13:50 - that should be a hour Longer! not an hour less 🤦♂ Can you tell I dont script out any of my videos 😂
could i checkout the profiles you used?
I cannot find that galaxy black filament anywhere on Ella goose website. Are you sure it is not made by a different manufacture? Or have they just not released yet?
Loving my Neptune 4 Max so far! Printed out a Flatbox and a CherryBox leverless controller from Printables and they both came out amazing using your OrcaSlicer profiles! Thank you so much for the great content!
Heck yeah! Excited to hear that and glad to hear they worked good!
@@johannesbatzersame
What tier are the profiles on? Or where can I find them?
How do I get the orca slicer profiles? I am about to get my neptune 4 max this week and I wanna get started on the right foot.
I have the same profile but the prints are ugly my I have to put more slow?
I'm glad you mentioned the z offset issue, I'm having the same and thought I was going crazy
Since Elegoo announced the Giga with larger nozzles, I'm optimistic that they will be available at least by next Spring when that's supposed to be available. I have a 4Pro and was considering adding this, I'm using the Neptune for rough drafts before doing slow AF final prints in my BCN W50 and have had a ton of issues with supports, stringing and under extrusion so I think I'll be waiting for now to see the status of larger nozzles and sorting out slicer issues. I dislike Cura and will have to look into Orca, unfortunately the BCN also uses a skinned Cura and it's been hard to find an alternative that lets me do enough tweaking to supports to ensure successful prints and can support the IDEX on the BCN. Thanks for these reviews, it's super helpful to sort through all the options!
What are you make if you don’t mind me asking and are they all one tone
That Magneto Samurai mask was INSANE!! I'm sure it'll be beautiful when painted, but it looks incredible in that Galaxy Black! Wow!! Did Elegoo ever get back with you on the 0.6 nozzle issue? It's been 9 months, so I would assume they've got them to market by now, but you never know. Looks like Orca was the way to go with that printer, too. Amazing difference in the Silverhand statue between the 2 slicers. I'm gonna guess the "other" printer you compared it to in the video was an X1 Carbon, given the stats. Pretty comparable results. I thought I wanted a core X/Y for my first printer, but this bed slinger is impressive enough it might have changed my mind. Especially given the price point.
My Neptune 4 Pro has been running almost nonstop since I got it probably six weeks ago. It's great. The only issue was the LED on the print head dimmed to almost nonexistent after 100 hours of ABS prints directly over a 110 C print bed. I'm waiting for Elegoo to make a Neptune 4 Pro Max with steel rollers on steel rails. I think that will be a significant improvement for print quality and reliability on a fast large format printer that is accelerating a relatively heavy print bed.
Elegoo should have used a Volcano compatible nozzle for all of the Neptune 4 series. They all print the same materials at the same speed. Making proprietary high flow nozzles when there is already a standard is not customer oriented. It's not as bad as some of the proprietary stunts Qidi has pulled that convinced me not to buy any more of their printers (I bought seven), but it's still needless market complexity and hassle that we don't need.
Hello, I also want to buy a neptune 4 but there are a lot negatieve reviews. What slicer to you use?
@@nanneborn4523 - I use PrusaSlicer. I loved being able to send G code directly to the Neptune 4 Pro via the Fluidd web browser tab rather than previous printers where I had to load the G code onto a micro SD card that was then plugged into the printer in the most awkward position imaginable. Then I started sending the G code to the Neptune 4 Pro directly from PrusaSlicer. It's as easy as 2D printing a document from LibreOffice. Why did it take so long before Klipper made this happen? I'm now a huge Klipper fan.
Elegoo is so weird, they are so fast with releasing hardware but the firmware and software is always needing to be upgraded or fixing somehow. It is like they barely test it before releasing it😂
4.8 Cura is fine and they have new firmware for the 4 and 4 Pro get the Bed leveled an let it ripppppp
Yes Support and Firmware very Bad ...
