| Software notes | Model preparation for the Photon P1 is primarily handled by Anycubic Photon Workshop, a proprietary slicing software that has evolved significantly, offering an intuitive interface alongside advanced mesh repair and support tools. The printer still maintains an open nature, being fully compatible with popular third-party slicers widely appreciated by the community, such as Chitubox, Lychee Slicer, and Tango. Network connectivity via Wi-Fi and a LAN port, alongside the traditional USB port, allows for seamless remote control, integrating perfectly with the Anycubic mobile app. This flexibility grants users the freedom to choose their preferred software workflow, always ensuring the maximum output quality of the printed file. | The machine is natively compatible with major resin slicers, including Chitubox and Lychee Slicer, ensuring a well-established and versatile workflow. It features Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, supporting remote management via the proprietary Phrozen GO app, which allows users to monitor print status in real-time and receive notifications. It also supports local file transfer via USB port, offering operational flexibility without a network connection. |
