I've been eagerly awaiting proper reviews of the K1 Max. Thank you for this excellent review. I'm happy to see that Creality is fixing the initial issues of the K1. I print a lot of TPU on textured glass with no surface prep at all. I print the first layer at 75C then turn off the bed heater and the prints are well adhered but pop off easily and cleanly. I was a bit disappointed to see that the PEI surface on the K1 Max was damaged by TPU. Hopefully there will be a print surface that's better for TPU, or maybe a new TPU profile will fix the problem. The K1 Max seems to be improving rapidly but I'll still wait a couple of months in the hope of getting a more polished and debugged printer. There are many little details and they all need to work, but I'm optimistic. I've been without an enclosed 3D printer for a couple of years and I need to print some ABS. The K1 Max could be my one printer for all of my prints.

Maybe I was pulling too hard on the TPU which was the cause of the damage, but yeah if I was going to be doing a lot of TPU printing, then I would either use gluestick, or test out some other surfaces. It will be interesting to see how much it will improve with updates in the next few months. The LiDAR and camera are good hardware, but with good software is what it really needs to be great

I bought this printer in the hope that I would print abs without problems, but in fact everything turned out not quite well - after printing one coil, the native substrate of the table fell into disrepair, spots appeared on it to which the plastic stopped sticking, then error 2564 appeared, then 2564, then E0801, starting to understand and read the user reviews, I came to the conclusion that creality has released a raw product that has problems with the hotend, there are also problems with the extruder, glitches in management, and all this is of course being finalized in the process, but at the moment the user is incurring losses by buying a beautiful defect. Before that, there was ender 3 pro and it was a very positive and productive experience.

I sucked it up and ordered K1 Max. Was initially undecided between P1P and K1. P1P crap screen, open, cloud. K1 small print size, no LIDAR and then I'd have to replace the extruder. P1S is basically P1P but closed and the price in EU not that far away from K1 Max. X1C too expensive for its print size. AMS I don't care about. So I figured I might as well get something that will last a long time. K1 Max. Creality while probably not as great quality as Bambu, they do have a huge following and will make K1 open source in September. This was a really, really hard choice. Thanks to Bambu Labs.

Then they ignored me again, more complaints until they finally emailed me and all it said was "Sorry", that was it, they didn't offer any help to replace the printer. So I ended up with a useless printer which ended up being sold as spares. Really a very bad company.

It's just a little corner at the bottom left, which has been "greyed out" as printing area due the filament cutter. You can easily solve this by printing an adapter to lock it in place and re-configurate the build plate in the printer settings to use the full printing area. That filament cutter is only needed for color/filament changing when using the AMS. Something the K1 does not have. So you could actually lock it in place and configure the whole printing area when you do not have an AMS unit.

IMO the P1S is a better more premium machine. I also had the K1 and its seriously lacking in design and build quality in comparison. No nozzle wiper/poop shoot/filament cutter. no automatic belt tensioner and the belt path on the K1 is so bad they needed to use 9mm pulleys for 6mm belts. Furthermore the gaps in the panels mean i never saw more than 38C internal temp and im not sure if its just the K1 but there is no air filter. Also dont get me started about software, bambu is like a prusa, the creality is just a creality bro. If you dont care about doing some minor upgrades and changing to klipper then the K1 is honestly not that bad. But I returned my K1 as soon as i saw the P1S in person.

They need to work on the slicer more than anything. The supports do WEIRD things, adding supports in area there isn't even anything being supported, and the scan for printer function needs to have a troubleshooting function so you can see where the issue is as to why it doesn't find anything. For instance, is it firewall? Is it router? Is there no printer to connect to (communicate with the app&website-cloud and see if it's offline there) etc. Just not finding anything is as helpful as turning the power breaker off and saying you can't find the right light switch.

Don't know what you're doing but the P1P does NOT run input shaper calibration on each print. Only when you ASK it to do it. The delay time between "print" and "printing" has to do with the slower cpu performance of the P1P as it takes longer to decompress the uploaded file (though this improved dramatically with the current firmwares). But in NO way the delay on the P1P has ANYTHING to do with "doing input shaper" like you're stating.

