Does the Modix Big 60 V4 3D printer work with SimplyPrint, OctoPrint, Mainsail and Fluidd?
Each way of connecting it, what it needs, and how to set it up.
Doesn't ship with Klipper: it runs Klipper after you install it in place of its own firmware, a modification
What works with SimplyPrint
Connected through OctoPrint, SimplyPrint supports everything the Modix Big 60 V4 lets other software do: the camera and AI failure detection, remote printing, temperature and movement control and AutoPrint. 3 features depend on how it's set up: the table says what each needs.

What slicer to use for the Modix Big 60 V4
None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the Modix Big 60 V4, but it takes standard G-code: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.
We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the Modix Big 60 V4.
Cloud-Based Slicer for Modix Big 60 V4
All supported slicers - directly in your browser with SimplyPrint's online cloud slicer. No installation required. Slice your Modix Big 60 V4 models from any device, anywhere in the world!
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.
Note: Other slicers, such as Simplify3D, ideaMaker, SuperSlicer and KISSlicer, aren't in our cloud, so we don't track their profiles. They may still work well with your Modix Big 60 V4: check the slicer's own documentation or forums for a profile. You can also contribute profiles to our open-source slicer profile database on GitHub.
The app for the Modix Big 60 V4
SimplyPrint works as the Modix Big 60 V4's app: on your phone and in any browser, with a slicer in the cloud.
There's no plate swapper or auto-ejection kit for the Modix Big 60 V4 in SimplyPrint yet, but AutoPrint can still keep it printing: once the plate is clear, it starts the next job from your queue.
Ways to automate it
Your own ejection G-codeWrite the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print.

What filament can the Modix Big 60 V4 print?
Filament compatibility for the Modix Big 60 V4: the materials it can handle, judged from its hotend, bed, chamber and enclosure.
Filament
Suitability
Notes
PLA
Great
The easiest filament to print. Works on almost any printer; a heated bed helps adhesion but is not required.
PETG
Great
Comfortably in range (PETG likes a ~230-250C hotend and a ~70-85C bed).
TPU & flexibles
Great
The direct-drive extruder feeds flexible filament well. Print slowly for clean results.
ABS & ASA
With care
The bed is hot enough, but ABS and ASA warp without an enclosure, which is strongly recommended for clean prints.
Nylon (PA)
With care
Possible with care - an enclosure and very dry filament are essential.
Polycarbonate (PC)
With care
On the edge - PC really wants an enclosed, hot chamber to avoid warping.
Carbon-fiber & glass-filled
With care
Possible if you fit a hardened or wear-resistant nozzle - the abrasive fibers quickly wear a stock brass nozzle.
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.
Best filament for the Modix Big 60 V4
Filaments the Modix Big 60 V4 prints well, Modix's own first, then the best known.
Printers from the same maker, of a similar size, printing the same engineering materials or multi-material like it, that you can buy today. Compare up to four side by side, with their specs and how each connects.

Open: open-source Duet firmware, fully offline operation, any filament and any slicer, and upgrade paths for older machines. Only the print heads and some documentation are Modix's own.
Firmware and custom firmware ●●●●●
Modix printers run open-source RepRapFirmware on an off-the-shelf Duet 3 board, which Modix says owners can replace; its Duet configuration and macro files are on GitHub, and upstream Klipper also has a BIG-60 config.
[3][7][8]
Local control and integrations ●●●●●
Modix states its printers run fully offline with no cloud account or internet connection, controlled through Duet Web Control from any browser on the network; Ethernet is standard and Wi-Fi is a removable dongle. RepRapFirmware's HTTP interface is documented, with OpenAPI files, and Duet3D says third-party applications may use it.
[3][9]
Third-party filament, slicers and parts ●●●●●
Any 1.75 mm filament and any slicer that exports G-code, with tested PrusaSlicer and Cura profiles. The Griffin print heads are Modix's own design.
[3][1]
Repairs and spare parts ●●●●●
Modix sells spare print-head, electronics and motion parts and maintenance kits, and ships each new generation as upgrades for machines already in use (GEN5 parts fit earlier Modix printers).
[5][1][4]
Data and privacy ●●●●●
No account, cloud or internet connection is needed to run the printers, and Modix offers air-gapped and closed access-point setups for restricted sites; data stays on your network.
[3][1]
Community and documentation ●●●●●
Configuration files on GitHub and a public specs and news site, but slicer profiles are distributed through a Customer Zone and the user base is small and professional.
[7][3]
Pros
Runs fully offline on open-source RepRapFirmware, with no account needed.
Very large build volumes; the BIG-60 starts at 5,700 USD.
New generations are offered as upgrades for printers already owned.
Any 1.75 mm filament, and a pellet option on the MAMA line.
Cons
The V4-generation models in our catalogue are no longer sold; current machines are GEN5.
Slicer profiles come through a Customer Zone rather than publicly.
Small, professional user community.
Print heads (Griffin) are Modix's own design.
Track record
September 2026: Modix launched Generation 5, a Duet 3 platform with CAN-bus print-head electronics, Ethernet as standard and removable Wi-Fi, offered both on new printers and as an upgrade for machines already in the field.
[4][1]
September 2025: Modix began delivering the MAMA-1700 pellet printer, announced in June 2024.
[4]
November 2022: Modix announced Generation 4 of its BIG line, with IDEX dual extruders and automated calibration.

Follow our step-by-step setup guide for the Modix Big 60 V4. It shows how to connect it via OctoPrint, what you need for each, and which to pick.
What slicer should I use for the Modix Big 60 V4?
Cura, PrusaSlicer and OrcaSlicer all work with the Modix Big 60 V4, and you can run any of them in SimplyPrint's online browser slicer - no install needed, on any device.
Can I use OrcaSlicer with the Modix Big 60 V4?
Yes, but OrcaSlicer has no built-in profile for the Modix Big 60 V4 that we know of: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.
What filament can the Modix Big 60 V4 print?
Based on its specs (hotend up to 500C, heated bed up to 100C), the Modix Big 60 V4 handles PLA, PETG, or TPU & flexibles well. See the full filament guide above for ABS, nylon, PC and composites.
Does the Modix Big 60 V4 work with OctoPrint or Klipper?

What is the Modix Big 60 V4's bed size and build volume?
The Modix Big 60 V4 has a 600 x 600 mm print bed and prints up to 660 mm tall, a build volume of about 600 x 600 x 660 mm. See the full specifications table above for bed type, temperatures and more.
Can the Modix Big 60 V4 eject prints automatically?
There's no kit for it that we support yet, but SimplyPrint's AutoPrint can run your own ejection G-code, work with a robot arm through the API, or wait for you to clear the plate, and then start the next job from your queue.
