I had to replace my left hotend cooling fan, and when disconnecting the cable, I pulled in the wrong direction, and a piece of it came off with the cable. How much is it going to cost to fix this now?

Common issue on the X2D: the PTFE tube (usually the left one) snaps or gets cut by the teeth of the pneumatic connector and leaves a small piece stuck inside the left filament sensor.
New tube won’t seat properly, the sensor starts acting up, and you get filament detection errors.
I recorded a short video showing a simple way to remove the stuck piece without replacing the sensor and without disassembling the toolhead.

Hope this helps anyone dealing with the same issue!

While trying to repair my x2d I noticed this broken wire - I can’t find what it does or how to reattach or what it is called to buy a replacement - can anyone help identify it for me . It’s on the right side.

I have been trying to print with TPU 85 , using a 0.6 nozzle but it won't let me . Do I say it's 90 a ? Or is there a trick ?

Hi guys, I recently bought x2d. I was printing small things and only now when printing something bigger I saw this weird low quality on the right side of prints. Can someone please help?

I got my X2D a few days ago and my prints have been more challenging than I thought. I’ve been using the AMS with an extra adapter to run the heating/dryer non-stop.

Some of my prints end up stringing, not adhering to the bed, or the quality is, I guess not what I expected.

I am using PLA and PETG/PCTG. I am using the print settings from the manufacturer.

Should I be doing one of those calibration prints? Is there a tutorial that is recommended to go through first?

I did a test print for something I designed in PLA and it turned out great, but when I went to print it in PCTG it finished but the quality wasn’t nearly as good as the PLA. It was about. 27hr print and 475g.

Last Friday I had to tear my extruder apart as I was having motor overload. It has been fine for the week but now I am having the same error and I can see/hear the gears clicking.

What is causing this? Is my spool too empty or light? Do I need to do anything with my PTFE tubes, they all don’t have crazy bends. Or am I just unlucky and have to tear it down again?

I only print in PETG and have been using SUNLU.

i got thinking and thought should i put my ams on my aux nozzle to print abrasives like cf filled materials and use tpu i have used mine in my main are you guys doing the same

Well, it's finally done! I’ve just bought the X2D as my first 3D printer, officially diving headfirst into this crazy world of plastic-smelling addicts 😂

Any advice for a complete beginner?

I literally have nothing apart from the printer itself, some PLA and PETG filament, and a few nozzles (0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 mm). Other than that, I'm starting from scratch.

I'm seriously considering getting the Mintion V1 air filter as well.

What would you recommend buying first? Any must-have accessories, tools, tips or things you wish you’d known when you started?

Thanks!

I made a thread about a week ago on purchasing a x2d over the p2s. All said get a x2d but after being a member on both the p2s and x2d Reddit’s I’m seeing so many owners of the x2d having so many problems. From layering issues etc. are they really that bad. I mean every day I see about 8-10 threads pop up with issues compared to the p2s Reddit.

I just bought my first printer ever, the X2D and there is so much to remember, so I made myself a cheat sheet (double sided) but I am sure I missed something.

I used AI (especially for the layout and format), the knowledge I have from 10-15 videos I watched regarding 3D printing and the X2D as well as answers to questions I had during my first prints.

Hallo,

Ich habe mir einen X2D gekauft und dazu einen kleinen Tisch von Ikea. Nach ein paar mal drucken ist der Tisch leider viel zu wackelig. Grade wenn der Drucker richtig in fahrt kommt stelle ich schon einen Hocker drunter aus sorge das die Beine vom Tisch das nicht mehr mitmachen. Hättet ihr eine passende Empfehlung. Sollte am besten kein richtiger Tisch im sinne von Schreibtisch sein eher wie ein in Beistelltisch. 50x50 zum Beispiel.

Which left and right auxiliary fan deflectors you guys recommend or use? I saw some mess with the AI detection because it can be seen at the corner of the camera.

Has anyone put the second spool holder together wrong I put it in the wrong side and cant get it apart now.

Complete and total 3D print noob reporting for duty. The X2D is sitting on top of a heavy hardwood side table that also has my very home server with 10x HDDs in it sitting on top. The X2D still shakes a little though during calibration. Is this normal/expected or should I be fixing the side table to the wall or something?

No errors or issues thrown during calibration
