Prusa’s newest 3D printer is the Prusa CORE One L+ INDX, an enclosed tool-changer printer announced on August 27, 2026 at $2,739 with four tools or $2,989 with eight. It has not shipped yet. The newest Prusa printers you can buy now are the Prusa CORE One+ (Gen 2) at $1,299, the Prusa CORE One L+ at $1,999 and the Original Prusa XL+ at $2,299, all launched on August 13, 2026.

The table lists all 13 Prusa Research printers in the database, newest announcement first, with each US launch price for the base configuration (four tools on the INDX printers, one toolhead on the XL+). Prusa’s current store prices are in Prusa 3D printer prices.

What is Prusa’s newest printer?

The CORE One L+ INDX is Prusa’s newest printer: the enclosed CORE One L+ with Bondtech’s INDX tool changer, announced on August 27, 2026 at $2,739 with four tools or $2,989 with eight. It has not shipped. The newest Prusa printers on sale are the CORE One+ (Gen 2), CORE One L+ and XL+, launched on August 13, 2026.

The newest model in each Prusa line:

  • CORE One: the CORE One L+ INDX (August 27, 2026) and the Prusa CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDX (August 20, 2026, from $1,999), both announced but not shipping. Without INDX, the CORE One+ (Gen 2) and CORE One L+ have shipped since August 2026. They replaced the Prusa CORE One+ and Prusa CORE One L.
  • XL: the Original Prusa XL+ (August 13, 2026), $2,299 with one toolhead and shipping since August 2026. It replaced the Original Prusa XL.
  • MK: the Original Prusa MK4S (August 12, 2024, $1,099), an open-frame bedslinger (its bed moves front to back) and the only MK model Prusa still sells.
  • MINI: the Original Prusa MINI+ (November 24, 2020, $399), a 180 × 180 × 180 mm open-frame bedslinger and the oldest Prusa printer in the database that still ships.

All five Prusa printers announced in 2026 came in August: the CORE One+ (Gen 2), CORE One L+ and XL+ on August 13, then the two INDX printers on August 20 and 27. In 2025 Prusa announced the CORE One L on October 31 and the CORE One+ at Formnext on November 19. The Prusa CORE One, shown at Formnext in November 2024, started shipping in January 2025.

Prusa Research, the company Josef Prusa founded in 2012, has announced no printer since August 27, 2026. Rumored or leaked models stay out of the database.

Prusa’s newest printer hardware is the 400 °C HT Hotend for the CORE One+ and CORE One L+, released on October 21, 2026 as an upgrade or fitted at the factory to a new CORE One L+. Prusa’s US store lists that printer as the CORE One L+ (HighTemp Hotend), $2,169 on October 30, 2026: a configuration of the CORE One L+, not a new model. The HT Hotend does not work with INDX.

What is Prusa’s new 8-head printer?

Prusa’s 8-head printer is the INDX version of the CORE One+ (Gen 2) or CORE One L+: the same enclosed printer with Bondtech’s INDX tool changer built in. It parks up to eight nozzles, each with its own filament, and picks one up in about 12 seconds, so one print can use eight colors or materials.

An “8-color”, “8-nozzle” or “multi-head” Prusa is the same machine: eight INDX tools are eight nozzles with eight filaments loaded at once. What a buyer needs to know (prices from Prusa’s US store on October 30, 2026):

  • Two complete printers. The CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDX has a 248 × 205 × 270 mm build volume and a 55 °C chamber rating. It costs $2,249 assembled with eight tools or $1,949 as a kit, and $1,999 assembled or $1,699 as a kit with four. The CORE One L+ INDX has a 298 × 275 × 330 mm build volume and a 60 °C chamber rating, and costs $2,739 with four tools or $2,989 with eight, assembled only.
  • Four or eight tools. The four-tool versions keep empty dock slots and take four more tools later.
  • An upgrade for existing printers. INDX conversion kits fit the CORE One, CORE One+, CORE One+ (Gen 2), CORE One L and CORE One L+, at $749 to $1,079. New kit orders are estimated to ship after February 2027.
  • How it differs from the XL. The XL+ takes up to five toolheads, and Prusa describes each XL tool as “a complete print head: motor, gears, heater, temperature sensor, and wiring.” An INDX tool is only a nozzle in a dock, with no electronics. One powered head (Prusa calls it the Smart Head) picks a tool up and heats its steel nozzle by induction. Prusa puts the waste at about 0.013 g of plastic per change.

When will the Prusa INDX be released?

INDX conversion kits are already shipping, but Prusa has not confirmed that complete INDX printers have shipped. As of October 30, 2026, Prusa estimates that new orders for the assembled CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDX ship after December 21, 2026. New orders for its kit ship after February 2027, and for the CORE One L+ INDX after January 18, 2027.

Prusa and Bondtech introduced INDX at Formnext on November 19, 2025 as an eight-material upgrade for the CORE One. Orders for conversion kits opened on April 23, 2026, and Prusa’s help center lists the first six batches as sent.

Orders for the complete CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDX opened on August 20, 2026, and for the CORE One L+ INDX on August 27. Prusa’s product pages then gave October 15 and November 5 as their shipping starts. Prusa’s help center now says some key INDX components took longer to arrive than expected, which delayed the first wave of orders and pushed back shipping for the summer release. For the CORE One L+ INDX, it says shipping starts in November 2026 and gives a later estimate for new orders than the product page: after February 2027.

Until Prusa confirms that complete INDX printers have shipped, the database lists both as announced. Upcoming 3D printers tracks every announced model from every brand.
