XL Single-toolhead

Prusa Research XL-1T 2025
Fused filament fabrication (FFF/FDM) F2 · Intermediate

A maker buys the single-toolhead XL when they need a 360 mm³ print volume and value the option to later upgrade to up to five toolheads with zero-waste tool changing. Compared to a roughly €2,000 printer with a similar build area, such as the Creality K2 Plus (350 mm³, around €1,800), the XL offers Prusa's open source firmware with Input Shaper, a segmented heated bed, and automatic first-layer calibration, but requires extra investment for multi-material use. Those printing single-material objects who don't need the full volume will find the Prusa MK4S (€999) or Bambu Lab P1S (€749) cheaper and equally precise. The typical user produces bulky technical parts (jigs, enclosures, prototypes) and plans to later use the tool changer for soluble supports or multi-color prints without a purge tower, offsetting the initial cost through a repairable ecosystem and EU-based support.

Filaments for this printer

Fibre-filled spools (carbon, glass) are not in this list: they wear out brass nozzles. You will find them on the material page.

Ecosystem

Software

The printer runs Marlin firmware customized by Prusa, heavily influenced by Klipper and natively compatible with PrusaSlicer for tool-change management, Input Shaper, and Pressure Advance. Other slicers such as Cura or Simplify3D produce standard G-code but don't support tool changing or the segmented bed. The G-code protocol is open, and control via OctoPrint or Pronterface is possible. PrusaConnect and Wi-Fi are built in for remote management, while the absence of a locked proprietary ecosystem allows the use of third-party filaments and spare parts.