@@JJShankles Again, no, not really. The ¨P1P does _not_ have the ability to do ANY flow calibrations automatically (no Lidar). It will ONLY do an input shaping test as part of the "Printer Calibration procedure" which you must start manually from _within the LCD panel_ and not as part of a _print job_. The ONLY thing a P1P can "calibrate" as part of the print job is "Bed Leveling" : That part will indeed "Vibrate", as Bambu uses tactile sensors underneath the bed for bed leveling on both the X and P series. The "vibrating" occurs when doing a Bed Level test, where every couple of measurement points, the bed will be "shaken up and down" momentarially to reset said sensors to a baisc correct non-triggered value. This means that I believe you are constantly running BED LEVELING before each printjob, and yes that takes time. But it also is _not_ necessary in my experience. Unless you changed your bed surface inbetween prints, conducted maintenance on the printer inbetween jobs or the new print job uses a significantly different bed temperature, there's zero need to redo bed level test for each print (and the machine allows you to choose to avoid doing that for each print). When not activated, the P1P calibrates NOTHING prior to each print, and the only time spend is doing the unpacking of each send print job, which does _not_ cause any "vibrations" either.

For two colors an IDEX system is way better due to much less waste! Also the AMS is a very pricy option, especially since many mod this thing because of the spool limitations (So you initially buy parts with that AMS that many don't use at the end). So it's not everything so shiny! But at least it is on the market! Other than a multi-toolhead option like the Prusa XL which is still not available (and even more expensive). Hope that Creality, Sovol and others do think about an alternative to that AMS, especially Sovol since they often respect and support the open source community.

@@hassosigbjoernson5738 I would say the main reason I think its so good is because the integration and the filament cutter. For this type of system where it has just one nozzle, being able to cut the tip is a really helpful thing. I had a mmu2s and I could never get a good print out of it because it would just keep failing because of the tips. Once you get the spools down, like I just use sunlu filament, it works like a charm. I've only had one failed print on the Bambu because of the poop chute clogging up, while I've had tons of failures with the mmu. I would say if you want to print lots of colors this is the best option. if you only print like 2 colors or print like pva or something a idex is great! And if you want to print with both multi material and color it looks like the prusa xl will be the option. But definitely ams is a great multicolor option.

Hi JJ, Have you been able to view and/or edit any g-code files generated by the Creality Print slicer? It looks like Creality have created their own version of g-code for the K1/K1 Max. I can't view any of the slicer's output files in any g-code text viewer/editor, e.g. Notepad++. Cheers, Howard

Do we need to pay the premium tier in creality cloud in order to watch remotely from the camera and control the print(pause & stop)? I can't find any definitive answer about that and although the app is a mess I want to check my prints when I'm outside.
@JJShankles
Жыл бұрын
I just downloaded the app to check, and the premium just includes some premium STL files, and their cloud slicer is faster maybe. In the normal app you can control the printer from anywhere, but the camera feed only works when your phone is on the same wifi as the printer. I turned off wifi on my phone and was still able to start prints, but the camera wouldn't load.

@JJShankles coming from a CR10 smart pro when I was able to remotely control, power off and have a look from work was gold. Saved me a couple of times and it was peace of mind . Excluding that feature from the K1 kinda beats the purpose. Hope the will add it in the future or at least open-source this thing to add it via klipper.

Nearly every review of this printer shows multi color print(s)... are those fake and implied but not actual? Everyone is gassing on about how awesome this printer is compared to the Bambu, but no one is talking about the white elephant in the room. That AMS of the Bambu printer that allows for multi-color and multi-material for the same print. How does this printer compare in that regard? Compare apples to apples not apples to oranges.

I don't get it why creality makes so many mistakes right now. Lidar which is "ok", which is more an accessory then, closed firmware. Most importantly I don't get why they build a moving bed. Having the bed at the bottom constantly and a moving gantry reduces vibrations a lot. They should all follow a voron design imo.

Bambu Lab also violates open source licensing, and they make it very difficult to print if you opt not to send your files to their Chinese server and sign away all your intellectual property rights to them - either fiddle with a tiny micro SD card inserted into the top of the display or print through the LAN but the dynamic IP address keeps changing and must be reentered frequently. The K1 series have a USB-A port on the front panel for a standard thumb drive and the static IP address is only entered once. Still, the Creality should have standard full featured Klipper and Fluidd.

@@Liberty4Ever This is simply incorrect. They are 100% compliant with the Prusa Slicer license, and we've no reason to believe they arent with their closed source firmware. As for intellectual rights, I have no idea why people keep saying this. Like, where is this conspiracy coming from? I feel like people just keep making things up about Bambulab and it does them a great disservice given they are being the change in China that people have been wanting to see. They bring innovation and honor licenses and people hate them for it. Like I totally get not liking the cloud thing, but the other accusations are wild.