@@umutkucuk7213thats correct i return my neptune 4 max
i use prusaslicer on the neptune 4 and no issues. idk why they even bother with elegoo cura
I think cura is not ready for high speed printer.For example, speed is not adjustable for the first layer after support. You need to slow down whole top and bottom layers. If elegoo provide software support neptune 4 pro will become one of the best printers.
That Galaxy Black PLA has produced some amazing prints for me too. It's just uncanny how good stuff printed with it looks!
I just ordered 5 more rolls of it 🤣😂 I’m obsessed
@@UncleJessy It makes for a GREAT filament to print things for the printer because it pretty closely matches the long extrusions that the bed rides on!
Got a link for the filament you used?
Odd elegoo told me its not for sale and i dont see it on the website, how did you get it?
I also have this printer.
Been having the same issue with the Z offset, and a myriad of other issues.
The Z offset issue actually scratched up my print surface real bad, and I had to buy a replacement.
This machine with that issue and the complete lack of profiles or info to make your own is truly not ready for release.
The amount of hours and filament I have wasted to tune it, only to realize that no matter how well I tune it, I still have to be there to manually adjust the bed and Z offset at the start of every print, and if I’m not fast enough then I have to cancel the print and start over.
I’m really disappointed. The hardware seems good, but this shouldn’t have been released, it’s half baked at best and a huge headache.
I want it to get fixed, I want it to get good, but I’d suggest to others that it’s not ready yet so maybe hold out on buying until you hear these teething issues are fixed.
Thank your for this feedback
Have they fixed this with a firmware update?
Is it ok to buy plus or max now ?
@@seaofcuriosity I have been running mine for a week now and the prints are nice.
@@MrDixonSyder this will be my first printer ever. So i want to be sure. Many reviewers are having all sorts of strange problems.
My last 3D printer was an Ender 3 & im in the market to start again. How far 3D printing has come is incredible 🤯
I love seeing all the things i no longer have to deal with ... Your issues with Z offset tweaking with each print, powering off the printer between prints, stringing... So much stuff i dont have to deal with since getting my "other" printer. When i saw that klipper screen and heard you needed to add gcide to get the end stops to work, i shuddered with PTSD from those days.
For anyone wondering: maximum quality print / resolution / layer height for the Neptune 4 max in the Elegoo Cura software is 0.12mm. Profiles are 0.12 High quality, 0.16 Normal Quality, 0.20 has 3 profiles: Fine Quality, Fine strength and Fine fast, 0.24 Medium Quality and finally 0.28 Draft Quality.
The only issue I've run into with the fan module is with some tree supports on larger prints, printing at speed, they can flex and get caught on the fan. I ended up taking the module off and slowed the print speed down to about 225mm/s and haven't seen any negative results.
Great video! Which firmware version are you using on your machine? Also, would you be willing to share your Orca Slicer settings for the N4 Max, please?
I 2nd this
What you said about having to adjust the z-offset constantly made me instantly perk up. I've been having a similar (maybe the same?) issue on my Neptune 4 Pro and it's driving me absolutely nuts. I'll get one or two good prints out of it and then it seems like I just can't get the first layer to work at all even on the most basic print. Check the bed leveling and everything is fine, but if I adjust the z-offset manually beyond what it should be, it seems to help. Really hope they get out a fix for whatever that issue is. I'm going to try the power-cycling tip for sure and see if it helps.
I thought I heard there was a new Neptune 4 firmware update that helped resolve that. I haven’t checked to be honest though
I had the same issue and I had to hurry out and let it run without check and absolutely destroyed my tool head when the filament caked on it. It also caused the printer to go in error mode and the motherboard now needs firmware reflashed. Unfortunately there are no parts available for the 4 max yet and as of now no new firmware updates either. Don’t take me wrong it’s been a great printer and I love it. I made the mistake of not watching it for a few layers and adjusting the z-height and that’s on me.
On my Neptune 3 Max (running Klipper) I'm pretty sure this issue is just a thermal expansion situation. If you fire up the printer and start printing the moment the temp is stable the "gap" is different than if you let the printer sit "at temp" for 15min or so and then start printing. In any event, do the bed level at the temperature conditions you will be working at... always printing on first fire up? Do the bed level immediately after you've hit temp. In my case I ALWAYS let the printer idle at full bed temp for 15min before starting to print, and that is the point in time I did the bed level. That way if I abort a print shortly after starting, or immediately launch into another print, I don't have to worry about waiting for thermal expansion on a "cold" printer...
