| Software notes | Powered by Anycubic Kobra OS (based on Klipper) and operated via a 4.3-inch capacitive touch interface. Compatible with Anycubic Slicer, OrcaSlicer, and other third-party software. It offers Wi-Fi connectivity and integration with the Anycubic app for remote monitoring. Multicolor printing requires the external ACE Pro module, sold separately. | The firmware runs on a proprietary Kobra OS layer built on top of Klipper; the official slicer is Anycubic Slicer Next, derived from OrcaSlicer, available for Windows and macOS. Third-party OrcaSlicer is also supported. Remote monitoring and control are available via the Anycubic app (iOS/Android) over LAN, with no mandatory cloud connection required for core printing functions. |
