| 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. | 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. |