That could be. I have typically done my bed leveling after heating the bed to 60 and nozzle to something like 140 (so it doesn't ooze) but I haven't let it just soak heat at full temp for 15 minutes. I installed the latest firmware (turns out I was not on the latest) and still having some issues, but I actually now suspect there's more going on. I get a lot of gooeyness that strings and globs all over the bed even at lower temperatures and that's destroying adhesion. Once I get the initial layer down it's all fine from there, but that first layer is a doozy. I'm using Overture matte PLA filament fresh out of the box and it's consistently happened with six rolls ordered on different occasions. I get slightly better results at higher temperatures (225 nozzle / 70 bed) but then more stringing. So, I'm not sure if maybe it's the filament or retraction or bed leveling or flow or something else entirely. I'm just not experienced enough to know what I'm looking at when it's going wrong.
My Max is in an enclosure, and I run the bed at 100C printing ABS, so these thermal issues are even more magnified. I chased this issue for days when I first started printing, but having a consistent approach to WHEN I start printing vs WHEN I did the bed level was the key to success. Again, let the whole printer come to temp and stay there for 15min, then do a bed level, then always start your printing run after a 15min warm up and this Z offset issue will go away. I do have another alternate bed level profile in Klipper/Mainsail that was taken just at first bed warm-up to temp, but I only did that after I understood the full issue, and you darn well sure don't want to get the profiles mixed up... :)
Thanks, Jesse! Had my eye on this printer for a bit. One thing I haven't been able to find is how much room front and back is needed for full extent bed movement... Base dimensions are available but not actual required useable space... Can you help out?
Just measured my 4 Max, the full sweep of the bed is 37 inches full back to full forward. It's 27.5 inches wide and 30 inches tall without the spool holder, I've got it on the bottom shelf of a 48" x 24" shelving unit and had to put a 2x4 on the floor in front of it to give it enough room to move. It's a beast.
@@leeball4 THANKS!!!
15:29 I'd love to hear any updates on fixes for the Z offset issue. Seems pretty annoying.
i occasionally get that z-offset glitch on my neptune 3 max... i noticed i get it when i print via usb directly from cura, and then print something with the micro SD card... when i go back to cura, the z-offset is either super high, or very low... it's so strange... i've asked several groups, but no one else gets this "glitch"... i'll level it again, and i know the number i use for my z-offset, i have it written down on a post it on my monitor... and then i'll adjust it again, start to print, and it's wrong... super strange...
Hey Awesome video can't wait to see more. Thought you should know at 15:30 your volume changed and went quieter.
Challenge:
Take a shot every time Uncle Jessy says "run off and print" 🥴
Have this printer myself and love the results but had a couple of issues. First the gantry wasn't square, I actually had to shim it to get it truly square. This was causing me to have inconsistent layer heights as the print got higher. 2nd the bed sensor doesn't give a consistent z on home. I frequently have to change the offset +/- .1mm to get a good first layer. 3rd... they used a very old distro of Debian that will not support updated versions of Klipper and the Fuidd interface they have chosen gives incorrect data like stating the start time of the print is the projected end time. Of course because Debian is so out of date, the arguably best choice for camera support, Crowsnest can't be installed. The included camera support will keep the camera up for an hour or so but will need a system reboot to bring it back once the camera is shut off by the system. I put in a ticket with Elegoo and they were very insistent that nothing of the software be changed and the z sensor is working as intended.
With all that being said, it's a good printer, it just needed a little more tech savviness on the software end in my opinion.
That looks like the sv06 plus nozzle.... I think I saw some where that someone identified that nozzle as a nozzle specific to another Creality printer (K1 maybe?), but that might be wrong. Anyway, would be interested to see if it's actually the same as the Sovol.
I am having a problem of my prints not staying on the bed. Any ideas. I have tried leveling several times. Tried hair spray etc.
