Does anyone have a Cura profile for Sovol Zero?
Sovol moved from Cura to Orca starting with the SV08.
The only way to get a Cura profile is for a user to create & share one.
My recommendation is to forget Cura and learn Orca. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll see improved prints. The built-in flow rate and pressure advance calibration routines alone are worth the effort.

There is a known bug in OrcaSlicer for some Linux users with some Nvidia graphics cards, where the popup list of printers is blank so it isn’t possible to import the Zero printer profile into OrcaSlicer. I hope the Zero profile for OrcaSlicer is on the USB thumb drive that ships with the Zero, because I haven’t been able to find it online. If not, I’ll need to ask Sovol to email the OrcaSlicer config file to me.
It will be on the USB.

Thank you. I’d checked there before without any luck. I was planning to check again when I received my Zero. It looks like Sovol added most of those files on 10APR25, the day the US Zero shipments were scheduled to start.
There is an OrcaSlicer config for the Mac and Windows versions of OrcaSlicer. I’m not sure why all versions of OrcaSlicer don’t use the same config file. I’m running the Linux OrcaSlicer. The Mac cofig file for the Zero may work? If not, maybe someone will be kind enough to make screenshots of the OrcaSlicer pages so people can have the relevant configuration data to manually create a profile. I assume that’s going to be the best way to add the Zero without overwriting my SV08 profiles.
I’m still eagerly awaiting my Zero. The Sovol Zero web page still says US shipping is 10AUG25, which was six days ago. I’m hoping my order isn’t bumped to the next slow boat from China.
Thanks. That’s disappointing because I have a number of Sovol 7s on Cura and wanted the kids to use the same slicer for the Zero, which would have been cool for them. Orca seems a bit too steep for just this one printer.
You can move the SV07’s to Orca..
But I do understand, coming from Cura myself..it is a little hard to get used to.
Running Cura, Bambu Studio & Orca at the moment.
