  I would suggest Cura, because it is a solid slicer, free, and easy to use.

  Hi, new user but simmilar problem. Ender 3v2, 422 board bought with v102 firmware. Updated to v111 BL touch but works poorly so ask creality service for latest soft. After update to v2084 got black screen so ask for a new scrin soft. Got DWIN from service but latest file inside was 03.2020 and after inserting to display slot it turns from black to blue and orange and stayed so. After reboot still black. I tryed to downgrade mainboard to 111 or 102 but still black (dont know if realized but used same card as for update with only one bin). Last attempt was to update by cura. Connect via usb, drivers seemed to install prop, display backlight on, BLtouch lights and pops out/in but cura cant see any connected printer. Service not responding for a few days. Any idea to help me??

  What Filaments Can Be Used On A Creality Ender-3 3D Printer?

  I see that ASA does not have a large fan base. My application will be clips mounted on the roof to make setting up my Christmas lights a snap. But I dont see much discussion about this filament and the Ender -3 V2. Is it possible with this unit stock or will I need to upgrade some parts of my printer? I just stumbled across what everyone calls E-steps. And I am not sure what I finially did to get it to save the setting. My marked filament showed that I was like 15mm shy of the 100mm target. So, my filament started to stick to the bed, but while drawing out a circle, it would get about 25% drawn and then the filament would start to move with the nozzle till it was a wad. Sure would be nice if Creality would have a manual that would go a wee bit deeper into the various settings and what they are for.

  Same here, but my z-axis won't go down, just up, then stops. I posted in the "accessories" part of the forums. @admin

  I just posted about this same issue under the "accessories" page. Make sure you have removed the z-axis limit switch, then try again. If that doesn't help, and you have already confirm the proper firmware, wiring, etc, then you are in the same boat I am.... waiting for a response.

  I am having the same type of issue on an Ender 3 v2. Can't do print out of the box....just get a lowtempature warning and then failure. Did a pidtune but that doesn't seem to help either. Temp gets to its starting point, runs for a few layers and then just starts going down and never recovers until the failure. Its almost like the power supply cant handle the load from heating both the bed and nozzle.

  @Memphismark I'm having the EXACT same issues - in fact I'm having them with 2 BRAND NEW printers. After 10 days and 30-40 hours of trying to get the first one to work I returned it when support asked me to start probing it with a multimeter. I assumed the replacement would be fine as I have yet another 3 Pro that I bought when I bought the bad one - it's been flawless. The replacement does the EXACT same thing too. Did you resolve this?

  Thank you so much for the reply @Richardnash666. I tried a reflash today of the firmware and ran into a couple of issues which I'm sure is just due to me being new to Creality products. I went to creality.com and checked the firmware downloads for the V2, and was surprised to find they had firmware listed for board versions 4.2.3 and 4.2.7. I was expecting to see v4.2.2 (the one I have) and 4.2.7 (the latest board version available). I assume this is likely a typo? So not wanting to potentially flash incorrect firmware, I checked out CrealityOfficial and CrealityCloud, and was surprised to see they both had different collections of firmware, and different methods of storing the files (e.g. Google Drive???). Are these sites dodgy or unofficial? I also saw in various YouTube videos that you have to flash the screen firmware first, yet the firmware downloads I saw on CrealityCloud were for the mainboard only, nothing was listed for the screen. Can anyone please clarify the correct download location of the firmware for v4.2.2? For reference, this is the page that lists 4.2.3 firmware: https://www.creality.com/pages/download-ender-3-v2?spm=..page.products_display_1.1

  Yes its quite normal for a small amount of plastic to ooze out as the nozzle heats up. You could set the print head (say) 2cm above the bed and then carefully remove the surplus plastic once the nozzle is up to temperature. However, when the nozzle 'dips' just before starting a print, it should stick and anchor itself to the bed, so maybe its not sticking as well as it should. Another point is that the Cura slicer includes a 'purge line' at the start of each print. This is helpful in sorting out this kind of startup problem.
