What slicer to use for the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro

None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro, 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 Zonestar Z9V5 Pro

We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro.

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 Zonestar Z9V5 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 Zonestar Z9V5 Pro

Zonestar doesn't make an app for the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro. SimplyPrint works as its 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 Zonestar Z9V5 Pro

There's no plate swapper or auto-ejection kit for the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro in SimplyPrint yet, but AutoPrint can still keep it printing: once the plate is clear, it starts the next job from your queue.

CoreXY printers push their prints off

The Zonestar Z9V5 Pro's bed only moves up and down, so the usual way to automate it is a G-code routine that lets the toolhead push the cooled print off the front of the plate before the next job starts.

Ways to automate it

AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.

What filament can the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro print?

Filament compatibility for the Zonestar Z9V5 Pro: the materials Zonestar lists for it.

Filament Suitability Notes
PLA Great On the maker's list of materials for this printer.
PETG Great On the maker's list of materials for this printer.
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.
