| Software notes | The system uses Duet firmware, offering a web-based control interface (Duet Web Control) accessible from any Wi-Fi-connected device. The machine does not require specific proprietary control software, but standard G-code-compatible slicing software is required to generate toolpaths. | The firmware is based on the Duet 6HC electronics, compatible with the G-code standard, which allows the use of widely used slicers such as Cura, PrusaSlicer, Slic3r, and SuperSlicer. This open architecture gives the user complete control over extrusion parameters and print profiles, avoiding the restrictions typical of closed proprietary software. |