What was the solution here ? I'm having similar issues.
I've had mine for a about 2 weeks now. I'm enjoying it so far but it does have some quirks I hope get sorted through a firmware update. I've experienced the z offset issue you mentioned but it's very random. I've been printing out the large parts of the Robot Devil model from Droid Division over the past few days and the printer has been on the whole time, z offset was consistent til this morning when all of a sudden it needed to be adjusted up by .08. The size of the bed makes it very prone to big movements from temperature change so like you I am glad it has the leveling wheels. The Elegoo Cura is a big turd, I wish they would just come with finely tuned profiles for the more popular slicers. The potential for this machine and what it can enable me to do are tremendous. This printer combined with the Creality K1 I picked up a week before this arrived have transformed me back into a maker instead of a 3D printer. Which is incredibly freeing to have such reliable tools.
How are you liking it 4 months later?
What do you have to say about her today? Do you recommend buying it or any other model?
Can't wait to see what you will do with the Orange GigaStorm
Clearing some space for it ;)
@@UncleJessy Will be awesome to see! Only thing that disappoints me is how slow it is. I was hoping with a HUGE printer they would get the speed even higher especially with corexy. Wonder if they will have adjustment wheels 😑
Everything looks so smooth, and layer lines are non-existent, what are your settings in orca? Please. Awesome Video!!!
The thing I'm finding out about elegoo with having SLA/FDM printers myself is the company is just awesome in general.
I keep getting layer shifts on mine. I updated the firmware, tightened the belts, switched to Orca, and it still gives me giant layer shifts.
I have this and use Orcaslicer but, can't get settings for bigger layer heights. Using a .8mm nozzle and can't get than .28mm. Help?
I’m still new to Orca, but when you set up your printer profile did you make sure to set it to that nozzle size?
What table can you recommend that can take the high speeds of these printers and minimize the shaking that occurs?
I was on the fence on buying this, but now you have convinced me to pull that Triger.
I am still setting up my new Neptune 4 Max printer but I also have been watching various videos such as yours. When I ordered the printer I also ordered Multi-Sizes Nozzles for Neptune 4PLUS/4MAX which you had mentioned in your video. I am wondering if you would be willing to do another video talking about the advantages and disadvantages when using the different sized nozzles?
basically smaller nozzles much more detail, but take much more time to print, bigger nozzle faster print, smaller detail, but depending on what you want to print like simple shape, doesn't benefit smaller nozzle, it safe a lot of time print bigger thing using big nozzle
in order to level small portions of the bed, try putting notecards or small slips of paper (obviously smaller is better) between the build plate and the magnet where you have low spots.
try using aluminium foil folded. transfers the heat better.
you should make some merch and put "run off and print" on a t-shirt... I'd buy one 😁
Hahaha 😂 yes
just ordered mine last night, cant wait to set it up, been awhile since i had a 3d printer
I feel so much better reading these comments. I thought I was the only one struggling with my 4 max. I messed up my print surface as well. Ive run into multiple issues and im only 1 month into my 3d printing gig with now 3 printers on my farm. My elegoo neptune 3 plus is my workhorse, my ender s1 pro is a dud along with my 4 max. I refuse to give up on the max. If any of you could reach out with help on this firmware or patch I'd really appreciate it
Glad to see I'm not the only one having issues with that T-rex haha
I'm really impressed with my Neptune 3 pro, cant go wrong with it for a beginner!!!
