No idea, I do not have a Snapmaker... I fell for the Bambu marketing and the lack of availability of good alternatives circa 2 years ago, and hopefully this X1C will serve me for the next two three years - but I am feeling the limitations of a single print head and the build volume.

X1C at least has a custom 3rd party firmware. So you can keep control of your machine at the very least.

it's not really a custom firmware, and it only works with a year old official fw.
