What each 3D printer firmware does well, and where it needs improvement

Check out my 2nd channel, TT Racing: https://www.youtube.com/@TTRacingYT Incredible advancements in firmware have driven the significant growth of 3D printing at home. There are four main 3D printer firmwares available, and each has pros and cons. In this video, I examine what each does well, and look at areas where they could improve the user experience, especially for beginners. Let me know in the comments if you agree with this critique. 0:00 Introduction 0:48 Bambu Lab 3D Printing Industry sales article: https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/bambu-lab-driving-market-dominance-of-entry-level-3d-printers-context-reports-229884/ Bambu Lab GitHub: https://github.com/bambulab Panda Touch video: https://youtu.be/yEAq1Bnb1I8 X1plus community firmware: https://github.com/X1Plus/X1Plus/wiki SD card update wiki: https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/general/update-firmware-from-sd-card 3:46 Marlin Marlin website: https://marlinfw.org/ Marlin GitHub: https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin Marlin Builder website: https://marlin.crc.id.au/builder/ 8:21 RepRapFirmware RRF GitHub: https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware Parallel printing IDEX/toolchanger SV08 by Dave Wood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCq9kTjkhn4 RepRap gcode library: https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes 11:12 Klipper Klipper website: https://www.klipper3d.org/ Klipper GitHub: https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper/ SV08 toolchanger playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGqRUdq5ULsNIN_40Bv1iTbElj6O7BRrU Input shaping guide: https://youtu.be/EJapxNsntsQ Chris Riley’s Klipper backup guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCWWtzrI-e8 Klipper web builder: https://github.com/CODeRUS/klipper_web_builder 16:38 Conclusion Buy quality and affordable filament from www.x3d.com.au .
