Sorry it took so long to get back to you. What slicer are you using? I use the anycubic slicer that came with the printer. I run factory settings, and really just change the temp on the filament section depending on what filament I use. If that doesn’t work, try resetting the slicer or reloading it. Let me know if that helps

I like this video and am considering this printer as an upgrade to my Elegoo Neptune 3max with a .6 nozzle. I will say that I cannot recommend elegoo filament. It constantly binds up due to the winding in the corner of the spool. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to check on a print in the morning to find it paused because it is bound up.

@TheLastLayer111
@TheLastLayer111 26 күн бұрын
Yes, I use hair spray or adhesion promoter on all my beds, including on my bambu printer. For me its not worth the potential of losing a print 3/4 of the way through. A subscriber mentioned to me to try nano polymer adhesive. I did and it worked very well, better than hair spray. Its a little pricy, but you dont need much and can print multiple times without re-applying. I have not had any problems or had any bed adhesion issues since i tried it.

I have had it for months now and I only have 50 hrs of print time on it because I have no successful prints except for little trinkets. The bed level is terrible, prints loosen, …, can not get a correct first layer down (will be doing a mod to it in the hopes that that will fix my issue for the bed leveling and then go from there). I am new at 3D printing and I realize that this is not the printer I shouldd have begun with but it’s what I have on my work bunch. Did you have to do any mechanical adjustment to you K2M? I see you are using Anycubic slicer. I am so bummed out with this printer but I am happy for you.

Wow.. sorry to hear that. A few others reached out to me and said something similar. That tells me they may not have the best quality control.

One thing I always do is add some type of adhesion promoter to the bed , typically hairspray or lately Ive been using Nano polymer. In my opinion, this gives you a little “wiggle” room on that first layer. Good luck, let me know how it turns out

thanks for being honest, i am definatly buying it for my new project. The spool i have had that same issue as well on the kobra 2 but most of the time its how the company that made the roll had it rolled onto the spool, so what i did is i cut the tubbing half way of its length away from the alert switch for run out. So when the filmant runs out and goes up the tube its easier to grab and put back through the filament run out detector, honestly once i get this printer i will just put the spool on the top instead of the sides and do some extra modding for the filament run out to be used on top of the printer.