If you do the got to home command on the tablet , load filament on the prepare screen , squeeze out one run wipe of the nozzle by razing Z to clean snot off then run Print ,The Input Shaping on these is Crazy smart .before i put a 8 kg square outdoor tile on my PC bench we were rocking an rollin with NO tile and print perfect ,i cant really say that the heavy tile helped the A.I Anti wobble seemed to not care about motion sickness LOL and was no difference in print quality wether its bolted down or going of on its own like some sort of crazy machine trying to change the world , one of the smartest things i heard on a 3D Printing channel was use one of those receipts you get say from the $$$ store in America there really thin 0.6- 0.7 mm .these Elegoo printers want a fair amount of squish in the purge line before you start to print isn't like two flat lines overlaying each each length ways Re - Z an bed level other wise bad things are going to happen i Know some of the so Called better printers are closed in ,but in fact cooling the print rather then slow cooling the print in an enclosure isn't really achieving anything but adding to EXTRA cost of your printer , its my belief that the more expensive printers arent really giving you anything extra than say a dust shield and really Custom spot on printer CFG .with that said id rather save my self 600 + odd dollars and spend it on filament and use one roll tinkering with the settings and be 15 rolls or so in front of someone who bought the $1200 printer its embarrassing really i think Elegoo is Like Toyota the went they saw they conquered in small iterations and came up with the best Quality Printer for the Price and still looking at the rich kid saying Bet you Pink slips i can beat you .
I'm hoping someone can release a hot end swap to use non proprietary nozzles with this thing... am really sad to see such a concerning feature... Unless I'm wrong, this just means that sourcing nozzles will be difficult, limmited to only 1 source, and be at threat for discontinuing at any moment from Elegoo... not exactly a great place to be on the nozzle of the printer
Can you Tell me, with how much Speed do you Print There with the New Printer? Or can you Tell me a good Speed Number What will Print fast and dont kill the quality? It Looks so good..
I haven't been able to find an answer, is there a major difference, aside from the size, for the EN4Max and the EN4Pro? I really want the Pro, but it would be nice for larger prints on the Max. I am trying to replace my EN2S that got flooded.
Considering I could barely afford to buy my used Ender 3 v2 for $120, $470 is definitely not what I’d consider affordable. But I’d definitely love one with that big bed.
I hope someone offers an enclosure for a machine this size. Long prints do much better in an enclosure, not to mention containing the VOCs/Nanoparticles that printing generates.
I wish Elegoo would explore upgrading existing models. I would love to be able to upgrade my Neptune X.
Try adding M420 S1 at the start at the print to load the bed leveling mesh.
My printer comes later today, I will have to for sure try our that slicer and your files.
I suggest a dryer box for your filament. A dual one is my suggestion. I got mine from Amazon I think.
good video - new to 3d printing and researching options. Narrowed down to Prusa XL, Bambu X1C and the Neptune 4 Max. For a first printer, I think I will go with the Max. Thanks for posting
Why did you not go with the x1c??
I was thinking about getting a printer and really enjoyed the video. I was wondering if you had any videos on using or how to use the programs you mention in the video.
I have a Neptune 4 max. Nothing but issues. I am on the current firmware loaded 3 times to try and fix my issues. 1. Input shaper errors out. 2. Printer stops randomly before finishing model, print head just stops where it’s at. The digital display does not show an error it still thinks it’s printing the temp still shows 215 and 70 on the bed. But the bed and print head are cold. 3. Elegoo rapid filament broke of in the extruded and in the tube below the gear melted in the extruder. I am not able to get it out with out breaking the extruder. I have been working with support for over 2 weeks I am currently waiting on extruder replacement. But I believe that that they need to send me a mains board because of my issues. Well it looks like I the part will not show up until next year sometime. Right now I have $500 paper weight. If you are interested in this 3d printer wait 2 - 3 months to see if the issues are fixed.
Have u had any luck with your yet?
I might not be able to buy the orange storm, or what it’s called, my mistake for mispronouncing the name. But I have found a new 3d printer I’d love to invest in the next year for my gauge 1 Thomas characters.
I'm looking to make parts for an rc plane and in trying to find the printer I can use to design the airframe
Oh, I just fixed that z offset issue on klipper. My start_print macro was setting z offset to zero. Check your macros, maybe that's what's causing your issue
I just purchased my Neptune 3 Max a few months ago. It looks so slow next to my Neptune 4 Pro.
Any videos coming on the OrangeStorm Giga? Makes this one look like a baby. 😅
Wish the cr10-smart had the bed leveling wheels… but that’s why I bought the Neptune
Galaxy Black filament looks so damn cool! These Elegoo printers look great too. Still waiting to put my Neptune 4 Pro together.
