Working on keeping track of a few interesting posts that I've found around the internet..
I'll be throwing together some links to random bits of information with respect to 3d printing - Links to reddit posts, printables/thingiverse/thangs links for future tracking, all because my personal notes and reddit histories are not very useful for tracking down information!

Information around multi-material printing with an MMU
https://www.reddit.com/r/prusa3d/comments/1cm8knv/comment/l2za6gg/ - First, make sure you are in Advanced / Expert mode, these are considered Advanced settings.
Print Settings -> Multiple Extruders
In the "Extruders" section, you can set the extruder being used for various parts of the print and tower. "Wipe tower extruder" controls which one is being used for the outer wall of the tower.
-
You also must set the support distance to “0.0 (soluble)”, otherwise it gives a warning about not supporting multiple extruders with the wipe tower.
Of course this is exactly what you want, but if you don’t set the support gap to zero before assigning extruders, it looks like it doesn’t work.
