Software notes Compatible with the main slicers on the market. It supports cloud connectivity via the Anycubic app and Wi-Fi for remote monitoring, while still allowing offline use via USB. The X2D uses Bambu Studio as its official software, available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It also accepts standard G-code from third-party slicers such as PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, and Cura, though some advanced features — including automatic calibration and dual-nozzle workflow management — are only fully supported within Bambu Studio.