Hey Jessy, would like to get your profile for the Max4. I've had mine for over 6 weeks and am struggling to see the point. A machine this large needs an enclosure, and it will never print fast due to the mass of the print bed being slammed violently back and forth. This is causing the y axis motor to skip, layer shifting, etc. Bed-slingers and speed do not mix. I note in your video that your speeds are very medium. Try those in sport mode....
I wonder if Noctua Fans would be a good upgrade for those fans. I'm not gonna lie I am so close to pulling the trigger on this bad boy.
Did you?
I'm getting my first 3d printer I'm think this is the one would it be begginer friendly
Uncle J...Any comment on the Elegoo OrangeStorm Giga and it being on KickStarter? I find that a little confusing.
Yeah, I’m not thrilled with that either. Excited about that machine / pricing is wild…… coming soon 🙃🤘
For what it's worth, I have the same Z-offset problem with my Neptune 4 non-Pro. It was one of the many issues that led me to eventually get a P1S...
Same here, wasted 2 weeks on a 4 pro that i now sent back. The probe temp sensitive + the firmware problems + a crooked bed was too much. Ordered my first bambu lab printer
i have to watch every print's first layer. always have to adjust it up or own by 0.02mm. it's a slight annoyance but the nozzle and bed heat up fast so it's not too bad
@@BADGOY-45 yep, the bed was the other main reason for getting the P1S. Mine's so bent that, no matter how much I adjusted it, only half the bed was printable at any given time. The recommendation was to use foil under the build plate...which only causes inconsistencies in bed temperature, causing _more_ problems. I've still got it, sitting in the corner gathering dust.
The only thing I miss is the camera capability, because it's junk on the P1S.
@@digiscream hundreds of new buyers had those same issue. They went full Creality. Its a shame
Having the same problem with my Neptune 3 plus on the latest firmware. I also just bought a P1S.
Plus or max? What do you recommend. Just in general, take size and cost of the decision
do you have a video about your support setting and do you have some setting for orca aka bambu lab? I seen your short where you just pull the supports off that magneto helmet
thank you for that great video. i want to try the orca slicer. thank you for the recommendation. i got the neptune 3 plus from your recommendation and am very happywith it.
If you have to choose between the k1 max and the neptune 4 pro or max. What will be your option to buy ??
Help! I have one and now I have really odd software issue and can't even use my new printer any help would be appreciated
What brand of multicolor PLA did you use to print the t-rex? It looked great!
I got the Neptune 4 Max, but is is very buggy on the Z axis. I need to wait for a firmware update.
What kind of padding do you typically use for your helmets?
My hair 🤣😂 or harbor freight foam floor mats
Might be time to update my Artillery Sidewinder X1?
So I was searching for firmware update for it but for the love of me I can not find it
Now we just need Elegoo to release a Neptune X2 to compete with the Creality K1
im buying a 3d printer soon as was wondering, do you have to build it yourself after buying it? or do they come prebuilt?
Awesome video. Should i purchase from AZN or Directly from Elegoo, as I thinking if there is an issue and getting a new one. How is Elegoo with returns? Also, Does AZN have newer or older models in stock?
Are there CHT nozzles for these already ? Also could you not print faster with CHTs instead of normal nozzles ?
Saw a video about skewed x/y axis on the Neptune 4 pro, would be cool if you analyzed that issue on your Neptune 4 lineup in the Neptune 4 plus review!
@UncleJessy you should talk with the fine folks at Elegoo about promo codes. I bought this printer because of your videos and I think you should be compensated for your endeavor.
Where can we get the updated firmware? My 4 max is absolutely needing it but no idea how to get it and put it on this printer.
That Magneto helmet is awesome! I have the “other” printer you talk about. After having a couple different brands that I always had to tinker with I have had such a small amount of print fails with my Bambu. They have only been very small intricate prints and generally it is a first layer issue or fails very early. I still would like a larger print volume sometimes than 256 Cubed. 😁
Yeah what I’m loving is there are so many options now based on people’s budgets & needs!
How does this compare to the Mingda Magician Max2 which is what I got.
