One step closer to DRM filament spools. Just like the overpriced ink cartridges of 2d printers. The safety and security arguments are always bullshit. This is only about control over what you can do. No other printer has ever had an issue with safety or security with vastly more open designs.

I remember people warning this would happen years ago on various online threads, and getting ridiculed for it.

Yeah, print out that fuckin’ telephone because we called it. Sometimes it sucks to be right.

I have not updated my x1 firmware and never will be.

I did this, but experienced a lot of issues connecting to it afterwards. Constant disconnects and it taking several minutes after opening Orca/Studio to find it.
Any advice, as I’d like to go back to LAN Mode?
Cheers

I’ve never been happier about my Prusa, despite some of what I felt were their suboptimal choices in the last few years, at least they’ve never seemed malicious.
