The Original Prusa MK4S is equipped with a Near Field Communication antenna, abbreviated NFC. This allows you to quickly write data into the NFC chip present on the xBuddy board, and the data can be used by the printer.
Our application for this is writing Wi-Fi credentials, using a mobile device that supports NFC.
The chip in the NFC antenna is passive. It cannot trigger communication with another device. However, the printer can store and read data that is passed from the NFC antenna.
The pre-assembled version of the MK4S comes with the NFC antenna already assembled. On the MK4S kit, it is assembled with the following steps.
Download our Prusa app on your mobile device. In the app, navigate to Menu -> Set up Printer Wi-Fi.
The app guides you through the steps, including inserting the Wi-Fi credentials. After inserting the credentials, the app shows that is sending the info to the printer. In that phase, move the device close to the bottom side of the electronics box, at a maximum of 2-3 cm away.
The printer screen prompts for confirmation. Once confirmed, the Wi-Fi credentials are read by the printer, and the printer is able to connect to the specified Wi-Fi network
