| Software notes | Kobra OS (based on Klipper) featuring a 4.3-inch touchscreen interface. Compatible with Anycubic Slicer for color management and Wi-Fi connected for remote monitoring via app. The integrated ACE Pro system automatically handles filament changes and active drying. | The native software is Bambu Studio, available for Windows and macOS, with advanced slicing and direct integration of the machine's proprietary features. The printer is also compatible with third-party slicers that export standard G-code (PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, Cura), though some advanced functions — including AMS control, Vision Encoder calibration, and chamber management — may be unavailable or only partially supported outside the Bambu ecosystem. |
