PrusaLink setup

This guide covers connecting your Prusa Core One / One+ to PrusaSlicer over the network via PrusaLink, so you can send prints directly from PrusaSlicer or export G-code to fine-tune in the FarmLoop app.

  1. Download and install PrusaSlicer.
  2. Connect the printer to your network from its touchscreen, and write down the IP address and password shown there.
  3. In PrusaSlicer, make sure the Prusa Core One printer profile is selected.

  1. Add the printer as a Physical Printer:
    1. Go to the Printers tab and click the gear icon next to the printer preset dropdown, then choose Add physical printer.

  1. Slice your part in PrusaSlicer. Ideally, position your part at the front left of the bed.
  2. Send the print:
    • Send directly: use the print/export button at the bottom right of the sliced-part panel.

  • Or export and fine-tune in the FarmLoop app for full automation: go to app.3d-farmers.com/user/farmloop. Make sure to deselect Supports binary G-code under Printer Settings > General > Firmware first.

    After fine-tuning, drag the resulting .gcode file into PrusaLink’s upload field. Optionally check Start print after transfer to begin immediately.
