Software notes The firmware natively manages the protocol via an integrated web interface accessible via WiFi or Ethernet, eliminating the need for dedicated applications. The machine is compatible with the main standard slicers on the market, which generate the G-code needed to control the piston extrusion system via standard printer commands. The system uses the Duet Web Control firmware, which allows for complete management via a web interface on any Wi-Fi-connected device, without requiring dedicated control software installed locally. For toolpath generation (slicing), the manufacturer recommends using Simplify3D, although the machine is compatible with any software capable of exporting G-code files. The architecture is open to the integration of auxiliary systems for material flow management via standard protocols.
