Connect the Proteor ARES to SimplyPrint

Does the Proteor ARES 3D printer work with SimplyPrint, OctoPrint, Mainsail and Fluidd? Each way of connecting it, what it needs, and how to set it up.

What slicer to use for the Proteor ARES

None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the Proteor ARES, 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 Proteor ARES

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

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 Proteor ARES: 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 Proteor ARES

SimplyPrint works as the Proteor ARES'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 Proteor ARES

There's no plate swapper or auto-ejection kit for the Proteor ARES 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

AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.

What filament can the Proteor ARES print?

Filament compatibility for the Proteor ARES: 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.

Can I use OrcaSlicer with the Proteor ARES?

Yes, but OrcaSlicer has no built-in profile for the Proteor ARES 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 Proteor ARES print?

Based on its specs (hotend up to 450C, heated bed up to 120C), the Proteor ARES handles PLA or PETG well. See the full filament guide above for ABS, nylon, PC and composites.

What is the Proteor ARES's bed size and build volume?

The Proteor ARES has a 850 x 450 mm print bed and prints up to 925 mm tall, a build volume of about 850 x 450 x 925 mm. See the full specifications table above for bed type, temperatures and more.

Can the Proteor ARES 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.
