Calibration of new (non CR preconfigured) filament - how to for K2

No, this is not on the printer screen, it is on any web browser which you point to http://ip-of-your-printer:4408/, for example for me http://192.168.1.35:4408/ and then in your web browser you see the klipper/fluidd page where you can control the printer remotely without CP6. This is just the remote control (web) page of the printer!
And yes, you see the numbers only until the next print, so read them before you send any new print!

Awesome! Thanks

creality gonna block custom rfid on next firmware update…info came from gilouz on the d&g youtube channel

Just wanted to show you that for some new filaments which I want to print as fast as possible (flow rate > 15 mm³/s) I run also Max flow rate test in CP6, for high speed PLA for example like this:


The outcome is the maximum flow rate I can use in the filament profile.
For the above elegoo Rapid PLA+ it was 25 mm3/s @ 225° nozzle temp.
The left one was @220°.

Hello classybk,

I don’t believe they actually are going to.

Cheers.

Creality was (and did with newest update) to block unencrypted tags.
The custom app has been updated and is compatible with the firmware changes.

The only source for this information, I searched everywhere around the internet including asking in Reddit and Facebook groups, Thank you so much

What am I doing wrong, but my browser gives me an error when accessing the printer address!
Could this be related to the latest update?

It should work fine if you are accessing your printer from your home network. What exact address are you typing in and how did you find that address?

Did you install Creality Print V6.0.x and do you see the printer on the device tab? You should see there as well the IP address.
Anyhow, it work only if your computer is on same local network, if you want to remotely control the printer over any network you can use creality cloud but I do not connect my printer to this and access only locally.

if I type http://192.168.1.70 (The IP address of the printer on my LAN) I am accessing the printer. But the PA and Flow information are not displayed.
If I type http://IP-adress:4408 - ERROR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

I tried to open the window both before printing and during printing of the test disk.

Are you getting into the fluidd interface? it should look like this:


The PA and flow are displayed here:

No, I don’t see this kind of interface.
My window looks like a regular tab, like a printer window in Creality Print.

When entering IP_address:4408, I get an error

Just so we are Crystal clear , you are never actually typing “IP-address”, you are always typing exactly http://192.168.1.70:4408

Right?

Yes, of course

Question: Is Fluidd some kind of program? Should it be installed in the printer?
and without this program, I will never see the parameters of PA and other other settings?

Fluidd comes preinstalled with the printer.
Do you have any active VPN connections open which could interfere which the connection?

No.

should the printer have root access?

You DONT need root access for the fluidd interface. I also think rooting voids your warranty but im not 100% sure on that.

Normally you should just be able to access it.

3. Is K2 Plus open-source?

K2 Plus uses Klipper-based Creality OS which follows the open source rules. In addition, K2 Plus has built-in moonraker and fluidd service, no need to install it twice; The fluidd port is 4408 and the camera port is 8000.
