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. MINI+ will surprise you. :-) It has a print volume of 18 cm (7”) cubed, removable spring steel sheets, ethernet and optional Wi-Fi and it’s based on our 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 printer 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 STM32

 

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).

    I think the MINI is a great machine, especially for the price. You won't find a more complete package of solid hardware, usable firmware, good documentation and great software under 400 bucks.
    – Thomas Sanladerer: The Next "Big" Thing
  • logo
    This small and sturdy machine uses an excellent slicer, comes with a magnificent metal bed and, overall, gives you excellent print quality. It’s difficult to see how anyone could be disappointed with it.
    – All3DP: Editor's Choice
  • logo
    Right out of the box, this thing is so impressive (...) You can get yourself pretty much what I consider to be a top-of-the-line performance printer for 350 USD.
    – MAKE: First Impressions
  • logo
    When we weigh up the price, performance, reliability and overall product, it is highly recommended for most people to purchase because it does things so well.
    – 3D Printerly Review
  • logo
    The MINI has become my favorite 3D printer of 2020 (...) it's the out-of-the-box experience: once you assemble it, there's very little else to do to it except for just slice the model and print it.
    – Breaks'n'Makes: One Year with the MINI
  • logo
    Prusa have done all they can to pack the features of their best selling 3D printers into a smaller and cheaper package. The Mini may be small but it’s reliable, built to last and delivers excellent print quality just like it’s bigger siblings.
