| Software notes | 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. | Natively compatible with Creality Print 6.0 and other third-party slicers. It supports Wi-Fi connectivity and features 8 GB of internal eMMC memory for local storage of G-code and 3MF files. |
