The only true way to get a trouble free click and print experience is unfortunately with closed source. when you start intermixing slicers and plastics from other manufacturers there are just too many variables there. i have no problems using their software. why would you use a different slicer anyway. if their setup, printer, slicer and plastic gives great results then there is no reason to use something else. they have worked all the kinks out of it. atleast its abs. mb your stuck with pla which is about useless for anything that doesnt sit on a shelf. if you want a super quality open source printer then give a look at the makergear m2. a usa company that has been around awhile and you cant get better customer support.