It's been awhile since I've printed silk , but I think the extrusion rate might need to be lowered and it might be a good idea to tinker with a temp tower
What is the awesome blue filament he keeps showing
Where can I find your settings for this printer, specifically large prints? I'm running into a lot of warping on my poster high speed prints and can't seem to figure it out
How does Neptune 4 plus compare to bamboo p1p for helmet prints speed wise?? I'm having a hard time deciding which one to get
If you figure out the banding make a video sometimes i get it other times i dont. I have yet to find anything on boards that is the cause/Fixes it
Yeah it was really odd to see it randomly twist for a few layers
Same things happened to me also what was the rainbow filament
Weird i emailed about the galaxy black filament and they said its not for sale.......
I'm trying to decide between Neptune 4 max and Anycubic Kobra 2 Max. I'm suprised Uncle Jessy never mentioned the pom wheels on all axis. The AK2M uses metal. I guess because Elegoo sponsors so many of his videos he's not really giving the full story. Also, the AK2M has auto Z axis leveling and prints just as fast. No leveling knobs like the Neptune 4 Max. The AK2M is a little more expensive but it seems worth it. What am I missing here? Elegoo should have made the Max more like the Pro.
One day I’ll get one of these 😢
I dont see that filament for sale on elegoo website
How is the print quality compared to the "other printer?"
I have the neptune 4 pro and the quality is about the same as my bambu. The only difference is you have to manually set the bed and z off axis. The bambu is almost plug and play. It takes a lot of the manual adjustments out of the equation with all the sensors they pack in them. For a new person like my self only 4 months in the hobby.... The bambu is way better. I haven't had a bad print and anything that didn't work out was user error.
I honestly couldnt tell the difference between one and the other. The bambu clearly will print faster but im still super impressed with what elegoo has bene able to do with this huge bed slinger
@@cStatixI'm new to the 3D printing scene as well, so maybe I'll go for either the P1P or P1S to start with. I'm going to be printing a lot of D&D terrain and miniatures, so I thought something bigger like the Neptune 4 Max would be nice for some larger terrain and scenery. The Bambu Lab stuff seems like a no-brainer though, so I'll probably go with that first. If I decide I need a larger print bed, I'll get the Neptune later down the road and run them both at the same time. I also want to pick up a resin printer for the miniatures though.
@Vortex1988 for the price of a p1s you could get a neptune 4 and a Mars 3 (and have change to get the wash and cure).
Use one neptune for terrain and Mars for minis lol.
The Bambus are amazing though. I have the x1c and love it.
@@billfred_tg all of this! It all comes down to what you need & your budget.
How do you set up Orca to include the N4M? I did not see the option in the printer menu for the N4M.
Do you have a link to the orca slicer profile that you mentioned you are using.
Wo bekommt man dieses Regenbogen filament ?
Hi Uncle Jessy. Great video as usual. I finally received my elevo Neptune 4 plus printer this morning and to my great surprise one of the brass nuts (endless threaded bars for Z axis) is loose. The 2 screws that hold it are barely tight and therefore leave some play. On the other hand, they will be perfect. Is this normal? did you have the same thing on yours? Thank you for your help and see you soon. Victor😅
This made me pull the trigger, appreciate the video. My CR-10 Smart just isn't big enough for what I need it for. I'm currently awaiting my Max (I believe it's supposed to be here next Thursday). Any chance you've put the "Nylon" claim to the test that they list on their spec sheet? Would love to hear from someone who's tested it.
hows it working out for u now?
@@KillinoisKennels I love my N4M! This thing has been a workhorse and it prints nearly 24/7. It's definitely helping production speeds for my etsy listings and for custom work I am doing for people. (I still haven't tested the nylon claim yet, I really should just order some and test it.)
@UncleJessy
Could you please make a followup comment or video on how to fix the Z offset issue that you mentioned towards the end of the video when a fix is available? I feel like my Neptune 3 Pro suffers from a similar issue so I am interested in possible solutions.
How loud is it if you are printing without the turbo fans?
What's that gold filament? It looks amazing!
