In this article, we will show you how to import Cura profile for your KINGROON KP3S Pro V2 or KLP1 3D printers. To make sure everyone can start with Klipper firmware easily, our engineers are dedicated to preparing everything that may help people. The cura profiles we use are specifically optimized for high-speed printing under the Klipper firmware.
Since the profiles hasn’t been submitted to Cura yet, you need to import them manually. You can find them in the USB drive. Move those files to the Cura folders, you can add the printer from the list.

Mac Users
It is a little bit different for Mac users. Click right on the Cura icon, then select “Show Package Contents”.
Then below photo will show you how to find the correct folders. The Cura in Mac OS does have two same paths that may get people confused.
After that, open the Cura, follow the below selection: Settings>Printer>Add Printer…>Non UltiMaker printer>Add a non-neterworked printer>KINGROON. Then you will see the new models has been added successfully.
