Dialogue with the Creality Print V5 and above R&D Team

Do you really think I don’t know what G-code is? I know what the slicer produces as well. Could you be a little more condescending?

My question was specifically why is that presented as an error in red. Yes, I know the printer is printing, and while it’s printing, I doubt I’d be wanting to send more G-code.

@3D4Everyone is trying to help you as you have helped others. We don’t know the extent of your knowledge so don’t be so defensive or no one will try to help you. You can learn a lot from this group.

FWIW I’ve removed the LiDar from mine and turned off all those settings… All.

Well if you don’t want help, just keep responding like that. Lots of people send gcode while printing to pause prints etc. to change color for instance. I have no idea what your knowledge is and your question indicated you didn’t have any idea what was going on, red doesn’t mean error, red means take notice. Just ignore it.

Well you obviously know everything there is to know on this subject, its obviously detecting something, maybe try cleaning your printer. You’re just a rude guy and there is no need at all for that

I have no idea what your knowledge is and your question indicated you didn’t have any idea what was going on, red doesn’t mean error, red means take notice. Just ignore it.

I’ve just never seen any other “informational” message in red. Also, since it just popped up with a version update, I wondered what it was trying to tell me. I did see several other people ask the same question, and nobody answered.

As for the AI error, that’s another one that has been asked several times with no response. The printer is spotless clean, that was my first inclination, but that didn’t change it. I do realize I can disable all that stuff, but I thought it would be nice if it actually worked and prevented the occasional bird’s nest. I can only think it’s the textured surface on the plate fooling the AI, but I would have thought they would have handled that.

When I see that message on mine it usually means the printer is busy printing or uploading a file and can’t do more than one thing at a time… :smiley:

I guess so, I was just wondering why it suddenly started popping up every time I started a print when CP 5.0 didn’t have that prompt.

I have been ignoring it, I guess I’ll just keep ignoring it.

I am going back to version 10249.

:white_check_mark:After I add pause in Version 10249 the slice button goes active allowing you to write the pause into the gcode.

Version 10249 :arrow_heading_down:

:x:The new version it is still greyed out until you go back and move the model back and forth just to get the slice button working again.

:x:I also couldn’t find where the pause was written in the gcode panel.

:white_check_mark:When I add pause to a model on layer 10 for example, reslice and then print it pauses correctly but…

:x:After I delete that model. Start a new one on the build plate. Slice. The pause from the last model is still there… ??

This happens also on 10249…
Is that normal or should the gcode start fresh when you start a new model on the build plate and slice…?

I get that in Orca/Prusa/Qidi slicers too suggesting its not necessarily a Creality bug.

You’re right.
I just never encountered that before and thought it was a bit odd…

Seems it would make sense to start with fresh gcode instead of carrying over all the pauses from the last model…???

Only noticed it as I have a bad habit of deleting models once sliced and sent, then replaced them with the next build. Bad habit is probably the wrong description, slightly annoying would be to close and reopen the slicer.

@Optimus feature request please… [Feature Request] CP5.1 automatically open 'Device' screen after clicking Send or Print

Its kind of an obvious workflow thing, but it would be irritating if you have 2 printers or more connected to a sonic pad, Creality have not addressed multiple printers or cameras on a sonic pad.

I use Creality Print 5 as my primary slicer and interface. As a software developer I like watching it advance and grow over time. I do have a couple enhancement suggestions.

  1. Have the printer assigned per plate not for all plates. I have multiple printers and would like to be able to use one slicer and have items on different plates for different printers.
  2. Be able to save and assign configurations per model not just globally, yes, I understand that what can be changed between models on the same plate will have limits. One thing that I do whenever I get a new filament is print a swatch. That swatch is 10 layers with 5 top and 5 bottom making it solid. I need to print the swatch separately with my Swatch configuration file or manually change the top and bottom layers if I want to print it with other stuff. That’s just a practical example. I can see many other circumstances that it would be useful.

I really like my K2 so far and I use Creality Print 5 but have only been doing single color and not taking full advantage of the CFS. Most of my designs are using Fusion and I wanted to have some color text inlayed into an object. The way this is usually done with Fusion is to have separate stl files for each filament that are already positioned in relation to each other. Is there a way to import stl models without having them do an auto layout and auto bottom as that destroys the relationship. Also is there a way of turning off the warnings about models being too close to each other and not touching the plate as that is the way it should be for this type of printing. Maybe this could be a mode that Creality print can be set to for multi stl color printing. I would prefer not to have to switch to orca just for this one feature.

Update: I imported the stl files into Orca a a single object with multiple bodies and then saved the project, Creality print was able to import it correctly and did a great job of printing it. So the capability is there it is just not accusable.

Update2: Installed Creality Print 6 and it has this implemented.

please fix this ASAP!!!
Scale sometimes is messed up!!

Bonjour ,

Comme pour le module rond ou carré pouvez vous créer un bouton pour ajouter de la matière ?

The prime tower in Creality Print 6 is 20 times the size of the one in Creality Print 5. It quite often is so large it won’t fit on the printer plate. I am using the exact same color project in both 5 and 6. I uninstalled and reinstalled CP 6 and that made no difference. Changing the volume for the tower also has no effect, I changed it to 2 from 45 and the tower is still the same size. When I import the project, the tower is small but when I slice it becomes huge.

Thanks for the latest release of Creality Print, V6 solves the problems that I have found so far.

Can you give us the option for Darkmode UI in Creality Print 6 please?
