowing you to schedule your prints, or monitor them remotely via a webcam.
Color LCD Touch Screen
Pick your favorite way to control the XL! You can either use the physical knob for tactile feedback or the ever-so-popular touchscreen panel. The color LCD provides you with easy-to-navigate menus and simple-to-follow instructions, and with features such as G-code previews, QR codes, Cancel Object functionality and many other useful improvements, using the XL is a joy!
Unique Segmented Heatbed
The XL is equipped with a modular segmented heatbed driven by a separate electronic board to push the print quality and reliability further. The heatbed consists of 16 individually controlled tiles designed to prevent heat deformation which is usually present in printers with a single large heatbed. You can always find the perfect print surface for your material with our proven double-sided print sheets with various surface textures. It can also switch off unused tiles to save energy.
Power-Loss Recovery
Large prints can easily take many hours to finish. However, you don’t need to worry about power outages. The XL features hardware-based power-loss recovery. In case of a power failure, the XL stores the last known extruder location, so when the power is restored, the machine can pick up exactly where it left off – even with network prints!
Actively Updated
We publish new updates for our printers even years after release, bringing new, often major features that transform the way you print. The MK3S+ kept receiving firmware updates for more than six years. The Original Prusa MINI received a major Input Shaper update four years after release, which doubled its print speed.
Designed for Offline Use
The XL has been designed for native offline use, so if you don’t want to use the network services, you don’t have to. The printer can be configured completely without internet access and there are no drawbacks or limitations.
100% Privacy
Prusa does not collect information about your prints or your printer’s surroundings. We believe that no matter whether you’re developing a new-generation space shuttle, or just printing silly things for your friends, no organization should be interested in this information. This is why our printers can be found in top companies, universities and research institutions around the world.
Our printers are primarily designed for completely offline operation with no drawbacks or limitations. You have the option to share data with our tech support and connect your printer to the Prusa Connect remote print management system, but only if you choose to do so.
