What slicer to use for the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX
None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX, 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 Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX
We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX.
Cloud-Based Slicer for Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX

Automate the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX
There's no plate swapper or auto-ejection kit for the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX 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-code Write the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print.
- A robot arm, or anything with an API Tell SimplyPrint the plate is clear through the API or a webhook, from a robot arm or your own system.
- Clear it by hand, keep the queue AutoPrint waits for you to mark the plate clear, then starts the next job.
AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.

What filament can the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX print?
Filament compatibility for the Project R3D Talos 600 IDEX: 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) | 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.
