Software notes The machine is managed through PrusaSlicer, with dedicated profiles for multi-toolhead configuration and automatic calculation of purge towers or wipe-to-infill strategies. The firmware includes Input Shaper and Pressure Advance for vibration compensation at high speeds. Network connectivity allows job submission and remote monitoring via Prusa Connect, though this is not a requirement for using the machine. The printer is natively compatible with PrusaSlicer, an open-source slicer with official tested profiles for all supported materials; OrcaSlicer profiles are also available. The firmware is Prusa-proprietary (STM32/xBuddy-based) with no native Klipper support. Remote management is available via Prusa Connect (optional cloud platform) or over the local network; offline printing from USB is fully supported with no functional limitations.
