Software notes The Kobra OS, based on Klipper, supports native features like Input Shaping and is accessible via a touchscreen interface. The machine is compatible with Anycubic Slicer Next and OrcaSlicer, supporting remote monitoring via Wi-Fi through a dedicated app and managing automatic filament changes with the ACE Pro module. The printer works with Anycubic Slicer Next, derived from OrcaSlicer and optimized for the Anycubic ecosystem; it supports multi-plate management and object skipping during printing. Remote control and real-time monitoring are available through the Anycubic app (iOS and Android), connecting via LAN or cloud. The proprietary firmware is not currently open source; native Klipper compatibility is not supported.
