Flux.1 Dev ControlNet Canny · MFlux Q4

This is a Q4 MFlux version of FLUX.1-dev.

MFlux runs the latest state-of-the-art generative image models locally on your Mac in native MLX. MFlux is open source and free.

MFlux versions of FLUX.1-dev

Converted with MFlux 0.22.0 on 2026-10-09.

Standard MFlux quantization uses MLX affine quantization (4-bit) across the text encoder, transformer and VAE. The quantization level is stored in the weights, so no --quantize flag is needed.

Usage

Install MFlux

uv tool install --upgrade mflux

Generate an image using FLUX.1-dev Q4:

mflux-generate-controlnet \
  --model mflux-community/flux-1-dev-controlnet-canny-mflux-q4 \
  --base-model dev-controlnet-canny \
  --controlnet-image-path canny.png \
  --prompt "A puffin standing on a cliff" \
  --width 1024 \
  --height 1024 \
  --seed 42 \
  --output image.png

The weights are downloaded from this repo on first use. To keep a local copy instead:

hf download mflux-community/flux-1-dev-controlnet-canny-mflux-q4 --local-dir ./flux-1-dev-controlnet-canny-mflux-q4

then pass --model ./flux-1-dev-controlnet-canny-mflux-q4.
