Service tutorial Ender - 5 S1 leveling and printing

[@simonburke6681]

Should not have to adjust the z offset at start of every print. Why on earth home using z limit switch instead of cr touch probe? Fix the firmware please, this machine is junk as it stands and will not keep bed level settings.

[@JeefMcQueef]

Agree. I am not even using mine and it’s 2 weeks old. It’s a struggle to get anything to print. Also the card reader did not work out of the box

[@simonburke6681]

Return it while you can and ask for the model without z switch. The issue on this model can be fixed with the modification found at printables webpage: ender-5-s1-auto-bed-leveling-fix by Kevin Cooper. This should not be necessary tho and I can't believe they are still selling with the known issue. Problem with the fix/ mod is that you need to custom compile marlin firmware or edit klipper config for different offsets with the CR Touch mod and this should not be necessary. I am quite happy with the printer using this mod, klipper pad, and enclosure but not happy with the way this model has been shipped out.@@JeefMcQueef

I’m dealing with same thing how do I take sonic pad off?

[@JediSymon]

So when you say "adjust the Z offset..." Exactly what do you mean? Adjust to what or based on what? How much should I adjust in which way? That "instruction" is REALLY VAGUE.

[@johannesbrahms2718]

not vague at all. You place the paper that came with the printer in the print surface and then you adjust the z offset with up and down arrows so that the paper just is somehow difficult to move but not very much

[@jimromine2917]

At time 4:55 in video after printing has started why adjust the z axis? " Adjust the offset value according to the first layer printing" makes no sense to me. Explain

You can clearly see at the end that the bed is not leveled...

[@MacheteBoB]

that printer has level issues for sure

[@id8tionist]

q. I notice when I level by hand then auto level... it makes a large gap in the space. It is no longer leveled/spaced correctly. what am i doing wrong?

will be trying this on sat when my printer arrives

[@spi-killazinc9750]

How'd this printer work out for you? I have two and have had nothing but problems 😅

[@williamhaynes7089]

@@spi-killazinc9750 - the auto level never has worked, but i just manually align it.. Other than that it prints great.

[@PPsmaurf]

The switch attached to the z-axis motor does not exist in the 5s1 sold in Korea. Is there a difference between the old and new models? I'm curious about the switch next to the z-axis motor in all the advertising videos.

[@DJProPlusMax]

Yes, they have an earlier version with a 3D printed fan duct and Z limit switch, whilst the newer one has an injection molded fan duct and no z limit switch.

[@HaidelBoumOfficial]

Im having a lot of trouble with printing the boat. The stuff doesnt stick to the board and he just drags a lot of filament behind himself when it starts printing because its not sticking

[@austinshackles549]

I had a lot of hassle following the book that came with the printer. Watching the video, at about 1:03 is where he's using the up/down arrows to set the Z offset so the paper just drags between the nozzle and the bed. That's the key step I was missing, and now it works.

[@joebyrneMensrights]

Thanks leveling worked good . Printing the boat now . Guess I got a fully functional machine , It was easy

[@greasymonkey4thebanana]

200 likes you guys are super mean.

[@austinshackles549]

having watched this, I now have the levelling set up... would've helped if the manual that came with it was more detailed. The key point is using the up/down arrows on the panel to set the Z offset in position 1, before touching the levelling screws. Having got the correct gap at the center, it's then easy to set the 4 corners using the screws, and now it's printing as it should. Yay!

[@rotebeete1267]

The whole bed leveling procedure with the Ender 5 S1 is just painfull and close to impossible. The recent firmware doesnt work either, incase someone thought he could fix the autoleveling with an update... 🤦‍♂️😂 Well, im smarter now, my next 3D printer wont carry a Creality logo, thats for sure.

site lamentable ;même le service messagerie ne fonctionne pas ,les mails ne sont jamais reçu ni évidement répondus

I totally agree the Autolevel and z homing is not working, complete failure...

[@adamtempleton5995]

It's because the x axis has a slight twist in it. It is a common problem with these machines and they won't adress it at all. I have 2 of them, both junk.

[@Motofbr]

@@adamtempleton5995 How exactly does the Z flow bend? Any chance of this being fixed?

save yourself the time and energy and look somewhere else. This guy is a troll. He is showing you the true fire way on how to mess up your board. I would love to use profanity for this statement but I just want to make sure people see this and I don't get my comment removed.
