### What works with SimplyPrint

Connected through Klipper (Moonraker), SimplyPrint supports most of what it offers on the Anycubic 4Max: the camera and AI failure detection, remote printing, skipping objects, temperature and movement control and AutoPrint. Not yet in SimplyPrint through Klipper (Moonraker): download the file before the print starts. Not available through Klipper (Moonraker): print binary G-code (.bgcode).

## Automate the Anycubic 4Max

### Ways to automate it

- [Your own ejection G-code](https://staging.simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/custom): Write the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print.
- [A robot arm, or anything with an API](https://staging.simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/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](https://staging.simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/manual-mode): AutoPrint waits for you to mark the plate clear, then starts the next job.

[How AutoPrint works](https://staging.simplyprint.io/features/autoprint). AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.

## What filament can the Anycubic 4Max print?

Filament compatibility for the Anycubic 4Max: 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. |

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Anycubic 4Max compatible with SimplyPrint?

Yes. You can connect the Anycubic 4Max to SimplyPrint via Klipper (Moonraker) or OctoPrint, then slice, queue, start and monitor prints from your browser or the mobile app.

### How do I connect the Anycubic 4Max to SimplyPrint?

Follow our step-by-step setup guide for the Anycubic 4Max. It shows how to connect it via Klipper (Moonraker) or OctoPrint, what you need for each, and which to pick.

### What slicer should I use for the Anycubic 4Max?

We recommend Cura for the Anycubic 4Max. You can run it, and 6 other slicers, directly in SimplyPrint's online slicer - no install, on any device, with profiles for the Anycubic 4Max kept up to date automatically.

### Can I use OrcaSlicer with the Anycubic 4Max?

Yes, but OrcaSlicer has no built-in profile for the Anycubic 4Max 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 Anycubic 4Max print?

Based on its specs (hotend up to 250C, heated bed up to 100C), the Anycubic 4Max handles PLA or PETG well. See the full filament guide above for ABS, nylon, PC and composites.

### Does the Anycubic 4Max work with OctoPrint or Klipper?

The Anycubic 4Max works with OctoPrint or Klipper (Mainsail and Fluidd), and SimplyPrint connects to it through them - so you get cloud access, a queue and camera monitoring on top.

### What is the Anycubic 4Max's bed size and build volume?

The Anycubic 4Max has a 210 x 210 mm print bed and prints up to 300 mm tall, a build volume of about 210 x 210 x 300 mm. See the full specifications table above for bed type, temperatures and more.

### Can the Anycubic 4Max 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.
