| Software notes | Native Klipper firmware with a 64-bit ARM 1.5 GHz processor. The printer is controlled via Wi-Fi from the Fluidd or Mainsail web interface, sending G-code from any slicer (Cura, PrusaSlicer, OrcaSlicer). No proprietary software required; USB/Type-C connection allows offline control. The user has full access to macros and advanced Klipper tuning, without hardware modifications. | The official slicer is Bambu Studio, available for macOS, Windows, and Linux. The printer also accepts standard G-code exported from third-party slicers such as PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, and Cura, though certain advanced Bambu-specific features — including RFID-based filament detection and some automatic calibration modes — are only available within Bambu Studio. Remote control is handled via the Bambu Handy mobile app and desktop app; push notifications require cloud connectivity. |
