| Software notes | The machine is compatible with major slicing software on the market such as Cura, PrusaSlicer, and Simplify3D, supporting STL and OBJ formats. It features Marlin firmware with advanced functionalities like Linear Advance and Input Shaping. | Artillery OS, a Klipper-based system. Compatible with standard slicers like Cura, PrusaSlicer and OrcaSlicer via G-code. Supports Wi-Fi transfer, SD card and touchscreen control. Compared to closed platforms, it allows advanced adjustment of printing parameters, but lacks a native cloud ecosystem and requires manual slicer configuration. |
