| 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 P1P works with Bambu Studio, Bambu Lab's proprietary slicing software available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and with the Bambu Handy mobile app for remote monitoring and print management. Cloud connectivity is optional: the printer also supports a LAN-only mode for users who prefer to operate without connecting to external servers. It is not natively compatible with open-source firmware such as Klipper, nor with third-party slicers like PrusaSlicer or OrcaSlicer without unofficial profiles. |
