Another advantage of the printed plastic carriage replacing the metal part is that the weight comes down enough so the head does not drop anymore when the motors are disengaged (for me anyway).
Just noticed on the CoPrint wiki there is a page I have not seen before. It think it might be quite recent - was last updated 16 May '25 and thought I would mention it in case anybody wants to check it out. Seems quite software technical but the page is titled " Setup KCM Set Creality K1 and V3 Series" and then the blurb says: “There are some incompatibilities in Klipper for Creality K1 and V3 series. You can solve this problem by following the steps below;” https://wiki.coprint3d.com/en/Setup-KCM-Set-Creality-K1-and-V3-Series
Just when I thought my printer was working and my prints are beautiful again.
Never. It automatically levels before every print.
I’m thinking about buying the +4 extruder and the ECM. So far, this Coprint stuff has worked 100% for me. I make pictures with Huefor, and the +4 color would be useful there. I’m going to modify Frause’s method so that I can fit the ECM under the cover.
How long did it take to complete? How much fill did you use? It’s cool by the way.
I don’t fully understand this table leveling, for me it levels everything before printing. Can this be turned off? It doesn’t really bother me, it only takes a few minutes.
I haven’t printed for more than 16 hours.
I haven’t experienced any problems recently. The bed level is also good, I’ve never had a problem with that. I see one thing wrong at the moment, when changing filament, it pushes the previous one back a little, in which case the filament can go under the drum on the spool. My drum rotates on bearings. But this is not the printer’s fault. I’ll figure out some kind of spring buffer for it.
Normal multicolour prints work fine, but when I don’t want to build a huge wipe tower for a single colour change many layers higher up in my print and just put in a pause for a manual change, I get this behaviour too. It pauses as it should, I do a retract but then when I later hit extrude after changing filament it goes to the print and poops all over it, messing up the print. And there is no resume button, almost as if hitting extrude means resume and extrude.
Hi Guys,
I have the Coprint set installed in a regular Ender3v3. I got the kit on Preorder so when I received it there was not too much help in regard to the regular Ender 3V3 - just for the Plus. I ended Scratching a plate and spending, expending a few hours with a tech from Coprint who remoted in to help, and ended doing a few hours of AI tweaking the config files.
I am not sure if there are now official config files for the E3 V3 as I am somewhat happy with the current files I have, but I am happy to share them if someone needs them.
I understand that the firmware for the Ender 3V3 and Plus is the same. Everything is available here. Ender 3v3 KCM Set Setup Page | Co Print Wiki
You don’t need to modify any config files. At least I didn’t do anything. I installed this, reassembled it, started the Orca slicer, selected the printer, and that’s it. I modified the head carrier so that the printable area remained the original size, so I had to modify this in the config files, but nothing else.
I’ve encountered one error so far, but as I see, it’s the same for others. The error occurs when the filament runs out or when changing filament manually. In this case, the rinsing before continuing is performed on the printed surface, and this ruins the print. We haven’t found a solution for this yet.
