| Software notes | 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. | 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. |
