*It's almost all closed apart from some middling (official) GCODE support/upload with the official software (which has reportedly killed a different printer in their forums) and some open source try to do a separate GCode uploader (still has a lot of issues, and looks abandoned after an actually promising start). And it's the only way to get some simple status updates (it also has nothing but a bi-color LED and a buzzer to indicate operation without it.) It needs some sort of software to 'upload' the commands/code to the internal SD card (which can then work untethered). Somewhat*, the printer doesnt really accept anything other than USB B port or for the newer models, wi-fi. The sturdy mechanics are what prompted me to get the Cetus at work.ĭo they speak such a proprietary form of gcode that you can’t use other slicers? The Cetus supposedly will run off either the Studio (which is what I use) or open-source software, though I haven't tried it.
#WHO MAKES CETUS3D WINDOWS 7#
I run it in Windows 7 so can confirm the latest version definitely supports the older UP! models, but don't know about feature differences with the Mac version.
#WHO MAKES CETUS3D PLUS#
Really want to love the Plus (taiwanese linear rails, 32bit CPU, all metal direct drive, etc.) but the consumer software forcefully paired with it is the biggest hurdle for me to even recommend it to anyone (even to schools). Though havent tried their newest one ("catfish") because the last news on that was they removed all pre-wifi printers support (EOL unless i purchase the new CPU, which is a no for me). And these are my final 10 that I'm aware of so good riddanceĪs for software, I am using the UP! Studio software on MacOS (a slightly older version because they took away custom filaments in the last few versions for mac), it still is (way) antiquated compared to a lot of slicers even at the time of it's release. I dropped retraction to like 0.5mm and at least this print worked. It wasn't a problem with the snowflakes because there was much less retraction, but this one has a ton of sharp corners and edges and way more retractions and it would clog up (easy to unclog, but the filament would get shredded by the extruder and not feed). I finally realized I probably am over-retracting the shine white filament that kind of self retracts. I have been having trouble with a particular set of bag tags (small order)that keeps jamming. I have what looks like a minor problem to fix, but it was too late to invest the time, and I've been too busy, tired, or stressed to even try to finish the job.Īnd I really want to print my niece a new keychain since she broke the last one I gave her. It's been almost two weeks since I got the Ender 3 Pro. and realized it was damned late and went to bed.
