[How AutoPrint works](https://staging.simplyprint.io/features/autoprint). AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up. ## RepRap Neo specifications: bed size, print height and more ### Size - Build volume: 150 x 150 x 150 mm - Bed type: Square - Bed size: 150 x 150 mm - Max print height: 150 mm ### Printing - Max extruder temperature: 265 °C - Has heated bed: No - Number of nozzles: 1 - Direct drive: No - Probing tool / Auto Bed Leveling: No - Filament width: 1.75 mm ### Connecting - Supports serial printing: Yes - Shipped firmware: Marlin ### Files and slicing - Supported file formats: G-code (.gcode, .gco, .g) ### The printer - Printer manufacturer / brand: RepRap - Printer model name: Neo ## What filament can the RepRap Neo print? Filament compatibility for the RepRap Neo: 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 | With care | Marginal - PETG prefers a hotter bed (~70-80C) than this printer reaches. | | TPU & flexibles | With care | Possible, but a Bowden extruder makes flexibles harder - print slowly and prefer firmer (higher-shore) TPU. | | ABS & ASA | Not ideal | Not recommended - the bed cannot reach the ~90-110C ABS and ASA need. | | Nylon (PA) | Not ideal | Not recommended - nylon needs a hotter hotend (~250-270C) and ideally an enclosure. | | 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. | ### Best filament for the RepRap Neo Filaments the RepRap Neo prints well, RepRap's own first, then the best known. - [Bambu Lab PLA Basic](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/bambu-lab/pla-basic): PLA, 190-240 °C - [Bambu Lab PLA Matte](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/bambu-lab/pla-matte): PLA, 190-230 °C - [SUNLU PLA](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/sunlu/pla): PLA, 190-230 °C - [Anycubic PLA Basic](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/anycubic/pla-basic): PLA, 190-230 °C - [Bambu Lab PLA Metal](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/bambu-lab/pla-metal): PLA, 190-240 °C - [Bambu Lab PLA Silk+](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/bambu-lab/pla-silk-plus): PLA, 190-240 °C - [Bambu Lab PLA Translucent](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/bambu-lab/pla-translucent): PLA, 190-240 °C - [Bambu Lab PLA Wood](https://staging.simplyprint.io/filaments/bambu-lab/pla-wood): PLA, 190-240 °C ## Compare the RepRap Neo with similar printers - [Flashforge Creator Pro 2](https://staging.simplyprint.io/compatibility/flashforge-creator-pro-2): Compatible, 200 x 148 x 150 mm, Similar build volume - [Flashforge Creator Pro](https://staging.simplyprint.io/compatibility/flashforge-creator-pro): Compatible, 227 x 148 x 150 mm, Similar build volume - [XYZprinting da Vinci mini w+](https://staging.simplyprint.io/compatibility/xyzprinting-da-vinci-mini-w-plus): Compatible, 150 x 150 x 150 mm, Similar build volume - [Creality Ender-2 Pro](https://staging.simplyprint.io/compatibility/creality-ender-2-pro): Compatible, 165 x 165 x 180 mm, Similar build volume - [Compare the RepRap Neo with other printers](https://staging.simplyprint.io/compatibility/compare?compare=reprap-neo#choose) Affiliate disclosure: Some links on this page are affiliate links.

You can connect the RepRap Neo 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 RepRap Neo to SimplyPrint? Follow our step-by-step setup guide for the RepRap Neo. 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 RepRap Neo? We recommend Cura for the RepRap Neo. You can run it, and 6 other slicers, directly in SimplyPrint's online slicer - no install, on any device, with profiles for the RepRap Neo kept up to date automatically. ### Can I use OrcaSlicer with the RepRap Neo? Yes, but OrcaSlicer has no built-in profile for the RepRap Neo 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 RepRap Neo print? Based on its specs (hotend up to 265C, no heated bed), the RepRap Neo handles PLA well. See the full filament guide above for ABS, nylon, PC and composites. ### Does the RepRap Neo work with OctoPrint or Klipper? The RepRap Neo 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 RepRap Neo's bed size and build volume? The RepRap Neo has a 150 x 150 mm print bed and prints up to 150 mm tall, a build volume of about 150 x 150 x 150 mm. See the full specifications table above for bed type, temperatures and more. ### Can the RepRap Neo 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. --- © 2026 SimplyPrint.
