| Software notes | The X1E works with Bambu Studio, Bambu Lab's proprietary slicer, which handles slicing, automatic calibration, and remote monitoring via the Bambu Handy app. Orca Slicer, an open-source Bambu Studio fork with dedicated profiles, is also supported. The firmware is proprietary; Klipper is not natively supported. The printer can run in LAN-only mode, operating fully without an internet connection through the local network. | The machine is primarily managed via Snapmaker Luban, a free proprietary software integrating file preparation for 3D printing, laser engraving, and CNC milling into a single environment. While intuitive for beginners, experienced users may find limitations in advanced settings. However, the system accepts G-code files generated by third-party slicers like Cura or PrusaSlicer for 3D printing, and software like LightBurn or Fusion 360 for laser and CNC work, ensuring excellent operational versatility. |
