What slicer to use for the Ortur Ortur4

None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the Ortur Ortur4, but it takes standard G-code: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.

No profile for the Ortur Ortur4

We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the Ortur Ortur4.

Profiles and other slicers

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 Ortur Ortur4: 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.

SimplyPrint works as the Ortur Ortur4's app: on your phone and in any browser, with a slicer in the cloud.

What you get with SimplyPrint

  • An app for iPhone and Android, the same in any browser, and a slicer in the cloud.
  • More than monitoring: a print queue, AI failure detection, AutoPrint and accounts for a team.
  • Printers from many brands in one place, side by side.
  • A European cloud: hosted in Frankfurt, Germany, under the GDPR.

Automate the Ortur Ortur4

What filament can the Ortur Ortur4 print?

Filament compatibility for the Ortur Ortur4: 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 With care Possible, but a Bowden extruder makes flexibles harder - print slowly and prefer firmer (higher-shore) TPU.
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) Not ideal Not recommended - PC needs very high hotend temps and an enclosed chamber.
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.
