What Slicer to Use for Meltingplot MBL 480
Find the best slicing software for your Meltingplot MBL 480 3D printer.
Compatible Slicers for Meltingplot MBL 480
At SimplyPrint we support the following 3 slicers. But, that does not mean that no other slicers are compatible with this the Meltingplot MBL 480. We are working on adding support for more slicers for our online cloud-based slicer.
No Recommended Slicers Found: To our knowledge, none of the slicers we currently track have built-in default profiles for the Meltingplot MBL 480.
However, the printer can probably still be used with these slicers—you'll just need to create your own custom profiles, for example by basing them on profiles from a similar printer model. It's also possible that this printer works best with another slicer—perhaps one made by Meltingplot—that we're not tracking on our website yet.
Automatic Profile Updates: Profiles are automatically checked and fetched from the slicer GitHub repositories every day, as well as from our own open-source community-driven slicer profile database. This ensures you always have access to the latest profiles.

Other Compatible Slicers
Note: Many other excellent slicing software options exist, including Cura, Simplify3D, ideaMaker, KISSlicer, and others. While we don't currently track profiles for these slicers in our database, they may work perfectly with your Meltingplot MBL 480. Check each slicer's official documentation or community forums for compatible profiles and settings. You can also contribute profiles to our open-source slicer profile database on GitHub.
