Software notes Artillery OS, a Klipper-based system. Compatible with standard slicers like Cura, PrusaSlicer and OrcaSlicer via G-code. Supports Wi-Fi transfer, SD card and touchscreen control. Compared to closed platforms, it allows advanced adjustment of printing parameters, but lacks a native cloud ecosystem and requires manual slicer configuration. Compatible with any slicer that generates standard G-code, such as Cura, PrusaSlicer, Simplify3D, IdeaMaker. The machine uses open-source Marlin 2.0 firmware with no proprietary locks. The communication protocol is standard USB serial, not GRBL, with profiles widely documented by the community.
