Detailed Description
# Prusa CORE One+
Overview
The Prusa CORE One+ is a fully enclosed CoreXY FDM 3D printer designed for reliable everyday printing, engineering materials and professional prototyping. It combines Prusa's Nextruder platform with active chamber temperature control, automatic first-layer calibration and a compact enclosed architecture.
With a 250 × 220 × 270 mm build volume, a 290°C standard hotend and chamber control up to 55°C, the CORE One+ can handle common materials as well as more demanding engineering filaments. It is available either fully assembled or as a kit.

Material Compatibility
Standard Materials
- PLA
- PETG
- TPU / Flex
- PVA
Engineering Materials
- ABS
- ASA
- PC
- PA
- PP
- CPE
- PVB
- HIPS
Reinforced Materials
- PC-CF / PCCF
Recommended use: The actively controlled chamber is particularly useful for materials that benefit from a warmer and more stable printing environment.
Important: Prusa lists ABS, ASA, HIPS and PA together with the optional Advanced Filtration System in its current material specifications. Abrasive reinforced materials require appropriate wear-resistant nozzle hardware.
Automation and Expansion
The CORE One+ includes automatic first-layer calibration through its load-cell system and supports Prusa's advanced motion-control features for improved print quality and speed.
- Automatic first-layer calibration
- Input Shaper
- PhaseStepping
- Filament sensing
- Quick-swap nozzle system
- Prusa Connect support
- Optional internal camera
- Optional HEPA filtration
Multi-Material Printing
The CORE One+ supports Prusa's MMU3 system for printing with up to five filaments and is also designed for the newer INDX multi-tool expansion platform.
Important: MMU3 and INDX are optional accessories and should not be presented as standard equipment with the base printer.
Comparison Section
The Prusa CORE One+ competes most directly with enclosed desktop engineering printers such as the Bambu Lab P2S, while the larger Bambu Lab H2D provides a step up in build capacity, temperature capability and dual-nozzle printing.
| Feature | Prusa CORE One+ | Bambu Lab P2S | Bambu Lab H2D |
|---|---|---|---|
| Motion system | CoreXY | Enclosed FDM platform | Enclosed dual-nozzle FDM |
| Build volume | 250 × 220 × 270 mm | 256 × 256 × 256 mm | Up to 350 × 320 × 325 mm total accessible space |
| Maximum nozzle temperature | 290°C | 300°C | 350°C |
| Maximum bed temperature | 120°C | 110°C | 120°C |
| Active chamber heating | Yes, up to 55°C | No | Yes, up to 65°C |
| Extrusion system | Direct-drive Nextruder | Single nozzle | Dual nozzle |
| Multi-material expansion | MMU3 or INDX | AMS ecosystem | Dual nozzle plus AMS ecosystem |
| Maximum material channels | MMU3: 5; INDX: up to 8 | Depends on AMS configuration | Depends on dual-nozzle and AMS configuration |
| Ethernet | Yes | No | Model configuration dependent |
| Best suited for | Enclosed CoreXY printing, engineering materials, repairability and multi-tool expansion | Compact enclosed functional and engineering printing | Larger professional, high-temperature and dual-material workflows |
Recommended use: Choose the Prusa CORE One+ when an actively controlled chamber, CoreXY architecture, Ethernet connectivity and upgrade paths such as MMU3 or INDX are priorities. Consider the Bambu Lab P2S for a compact enclosed Bambu Lab workflow, or the Bambu Lab H2D when you need a larger build area, dual nozzles and higher chamber and nozzle temperatures.
Callout Section
Recommended use: The CORE One+ is a strong choice for users who want an enclosed, repairable and upgradeable CoreXY printer capable of both everyday materials and demanding engineering applications.
