What slicer to use for the Flashforge Adventurer 3 Pro 2

What filament can the Flashforge Adventurer 3 Pro 2 print?
Filament compatibility for the Flashforge Adventurer 3 Pro 2: the materials Flashforge lists for it.
Filament
Suitability
Notes
PLA
Great
On the maker's list of materials for this printer.
PETG
Great
On the maker's list of materials for this printer.
TPU & flexibles
With care
Possible, but a Bowden extruder makes flexibles harder - print slowly and prefer firmer (higher-shore) TPU.
ABS & ASA
Great
On the maker's list of materials for this printer.
Nylon (PA)
Good
Doable with care - dry the filament thoroughly, and an enclosure helps a lot.
Polycarbonate (PC)
Not ideal
Not recommended - PC needs very high hotend temps and an enclosed chamber.
Carbon-fiber & glass-filled
Great
On the maker's list of materials for this printer.
Tip: this is a general guide from the printer's specs - always check your filament's recommended settings. With SimplyPrint you can save a profile for each spool and track exactly what filament you have in stock.

Flashforge (Zhejiang Flashforge 3D Technology) is a Chinese 3D printer maker founded in 2011. It sells the Adventurer 5M and 5M Pro CoreXY printers, the AD5X multi-colour printer and the Creator series, plus resin and wax printers, to customers ranging from hobbyists to businesses.

Flashforge is mixed: the Adventurer 5M runs Klipper with published source and works in a LAN mode with open slicers, but the stock system is closed to modification and its app relies on the cloud.
Firmware and custom firmware ●●●●●
The Adventurer 5M series runs Klipper, and Flashforge published its Klipper source on GitHub under GPL-3.0 in January 2024. The stock system is not built to be modified: the community 'Klipper Mod', which adds Moonraker, Mainsail and Fluidd, is unofficial and warns that it may cost the warranty.
[1][2]
Local control and integrations ●●●●●
A LAN mode lets Orca-Flashforge send jobs on the local network, and USB printing works offline. The Flash Maker app needs internet and a Flashforge account and does not connect in LAN mode. Flashforge documents no local API for other software. Moonraker with Mainsail or Fluidd comes only with the community Klipper Mod, which is unofficial and warns that it may cost the warranty.
[3][4][2]
Third-party filament, slicers and parts ●●●●●
Third-party filament works; Orca-Flashforge is an open-source OrcaSlicer fork and OrcaSlicer itself supports Flashforge printers. Nozzles are sold as complete printer-specific assemblies.
[5][6][7]
Repairs and spare parts ●●●●●
Flashforge sells nozzle, extruder, filament-feeding and touchscreen assemblies for the Adventurer 5M, and its wiki has replacement guides, for example the AD5X extruder board.
[7][8]
Community and documentation ●●●●●
A wiki with manuals, FAQs and maintenance guides, and slicer and Klipper sources on GitHub; much of the advanced use comes from the community mod.
[3][1][2]
Pros
Long-established maker, founded in 2011.
LAN mode and USB printing work without the cloud.
Klipper source and an open-source slicer are published.
Common replacement assemblies are sold for the Adventurer 5M.
Cons
Stock firmware is not meant to be modified; deeper control needs an unofficial community mod.
The Flash Maker app needs internet and an account, and does not work in LAN mode.
Nozzles are sold as complete printer-specific assemblies.
Track record
January 2024: Flashforge published the Klipper source for the Adventurer 5M and 5M Pro on GitHub under GPL-3.0.
