Software notes 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. Full Klipper firmware with integrated Mainsail or Fluidd web interface via Wi-Fi. Compatible with any slicer that generates standard G-code: Ultimaker Cura, PrusaSlicer, OrcaSlicer. The protocol is open Klipper, the user can directly adjust Input Shaping and Pressure Advance from the web interface without additional software.
