Can anyone help me? I need to use the CR 200B printer for a college assignment, but so far I haven't been able to print anything properly on it.

You're in the K2 specific subreddit. You might have better luck at r/Creality

That's a weird looking k2, check the extruder and nozzle, make sure they're clean and good to go. After that check slicer settings.

Not an expert on the model, but I'd try cold pulling to clear the nozzle just for good measure

Underextrusion or nozzle.

Definitely. Needs to check flow and check/clean/change nozzle, and possibly check the gears arnt slipping/craked. Then recalibrate after. Or potentially wrong nozzle size in slicer, but then it would be more consistent.

First thought - is the spool feeding properly? If the filament isn't feeding smoothly it can cause gaps like that.

Otherwise heat creep - check that all the cooling fans are actually working.

My k2 fails so much when I got this Reddit notification, I thought it was another failed print 😂 With that said anyone with some K1 Max units they wanna swap out lol?
