What is this?
This is a fork of OrcaSlicer, the 3D-printing slicer, that restores full BambuNetwork support for Bambu Lab printers so you can print over the internet instead of being stuck with LAN-only mode.

On Linux, a normal installation is all you need.

On Linux, a normal installation is all you need.Does Windows really need WSL 2 just to run a slicer?Yes, the Windows build depends on WSL 2 being enabled and configured as Administrator before the first launch of Orca Studio.

No, macOS support is explicitly marked as still work in progress, unlike the Windows and Linux installs.What is the difference between this and LAN-only mode?LAN-only mode restricts Bambu Lab printers to local network connections, while this fork restores BambuNetwork so you get full cloud/internet printing functionality just like the original experience.
