Mesh preparation. This function allows repairing problematic meshes, correcting normals, and rounding vertices. It automatically detects errors in STL and AMF files. Performs boolean operations to combine or subtract models.
Layer configuration. Adjusts layer height according to model requirements. Allows setting different heights for different regions of the model. Modifies surface quality and print time.
Support generation. Creates structures for overhanging areas. Offers soluble and non-soluble supports. Configures the density and pattern of supports according to the geometry.
Variable infill. Controls infill density in different sections of the model. Adjusts the amount of internal material based on structural needs. Saves material and time while maintaining strength.
Multi-material configuration. Manages printers with multiple extruders. Assigns different materials or colors to specific parts of the model. Synchronizes extruder movements.
Vase mode. Specialized for printing enclosed objects with a single opening. Creates continuous walls without the need for internal supports. Optimized for manufacturing containers and similar shapes.
Extrusion calibration. Adjusts material flow to compensate for under-extrusion or over-extrusion. Includes extrusion multiplier tests and pressure compensation.
Layer analysis. Detailed visualization of each layer of the printing process. Shows travel moves, retractions, and material changes. Debugging tool to verify the nozzle path.
Print modifiers. Applies different settings to specific regions of the model. Changes parameters such as speed, flow, or temperature in defined areas.
Material profiles. Stores specific settings for different filaments. Contains parameters for temperature, cooling, and flow compensation. Allows creating custom material libraries.
Infill pattern generation. Offers multiple internal pattern options such as rectilinear, honeycomb, or gyroid. Affects the mechanical properties of the final part. Controls infill density and orientation.
Print time optimization. Calculates the most efficient paths for the nozzle. Reduces unnecessary movements and travel time. Adjusts accelerations and speeds based on printer capabilities.
Initial layer settings. Specialized for adhesion to the print bed. Controls line width, flow, and nozzle distance. Includes brim options and surface patterns.
Support for different printers. Compatibility with multiple brands and models of 3D printers. Configuration of print area, geometry, and specific hardware features.
G-code export. Generates specific instructions for the target printer. Includes customizable commands for pre- and post-processing. Allows adding custom scripts.

PrusaSlicer was initially developed by Prusa Research as a fork of Slic3r. Development began in 2016 to meet the specific needs of Prusa printers. The application is written primarily in C++ with Python components for some functionalities. The development team is led by software engineers from Prusa Research with contributions from the open-source community.
