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. The printer runs Marlin firmware with an open G-code protocol, compatible with any slicer like Cura, PrusaSlicer, or Simplify3D. Artillery Slicer is a customized version of Cura with optimized profiles. WiFi connectivity allows file transfer via a dedicated app but doesn't support a full web interface. Input shaping and pressure advance are preconfigured and factory-tuned, reducing initial calibration.
