| Software notes | 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. | The printer runs Creality's proprietary Marlin-based firmware. It is compatible with Creality Print and Cura 5.0 or later; Simplify3D support is documented by third-party resellers. Print files are transferred via SD card. Community guides exist for converting to Klipper, but this is not an officially supported configuration and requires manual hardware and firmware intervention. |
