Some notes about Cura

Although BCN3D Technologies printers are compatible with many G-Code software generators, we recommend using the Cura version developed by BCN3D Technologies.

Cura is an open source software that fits very well to the new IDEX functionality.

To provide a better printing experience, our version incorporates some changes in both the interface and functionalities. That way, we've achieved a better performance of the overall 3D Printing ecosystem.
