TAZ Pro use in 2026

Hi there, I’m a makerspace librarian that inherited an original TAZ Pro ‘standard’ model that no one has really been able to make work for 8ish years. My tech and I put in significant hours trying to test it months ago, but we kept hitting significant roadblocks. And compared to the Taz 6, Taz Pro resources are practically nonexistent, and so therefore we have been making do with our Taz 6s.

One of my core issues/concerns right now is that the newest update for Cura doesn’t seem to support the original TAZ Pro standard profile at all: Cura only lists profile defaults for the Taz Pro S, XT+, and Long Bed v2 which do seem to have distinct settings incompatible with the Taz Pro [standard]. I do have the original flashdrive with the correct profile on it, but it doesn’t sound like there is any way ‘to upload’ this into this new Cura.

Is there a recommended ‘dupe’ profile now in 2026? I will also be splitting our dual extruder into 2 separate SE 0.5mm stainless steel toolheads [per Reddit]. The heat creep on the dual extrusion was so bad when we tried it, and the reddit poster says the aerostruder is a pretty good dupe setting (although that still doesn’t solve my machine presets problem).

Any and all advice on the Taz Pro standard would be so appreciated! Thank you!

What version of Cura? 4.13.17 was the last I downloaded, and the entry for Taz Pro (S) is for both the Taz Pro and Taz Pro S. The ‘S’ being the model that shipped with a single nozzle toolhead, but otherwise is the same printer.

Taz Pro with Dual is this configuration:

Splitting the dual toolhead won’t exactly net you two SE 0.5s, since one is a mirrored version of the Titan Aero.

You could build out a single SE 0.5 from it, and have some spare parts (heatsink fan, nozzle, heater, heater block, thermistors, motor).
