How to Make Dual Color 3D Prints on the Flashforge Adventurer 5M
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- I've gotten a few questions about how to print two or more colors on a single print on the Flashforge Adventurer 5M. It's a very easy process and it's as easy as doing a regular filament change.

I am enjoying my 5M and happy to find your channel!
I am currently printing the Obi-Wan lightsaber as my first PETG print.
Wouldn’t have tried it if I hadn’t come across your channel and it’s helping me learn a lot about the printer.
Keep ‘em coming!
Why does petg mena
Mean
Always happy to follow along AD5M content
Great video and tutorial. No useless talk. No one needs to know how you got into 3D printing, how long you've been doing it or what you like or don't like to print. Right to the point, thank you!
1 - Pause printing
2 - Cut the filament
3 - Change filament
4 - Continue printing
Total - 5 min video lol
Loving my 5M. Might start doing videos as well. Finding so many tricks!
Simple and efficient, thanks! I have the Pro version and tested it without issues.
For what it's worth, and your mileage may vary, but I had success by cutting the old filament, and force feeding new filament directly behind that and holding pressure until it was through the extruder.
That is how I would want to try it too. Looking into getting a 5M as a second printer.
I've done that too.
Love your channel mate, bought a Flashforge Adventurer 5M today and loving it, your videos are super helpful. Thanks from England!
Thanks a lot. More to come!
Just got the flashforge 5m really loving.
I just got a 5pro and your videos are great for information and new ideas of what I can do with it!
finalmente he comprado la misma máquina! estoy ansioso de que me llegue. sigo de cerca todos tus videos. Un saludo!
I'm not a pro or anything, but IIRC you can do a color change in the slicer gcode. It'll pause and purge and all that for you, then resume.
I got a 5M Pro, loving it. it's so much better than my last Ender 3.
Thanks, Jeremy! I've PRO version, and I don't know all secrets yet this printer. It was very usefull for me.
Glad I could help!
It's crazy how much filament it extrudes during swaps. I've got it timed pretty well now, I just wait about 5-10 seconds and then insert my new filament. I haven't done a dual color print though! Neat stuff.
Hopefully that can be edited somewhere in the machine settings.
would be cool to be able to program it to ask us to swap when we reached a specific layer / part.
I haven't tried it on this printer yet (or with OrcaSlicer since I just started using it along with this printer), but I know most slicers let you insert a gcode pause on any layer you want, so it's not random chance. You stop and change colors exactly when and where you want to.
Great video, thanks. Would be great if you could put together a video on how to use FUZZY SKIN in Orca. I find FUZZY SKIN to be a great way to add some detail (at various levels) to a print. Hope you'll consider doing a deep dive into how best to use this to help your prints look better. Thanks.
Great channel. I bought a 5m for my 8yr old son and he watches all your videos. We really like your spool holder- can you share the design?
Thanks for the compliment! You can find the spool holder at this link. Scroll down the page and you'll see it. wiki.flashforge.com/en/knowledge_corner/printer-mod-and-diy
May I have the link for the side filament holder?
Very good video thanks!
Спасибо за видео! Оно действительно очень полезно как для новичков так и для профи. Подписался на вас!
So what speed should it be at ? When I turned my to the max it wouldn’t print correctly
Marlon firmware has this feature implemented much better. The firmware i am running will keep the hot end and bed at temp and will prompt me to purge teh filament. It does maybe 100mm and asks if you want more, if not it restarts the print. It has screen prompts the entire way to assist. That's the beauty of open source and upgradable firmware. (when I mean upgradable, I mean as simple as downloading a file, putting it on an SD card and turning on the printer. No cryptic lines of code to edit , compile then send to a printer.) , still this printer and Klipper has my interest.....I love tinkering with my Creality printers, but sometimes I just want to print.
I am not sure if you are at all interested in any other printers but Phrozen has launched their kickstarter for the arco might be worth making a video on if you are!
I've seen that. It's good to see another company with a AMS-like system in the works.
While it's paused, is there a limit on how many times you could feed it before hitting resume
What if you don’t purge and just let the color change fall in the print?
Mine turned up today!
Have fun!
Could you make a video about the sequential printing of multiple models. Because AD4 and many other bedslingers are limited by the rails height so that you can't actually print sequentially the models that are higher than 20mm. Can AD5 print for example 4 copies of some tall model?
Really good question, because trying something like that is what led me to find differential cooling issues with my bedslinger printer. Ended up redesigning the parts cooling system entirely. With the OEM coolers, printing multiples led to the head knocking into layers that hadn't been getting enough cooling and had built up too high as the print progressed.
Love my 5M. Did you make the spool attachment for the filament?
Thanks for this video, works fine with my 5M pro but when it pauses the head park in the back right side, I wonder why.
Yes, same on my Pro. Wish there was a way to change it to use the front left position. That position definitely gives you better access. Does anyone know if there's a way to change this position?
Just use gcode to retract the filament enough to avoid cutting it.. also with slicer you can pause on layer ..
Amen
Did you put any pressure at the color transition point to see how solidly the print mated after the pause?
Nope. I just let the machine do its thing.
I wonder if you can do that in the gcode
Can you help explain better using the miss minute you did? I have a similar project upcoming and want to be able to do the same outcome
You can use my video on printing Hueforge art to help you out. ruclips.net/video/fzQHF6wYZZM/видео.html . It's essentially the same method as printing the Miss Minutes clock in multiple colors.
Hey I saw they released a Klipper firmware update for this printer. Have you tried it out yet? I'm over flashprint.
No, I haven't. I don't know how to install Klipper and I haven't found a guide on how to do it for this particular printer.
Definately extrudes too much Filament. Can't wait to get into the config files and change that nonsense. The 5M seems to be extruding about a 1.5 meters of filament. I need to weigh it on the next reload. It's excessive!
Please let us all know how we can tweak that!
Those the software that comes with this printer allow you to insert a PAUSE in any of the layers like BAMBU LAB Studio does when slicing an STL file ?
You can do that in Orcaslicer. You can right click on the layer slider and add a pause at different layers.
@@FigureFeedbackdo you happen to have the link to download the orca slicer with the printer included? I tried to download it from GitHub, but it somehow doesn't run and my computer marks it as a malicious file.
I downloaded it straight from GitHub as well. Windows wouldn't install it automatically for me either, but I told it to install anyway.
I tried doing that and it did not work I even told orca slicer it was a filament change and checked the manual filament change option also added to filament change gcode the M600 modifier no dice
I'm hoping Chameleon updates availability to this printer before I decide to jump onboard.
With a second nozzle, purging could be reduced. Just swap nozzle and filament, small purge.
The spool of yellow just...disappeared. lol
better write manually pause in the g code
Yes you can do this but you can’t tell the printer to stop at certain points and pause for you, you have to sit there watch it and time it if you need a specific color in a specific part of the print I’m not happy with it
You can assign a specific stopping point in OrcaSlicer by right clicking on the layer slider and selecting the pause option wherever you'd like.
@@FigureFeedbackplease make a video with the orca slicer, tq very much
@@uliz17 There is now an Orca fork made for this printer .. it's in a newer video.
