Product Information

Finally, install the filament spool holder atop the device, finish connecting the extrusion system, motor lines, and connect the power cord. OctoPrint is compatible with virtually all consumer 3D printers, including the Ender 3 in all its guises. A primer helps fill in the gaps on your print to make sanding it down easier. It also makes it easier to paint if you want to paint the model afterward.

It may be a leveling problem, please refer to the linked video for leveling. https://youtu.be/4JGLRgsLfHE Run the next file CHEP_bed_level_print.gcode file and basically adjust your leveling knobs while the bed is moving, being careful with the movement of the bed. You want to do this until you see the filament is extruding nicely onto the bed surface – not too high or low. Yes, you can 3D print from a USB on an Ender 3 by connecting a USB to your computer or laptop then to the Ender 3. If you are using Cura, you can navigate to the Monitor tab and you’ll see an interface showing the Ender 3 along with some control options. When you slice your model, simply select “Print via USB”. The Ender-3 V2 includes a user manual, which is mostly a setup guide. Text is duplicated in English and Chinese throughout. It starts with front and rear diagrams of the printer, with the parts numbered. Also included are a spec sheet and a comprehensive parts list (erroneously titled "Spare Parts"), with illustrations and names for each part.First, sand the print down with 120/200 grit coarse sandpaper. You can move up to 300 grit once the surface becomes smoother.

The V2 comes with all the tools you should need for assembly—although, as mentioned, I also needed to use one of my own wrenches to resolve an issue. This is not the model to get if you are looking to simply plug and print. Many closed-frame printers, as well as the pre-assembled Prusa i3 MK3S+, fit that profile, though the latter costs about three times as much as the V2.Print Clean-Up – Hobby knife kit with 13 blades, 3 handles with a de-burring tool with 6 blades, tweezers, pliers, mini-file and large cutting mat

All in all, a very good printer "Well done Creality" But please add more features to the display panel 4 stars would have been 5 if not for the belt and PEI Plate Creality sets a new baseline for budget 3D printing. It's the same old Ender-3 3D Printer experience, improved with current hardware that includes a 32-bit mainboard, silent stepper motor drivers, a much cleaner appearance and design, plus plenty of other, smaller, touches. In testing, I printed 10 sample objects, all at the standard 200-micron resolution. Overall print quality was slightly above average. For the most part, the Ender-3 V2 did well in rendering detail, though it had some problems on the bottom side of overhangs. There were a few misprints; except in one case, they occurred at the very beginning of prints, with the first layers not adhering well and the object soon pulling off the print bed. This was corrected by re-leveling the print bed.The Ender 3’s base comes in one piece, with the bed and electronics wiring already connected to the mainboard.
