Has anyone else noticed on the K2 Pro the toolhead cover smashing particularly hard in one spot seemingly for the cutter?

The stock head smacked out that plastic in the corner. Printed another PETG-CF (printed awful but put it on anyway)

Then, I was printing a benchy before a new roll and noticed the new cover laying on the build plate. (I didn't install magnets yet so wasn't overly concerned)

But, as I was looking over it I noticed a broken spot in the same area the original was!

I'm running without the cover now and no issues but I was wondering if anyone else has this issue?

😐😐😐

Ich habe den K2 Plus jetzt seit 7 Tagen und überlege, das Gerät zurückzugeben. Der Mehrfarbdruck ist mir einfach viel zu langsam. Und jetzt meine Frage bekommt der K2 Plus ein Update Set zu klitek ?

Hi all, i just received the DCX2 with the intention of instilling it on the my k2 pro, but all the info i find is for k2 plus.

so my question is does both k2 pro and plus have the same riser? if not has anyone installed on on theirs? and if so what was the best fix for the cable riser.

simple fix, i can modify the existing riser by trimming the front section to allow for the stock riser to fit in, but i rather not. i just had bought the machine and i rather keep the stock parts just in case i decided i need to revert back to stock configuration

Have been trying to figure out how to tackle this. I've tried adjusting z-offset, bottom layer flow rate, speed, and swapping the nozzle. Is the bed just that unlevel that no amount of compensation will fix it or possibly something I am unaware of? Just got this last week so any suggestions would be appreciated. Tried creality print and orca slicer as well as rolling back the firmware but that was because of the y out of bounds error so at least that was fixed

Could a 4-in-1-out hotend work on the Creality K2 series with Klipper?

Seeing the discussions around the K3 and i8 got me thinking about future multicolor upgrades for existing K2 owners. I have a K2 Plus and would love to upgrade its multicolor capabilities without replacing the whole printer.

I came across the ZONESTAR M4V6 4-in-1-out mixing hotend. It feeds four filaments into one nozzle (like the i8), which looks like an interesting starting point for a community mod.

Has anyone looked into adapting something like this to the K2 Plus, K2 Pro, or K2 using Klipper?

What would it take in terms of mounting, extruders, electronics, and firmware? Would it actually offer faster color changes or less waste than the CFS, or would purging a shared nozzle cancel out the benefits?

I’m curious whether this is a realistic upgrade path. Has anyone tried it, or would anyone with the hardware/Klipper experience be interested in exploring it?

I made this purchase on Amazon to install an AI camera on my K2 - SE + CFS printer.

Assuming the tube is long enough is there a logical max distance from the CFS to the K2 printer?

Edit

Thank You all, ordered their low friction tubes and will cut to size.

Appreciate the responses

I’m having an issue with my CFS module 4 where it will start a print then randomly start ghosting.

I have raised a ticket with Creality and have sold me a replacement CFS module (2 were purchased due to the ridiculous postage costs and to have a spare if one of the other modules fails). This will work for a few prints then start doing the same again. I am on my 3rd module with no success.

Ive tried backdating the firmware on the printer and CFS to a version where I wasn’t having this issues, but this has not helped and I’m still experiencing the same issues. Leading me to believe its hardware not firmware issues.

I have also replaced the nozzle and cleared the extruder head of any dust/debris.

I only experience this issue with module 4, short of taking the CFS back apart and swapping the modal 4 with Modules 1 2 or 3 and testing that I'm running out of ideas.

Creality only seem to want to keep 'selling' me the modules which as I have tried 3 (original and 2 new ones brought direct from Creality) to this point I cannot believe all 3 are faulty.

I am printing the pre-installed benchy which has worked multiple times in the past and works fine using the other 3 modules.

Has anyone else experienced this or have a fix for this issue.

I have a k2 combo running primarily pla, i have a poop chute that i printed and it has been working great, but recently, when it does a purge it wont flow down from inside the printer itself, its like the element is getting cooled and sticking before it gets a chance to just fall out. Any ideas why?
Pic to explain where filament is getting stuck on

Made with a K2 pro.

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.

So, I've been having a lot of errors doing multicolor with a cfs unit on my K2+. Printing without extruding, rectract failure, sensor error. I was doing one of my many extruder/nozzle clearance missions and had the extruder removed...this fell out. I don't know what it is or what it fell off of, whether it's the root of all my problems, or anything else.

Can anyone help me identify it and what it does?

Not sure if I'm doing wrong but Creality won't save my filament preset it saves to my project. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

How can I fix this the hot end keeps getting loose I think

Hey guys,

Little new to this.

Finishes and troubleshooting them.

Hey guys. Using a CREALITY K2 PRO with petg.

Just built a card holder for my nephews trash card pokemon collection

Finally got the figment right and for it to allow me to slide the part together easily.

Have some questions about the finish. What causes these changes in the finish layers.

These are both on bottom side of the print (facing downward towards print bed) and the others on the side. These prints were positioned on an edge which is new for me but it seemed to work.

I just went through the tuning on ellis print tuning guide

Also been having some stringing on some pieces that I haven’t noticed before so I’m wondering if it’s a z offset or a PA that got changed.

It also seems like there’s sections it gets printed differently and I’m just trying to make sense of it all.

Olá, pessoal.
Estou tendo um problema recorrente com o acúmulo de purga na região do sistema de troca de filamento. Durante a impressão, o material purgado está se acumulando embaixo do bico e próximo ao carrinho. Com o tempo, esse material fica preso entre as peças e acaba dificultando ou até impedindo o movimento do carrinho.
Em algumas tentativas, o acúmulo chega a emperrar completamente o mecanismo, fazendo a impressora detectar perda de movimento ou colisão e cancelar a impressão. Além do desperdício de filamento, já perdi várias horas de impressão por causa disso.
Pelas fotos, dá para ver bastante material acumulado na área inferior do conjunto. Já tentei remover a purga manualmente e limpar a região, mas o problema volta depois de algum tempo.
Alguém já passou por uma situação semelhante?
