| Software notes | Powered by Kobra OS (a Klipper fork), it features Wi-Fi connectivity, vibration compensation, dynamic flow calibration, and a camera with built-in AI detection. | Compatible with Artillery Slicer and Cura; the Marlin firmware accepts standard G-code, so it works with PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, OrcaSlicer. WiFi file transfer does not offer a Klipper web interface, limiting remote monitoring and real-time adjustments. |
