| Software notes | The system is natively supported by QIDI Studio, a slicing software derived from PrusaSlicer and Orca Slicer, providing a modern interface and advanced features. The open architecture still allows the use of third-party slicing solutions. Network connectivity, via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, facilitates direct remote printing and monitoring, aided by the built-in camera. | The device utilizes the proprietary Snapmaker Luban software, an integrated environment that intuitively manages file preparation and print process monitoring. Luban offers preset profiles for the most common materials, simplifying the workflow for less experienced operators, while also granting access to advanced parameters for fine-tuning extrusion settings. Alternatively, the machine is fully compatible with popular third-party slicers on the market, such as Ultimaker Cura and PrusaSlicer, provided a custom profile is configured to fully leverage the system's capabilities. |
