Hi,  
I am curious. My SV06 Plus shipped with “Sovol Cura 1.5.6” as a slicer. There are many more current Cura versions on line,  
Is the version that shipped with the machine the one Sovol recommends, or would it be better to download and use the most current Cura version that can be found on line?

Thanks

or you try orcaslicer or prusa slicer, two very good slicers and more compatible then cura is.

I always use the newest version of Cura. I run 5.71 at this moment for my SV07 Plus, I also use Orca, Chitu, Idea Maker and Lychee, but I have 4 Printers in total from Sovol, Anycubic and Elegoo.  
The SV07 Plus is just my biggest one.
