 Bambu Labs, while designed with their printers in mind, have some excellent references and troubleshooting how-tos that apply in most cases to all printers, and focuses around Bambu Studio as the slicer, from which Orca is based so lots applies. In case related directly to the printer most everything can be interpolated to the N4 series accordingly.
