| Software notes | Powered by Creality OS (Klipper-based) and supports Creality Print, integrating smoothly with major third-party slicers like Cura and PrusaSlicer. | Running on native Klipper firmware, the machine offers an open and accessible control interface via local network (Fluidd or Mainsail). It is natively compatible with QIDI Slicer (derived from PrusaSlicer/Orca), but easily supports all major third-party slicers. It includes advanced features such as input shaping and automatic calibration to maximize print quality at high speeds without requiring registration to proprietary cloud services. |
