Prusa Research CORE One+ INDX
Enclosed Prusa with up to 8 toolheads for near waste free color
Researched by Riley Hart · updated Nov 3, 2026
Is the Prusa Research CORE One+ INDX worth it? The CORE One+ INDX is the pick for people who print a lot in several colors and hate purge waste, since it swaps whole toolheads instead of filament. TechRadar scored it 5/5.
The CORE One+ INDX is the pick for people who print a lot in several colors and hate purge waste, since it swaps whole toolheads instead of filament. Both TechRadar and Tom's Hardware rank it among the best printers they have tested. Skip it if you mainly print one color, need TPU, or want a big bed for the money.
Best for: frequent multi color and multi material printing. Skip if: you print one color or need a large bed.
Specs

- 248 x 205 x 270 mm (TechRadar, Tom's Hardware); a bit smaller than the regular CORE One+

- Up to 8 filaments with 8 toolheads (a 4 tool version is also sold); no purge tower, about 13 mg purged per tool change (Tom's Hardware)
- Enclosure
- Yes, steel frame with translucent door and side panels; chamber held up to 55 C, warmed by the bed, no separate chamber heater (Tom's Hardware)
- Filament types
- Tom's Hardware printed PLA, PETG and ASA or ABS; no Flex or TPU profile at launch. Stock nozzles are not hardened, rated for about 10 kg of PETG-CF or 5 kg of PC-CF (TechRadar)
- Connectivity
- Runs fully offline if you want (TechRadar, Tom's Hardware)
- Noise

Running cost is mostly filament. Abrasive filaments wear the stock nozzles fast (TechRadar), so plan on spare nozzles if you print carbon fiber blends.

What independent reviewers found
- Gave it Editor's Choice. In a head to head with the Bambu Lab H2C, the INDX produced 27 models while the H2C produced 15. Scored 27/30 on its print test suite with 0.208 mm average X and Y error. Downsides: slow recalibration and soft nozzles.
- TechRadar · 5/5
- Editor's Choice. A PLA dragon took 25 h 41 min with 1,646 tool changes and 18 g of waste; a PETG planter took 6 h 14 min with 6.84 g of waste. It made 83.58 g less waste than the Bambu Lab H2C on the same job. TPU prints oozed and jammed.
