I found a printed parts set for the Prusa i2 here, which includes 10 LM8UU printed linear bushings. Will this work in lieu of bearings or brass bushings?

yes but spring for the linear bearings, not very expensive and much better, i tried the plastic ones that came with mine for kicks and they are sloppy at best, but i had alreadey got the linear ones.

I made these bearings - they have a rifled bore and seem to work well..
