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. Klipper-based firmware with a 4.3" colour touchscreen. Compatible with Creality Print, Orca Slicer and PrusaSlicer; remote monitoring via the Creality Cloud app is optional.
