Posted · Can't find Neptune 4 Max 3D printer to add in Cura

Hi!

 

I am brand new and just learning. I have a Neptune 4 Max printer and when I was trying to set up cura, I couldn't find this printer in the drop down list of printers to add. I can see other neptune printers up to the 3 but none of the Neptune 4 printers. However, I see in the forums people are using Neptune 4 printers with Cura. It seems like the slicer would need to know my specific model to accurately slice things for me to make, right? So I figured I couldn't just use a different printer.

 

If it matters, I have downloaded the most recent version of Cura and I am on a macbook running MacOS Ventura.

    It should be added in Cura 5.7 when it is released.

    The 4 Max definition file is HERE.  It might also require any supporting files (extruders, nozzles, quality, etc.).

    You might be able to add a Neptune 3 and then make any changes that you see in that 4 Max file (bed size, startup gcode, etc.).  That might work.

    Maybe.

    Possibly.
