| Software notes | Natively managed via Creality Print, it features AI capabilities for first-layer monitoring and print failure detection. It offers comprehensive connectivity via Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and USB, supporting remote control and the Creality Cloud ecosystem. | PrusaSlicer (optimized) and Prusa Connect for remote control. The machine accepts G-code from any slicer (Cura, Simplify3D) and communicates via USB, Ethernet or Wi-Fi using an open Marlin-based protocol. Compatible with OctoPrint and offline management. Does not require a Prusa account to print, unlike machines with proprietary firmware that block features without connection. |
