| Software notes | Anycubic Kobra OS (a closed Klipper-based system) compatible with the Anycubic mobile app for remote control. Supports all major slicers. | 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. |
