| Software notes | 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. | 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. |
