Latest Firmware Files
The below firmware is for the latest version of Chitubox Pro or Chitubox Basic v1.9 or higher:
X133-4K |
Update:
ChiTu just released new firmwares with bug fixes and support for ChiTuBox Pro features. If you use ChiTuBox Slicer Pro version, you must update your printer's firmware. These firmwares are also able to take files from ChiTuBox's free version. That means these firmwares have backward compatibility.
The E10 and X10 mono firmwares also have enhancements to better regulate current load on components. So we strongly recommend E10 or X10 mono customers to update the firmware.
Legacy Firmware Files
For customers using Chitubox v1.8, refer to the Legacy Firmware Files below
X1-Classic X1N X1K X10 X133/X156 E6 E10
