What's Changed

New Features

• Enabling Orca to transfer G-code via Wi-Fi
  Luban is the transfer station enabling Orca to communicate with your machine through the OctoPrint protocol (protocol: Octo/Kilpper; port: 5000). When you have connected your machine to Luban via a Wi-Fi network, you can transfer the G-code generated by Orca via Wi-Fi and start printing.
  

• Users can register and log in to the Snapmaker User Center, which currently offers limited features but will expand next year.
