As of March 8, 2023, there are 19 samplers available in AUTOMATIC1111. They are:

* **Euler a:**
    * Strengths: Fast and easy to use.
    * Weaknesses: Not as accurate as some of the newer samplers.
* **Euler:**
    * Strengths: More accurate than Euler a.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than Euler a.
* **LMS:**
    * Strengths: Designed to produce sharp and detailed images.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than Euler and Euler a.
* **Heun:**
    * Strengths: More stable than Euler.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than Euler.
* **DPM2:**
    * Strengths: Faster and more accurate than Euler and Euler a.
    * Weaknesses: Not as stable as Heun.
* **DPM2 a:**
    * Strengths: More accurate than DPM2.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than DPM2.
* **DPM++ 2S a:**
    * Strengths: Faster and more accurate than DPM2 and DPM2 a.
    * Weaknesses: Not as stable as Heun.
* **DPM++ 2M:**
    * Strengths: More accurate than DPM++ 2S a.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than DPM++ 2S a.
* **DPM fast:**
    * Strengths: Faster than DPM.
    * Weaknesses: Less accurate than DPM.
* **DPM adaptive:**
    * Strengths: Designed to adapt to the complexity of the image being generated.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than DPM fast.
* **LMS Karras:**
    * Strengths: Faster and more accurate than LMS.
    * Weaknesses: Not as stable as Euler.
* **DPM2 Karras:**
    * Strengths: Faster and more accurate than DPM2.
    * Weaknesses: Not as stable as Heun.
* **DPM2 a Karras:**
    * Strengths: More accurate than DPM2 Karras.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than DPM2 Karras.
* **DPM++ 2S a Karras:**
    * Strengths: Faster and more accurate than DPM++ 2S a.
    * Weaknesses: Not as stable as Heun.
* **DPM++ 2M Karras:**
    * Strengths: More accurate than DPM++ 2S a Karras.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than DPM++ 2S a Karras.
* **DDIM:**
    * Strengths: Designed to produce images with high-quality textures.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than the other samplers.
* **PLMS:**
    * Strengths: Designed to produce images with a painterly style.
    * Weaknesses: Slower than the other samplers.
