K2 SE Do not buy this devil of a machine (Rant)

OMFG THIS PRINTER IS MAKING ME GO CRAZY!!! one second its working perfectly… the next its throwing a temper tantrum… the gears on my extruder seem to jump or jam randomly for like a millisecond causing rips in my prints… right now i feel more like a 3D printer surgeon than a 3d artist!! I’ve taken this thing apart that many times i feel like one of those people who can strip down a gun and rebuild it blind folded in under 30 seconds…

Is there a way i can get a refund? I’ve only had it for like 2 weeks but im not sure how i can go about it. With this being my first 3d printer it makes me feel like quitting the hobby all together!! and it completely ruined my goal at having a little 3d printer farm as a side hussle!

I’ve probably wasted like 2 spools of PLA trying to get this thing to work correctly!! its easier to get a 10 year old fussy eater to eat broccoli than getting this devil of a machine to eat its filiment

The reason why i got this printer is because bought a creality falcon 10w laser engraver and it worked perfectly so i assumed that their 3d printers would be the same!! at this point it makes me feel like i should sell my laser engraver too and invest into another one from a different company!!

Rant over, time to take this thing apart again for the 100th time

Or maybe @CREALITY or @Optimus can help you. sorry guys for ping you let me to know if is not OK do it again.

Give us some more information. I don’t have a K2 SE but I have a print farm with 13 Creality printers, including a K2 Pro.

What filament are you using and at what temps?

i was using Creality hyper PLA, i just moved to bambu lab matt PLA and it seems fine so far (only just started a print not complete yet, fingers crossed it was the filament that kept messing up somehow!

I swear im in a love hate relationship with this printer haha.

If you don’t mind me asking do you make your own stls or do you buy them? i don’t know much about print farms yet so any info you can pass on to me would be precipitated.

thank you for your time :slight_smile:

I’ve never been a fan of hyper plas or pla+ personally, so it very well may have been a filament issue.

I design my own products.
