Prusa (Prusa Research) is a leading Czech manufacturer of 3D printers based in Prague, founded by Josef Průša, one of the key figures of the open‑source RepRap movement. The brand has built a worldwide reputation thanks to its range of desktop FDM 3D printers Original Prusa – from the iconic i3/MK4S models and the compact Original Prusa MINI to the large‑format and multi‑material Original Prusa XL. Everything is designed and manufactured directly in the Czech Republic, including in‑house Prusament filaments and resins, which guarantees top‑tier quality, long service life, and perfectly tuned profiles in the PrusaSlicer software.
What makes the Prusa brand exceptional in the 3D printing industry is the combination of an open approach, high reliability, and a strong focus on user comfort. Prusa printers have long been recognized by expert magazines and the community alike for their precise and consistent print quality, easy maintenance, upgradeability, and extensive support – from detailed manuals to an active user base. The in‑house print farm with hundreds of machines running non‑stop serves as living proof of the robustness of the design. Thanks to this, Prusa products are ideal for home enthusiasts, schools and universities, as well as for professional prototyping, small‑batch production, and industrial applications where reliability, accuracy, and predictable 3D printing results are crucial.
