What slicer to use for the WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO
None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO, 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 WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO.
Cloud-Based Slicer for WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO
All supported slicers - directly in your browser with SimplyPrint's online cloud slicer. No installation required. Slice your WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO 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 WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO: 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 WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO
SimplyPrint works as the WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO'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 WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO 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 WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO print?
Filament compatibility for the WASP Delta WASP 2040 PRO: 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.

WASP (World's Advanced Saving Project; WASP S.r.l.) is an Italian maker of delta and large-format 3D printers from Massa Lombarda, near Ravenna. Its printers handle technical filaments, pellets, clay and ceramics, and its construction printers (Crane WASP) print buildings from local earth, such as the TECLA house completed with Mario Cucinella Architects in 2021. Buyers are ceramic studios, architects, orthopaedic and medical users, research labs and industry.
Headquarters:
Massa Lombarda (Ravenna), Italy ·
Ownership:
WASP S.r.l.; founded by Massimo Moretti, and WASP says its projects are self-financed ·
Website:www.3dwasp.com
Mixed: open on materials and slicers, with spare parts sold and no cloud required, but the firmware is WASP's own and not published.
Firmware and custom firmware ●●●●●
Current WASP printers run the company's own firmware (WASP's GitHub calls it 'WASP Firmware'). WASP publishes only an old firmware for the discontinued Delta WASP Open kit (2019) and a 2012 Marlin fork for the PowerWASP; we found no source for current machines.
[5][6][8][9]
Local control and integrations ●●●●●
The 4070 FX connects over Wi-Fi, LAN or USB and can be monitored and controlled from a phone, tablet or computer; the 2040 PRO prints from an SD card. WASP's GitHub holds an OctoPrint 1.3.8 fork 'working with WASP firmware' (2021), but WASP does not say which interface current printers expose to other software. WASP also offers remote intervention by its technicians. We found no cloud account requirement.
[2][3][9]
Third-party filament, slicers and parts ●●●●●
Open materials: 1.75 mm (2040 PRO) or 2.85 mm (4070 FX) filament, pellets and clay. A Simplify3D licence is included and Cura or Slic3r also work. Nozzles and extruders are WASP's own (Spitfire, ZEN, HDP).
[2][3][7]
Repairs and spare parts ●●●●●
WASP's shop sells print beds, nozzles, extruders, Bowden kits, filters and gaskets for its printers, and manuals for each machine are downloadable.
[7][4]
Community and documentation ●●●●●
A downloads area with manuals and slicer profiles per printer, and an established maker and research network (open days, IAAC summer camps); little open code or public technical forum.
[4][1][8]
Pros
Prints materials most desktop brands can't: clay, ceramics, pellets and flexible TPU.
Open to third-party filaments and pellets; works with Simplify3D (included), Cura and Slic3r.
Spare nozzles, extruders, beds and filters sold directly by WASP.
Designed and supported in Italy; WASP holds open days at its headquarters.
Cons
Firmware is WASP's own and not published.
Nozzles and extruders are WASP's own designs.
Priced as professional equipment: the Delta WASP 2040 PRO starts at 2,990 euros.
Little public technical community beyond manuals and profiles.
Track record
January 2021: WASP finished printing the structure of TECLA, an earth house designed with Mario Cucinella Architects and printed by synchronised Crane WASP printers, as reported by 3Dnatives.
