PrintStream Integrations

Orca Slicer is a free, open source 3D printing slicer for FFF and FDM 3D printers, designed to turn 3D models into precise G-code with advanced calibration tools, intelligent print controls, and a user-friendly workflow. It gives makers a complete environment for preparing, tuning, previewing, and optimizing prints, with support for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Orca Slicer includes a comprehensive calibration suite for temperature towers, flow rate tuning, pressure advance, retraction tests, tolerance testing, maximum flow rate testing, and vertical fine artifact calibration, helping users fine-tune printers and filaments for better print quality. The slicer also offers precise wall and seam control, including outer wall spacing adjustments and scarf seams to improve accuracy and surface finish. It includes features for sandwich mode, polyholes, multi-plate workflows, printer setup, slicing settings, and detailed model preparation, giving users more control over how parts are printed.

PrusaSlicer is our own in-house developed slicer software based on the open-source project Slic3r. PrusaSlicer is an open-source, feature-rich, frequently updated tool that contains everything you need to export the perfect print files for your original Prusa 3D printer. PrusaSlicer is based on Slic3r by Alessandro Ranellucci. It's completely free and open-source. Thanks to the strong community and core team of developers in Prusa Research we can continually add new functionality. You can follow the development process on Github. Paint custom supports directly on the model! Or block automatically generated supports in selected areas. You can also use custom meshes as support blockers and enforcers. Everything is neatly saved in the project file, always customizable. Testers and developers at Prusa Research are constantly working on presets for 150+ filaments and resins. We are adding profiles on regular basis, following materials by the most popular manufacturers.

Bambu Studio is an open source, cutting-edge, feature-rich slicing software developed by Bambu Lab to prepare files for 3D printing. It contains project-based workflows, systematically optimized slicing algorithms, and an easy-to-use interface that helps users move from 3D model to printable file with greater speed and control. It supports basic slicing features, G-code preview, multiple plate management, remote printer control and monitoring, auto-arrange objects, auto-orient objects, and several support options, including hybrid, tree, normal, and customized supports. Bambu Studio is built for multi-material printing and includes rich painting tools that help users assign colors or materials across a model before printing. It supports global, object-level, and part-level slicing parameters, giving users detailed control over print settings depending on the model, object, or individual part.
