I copied the title style of the other subsections. Would you prefer me to remove it?

P.S. One still needs to install dependencies via pip namely requests and psutil (the requirement for the latter could/should be removed but atm it's mandatory) for this feature to work.

If you already run an instance of [orca](https://github.com/plotly/orca) on your network, there's no need to install it.
You can simply point to it in your Python code.

```python
import plotly
# specify URL to Orca's endpoint
plotly.io.orca.config.server_url = "http://localhost:9091"
```

Note that for this to work, you still need to first `requests` and `psutil`.
