Thank you, I have been trying for hours to figure out how to do the firmware update. I am doing a test print now but will try this method to update it afterwards.

@GregCobb Год назад

I looked for days before I found the features I want at a good price. Out of the box it was ready to go. It is quite the upgrade from the 3D V2. I would love a larger build plate. At the time this will work great. It is a consumer level printer with commercial features and solid build. This is a good video, thank you.

@AmanSharma-fh1uj Год назад

It works good for me. The hardest part is to get the model off the build-plate as it has really good adhesion. Also, removing rafts is another issue. Any suggestions?😁

@Fanalytics 3 года назад

Really good review. You are a competent engineer.

You all prolly dont care but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid forgot my account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me.

@Rex Alonzo thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@dexterishaan2093 2 года назад

@Rex Alonzo It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thank you so much you saved my account!

@rexalonzo921 2 года назад

@Dexter Ishaan No problem :D

Awesome video

@judd_s5643 Год назад

I ordered one of these (Dec 22) from Amazon and the upper right rear gantry was broken in half upon arrival via UPS. There was no apparent damage to the box.

@ShebanFPV 2 года назад

Thanks a lot for the great and detailed review! I have a question, can it print flexible materials (TPU)?

@Dombi3D 2 года назад

Yes it can. It has direct extruder motors, so it works good. You still need to tune the filaments though, but that is normal with all filaments.

@joakimrasmussengoin2487 3 года назад

Waiting patiently for the Prusa IDEX 👌🏻

@shotbyarian 3 года назад

when will it get released? any information on the specifications?

@markm49 Год назад

How’s that going for ya?

@ElectroPrints 3 года назад

I had exact same problem with the rails not being perpendicular , is it really that hard to ship the product with straight rails ?

@crepps Год назад

In the setup instructions, there is a tool that come with it that aligns the rails and it shows you how to do it. I didn't have to do what this video shows.

@jivinhipcat 3 года назад

I’ve been looking to upgrade my setup and NEED my printer(s) to be 1) dual extruder, 2) auto bed leveling, 3) higher temp capable such as nylon 4) and my 1st layer is almost always a feature of my products, so precision and surface options such as glass or textured build plates are essential. Do you have any recommendations that could help me out? Also, really good video! Thanks for that.

@MBrewah04 3 года назад

I have some, depends on your budget.

@jivinhipcat 3 года назад

@@MBrewah04 thanks! I decided to go the Prusa route. I THINK I can make the MMU2S work for what I need at this point, and if I can get them to do half of what they are supposed to be capable of then that’ll be a nice bonus.

@jochemajendouz9271 3 года назад

@@MBrewah04 I need the first 3 options Hipcat needs + I'd like the printer to be closed off. I want to start printing with my daughter who's ten, so easy usage would also be nice. My budget is around 750 euro's max. What are my options?

@MBrewah04 3 года назад

@@jochemajendouz9271 I would probably stick with the printer in the video with your budget. Its hard to find dual extrusion and fully enclosed for a better price. I would also stay with an IDEX machine over a fixed dual nozzle. Once properly calibrated it offers more features. If this I your first print, a single nozzle would be better to learn on.

@jochemajendouz9271 3 года назад

@@MBrewah04 thank you for your answer. So idex printing of nylon with supports is out of the question for this budget?

@abdussabur5217 2 года назад

Have any option to use only one extruder in this printer!

@Dombi3D 2 года назад

Sure! You can use it in single mode!

@MrHristoB 2 года назад

700 euro kit with crooked gantry should go exactly where it came from!!! Thanks for pointing this out!!! Another chinese cloner in the "Do Not Go there" list. Maybe the QC department was on lunch brake when they packed this one up 🙂
