Is 4 Ultra 16K a problematic printer as people say?
Every printer ever made has had someone with a failure out of the box. And as has been said a thousand times, people don't post when they're happy. The only printer I've had that was a constant pain was the m5s pro and Anycubic stopped selling that one conspicuously quickly. My ultra 16k has been a

What the actual heck is this adheasion?
You are fighting 2 issues here (as is typical), leveling, and lack of wait times. Iirc, the M5S Pro is an auto leveling printer, so you’re already off to a bad start. These printers don’t actually level, something ‘floats’. On Anycubic printers it’s the LCD. So no matter how much you level the build

The hood of my M3 has something dried inside of it, and it really stinks of plastic.
I have personally experienced this before on used machines. Here’s what worked for me: Fill the hood with hot, concentrated Mean Green and let it soak for a while. After that, buff it out with Meguiar’s PlastX — the kind made for restoring cloudy headlights. Honestly, treat it just like a cloudy car

Why does it keep shutting down??
That's this page, correct? https://store.anycubic.com/products/adapter-1 Unfortunately, this isn't the adapter for your model. Though it says it's for the Photon Series, implying all Photon mosel printers, it's actually only compatible with a very skint few models, listed on the page (Air Heat& Pure

Is it normal for the vat to start stripping the black paint?
One of my two Anycubic m5s pro vats is stripped. My elegoo mars2 pro vat has been fine for many years, one of my two Saturn 4 ultra vats is stripping. Just seems to be a crapshoot. I just sand it down smooth so no chunks come off in the vat. Whether it's bare metal or not doesn't affect anything.

Help!
I did the light test with a bar blade and I had a very slight (maybe less than 1mm) light shine through. I can't guarantee the problem was with the plate or the blade however. I don't own anything like a steel rule or a tri-square so it would come out of pocket to test it again. I use a 32gb stick I

Quick question: What resolution is the camera on the Saturn 4 Ultra 12K?
Just don’t rely on their “AI” detection. It’s a joke. Remote viewing is great though. The reality is it takes so many layers just to get the build plate above the vat even if they fixed their AI detection you’re still quite a way into a print before you would even know if you had a failure. I’m not

Photon Mono M5s Pro: Looking to upgrade - suggestions?
Small update: I decided to go with the Anycubic M7 Max. Otherwise, I probably would have gone with the Anycubic P1 - but that build plate is almost the same size as my current M5s Pro, and I was looking to upgrade to a large-format printer.

I am done with Anycubic
I can’t speak for the S1 combo. Mixed bag here. Initially - I bought a refurbed Anycubic Mono M5s Pro, resin leak newb error, they wanted parts shipped from China and tariffs were in full effect so it wasn’t worth repairing. I stripped it down salvaged the UV array and use it as a cure light. Anycub

Saturn 4 Ultra owners: would you buy it again?
I went from the Anycubic photon m5s pro to the Saturn 4 ultra and I don’t see myself ever going back to Anycubic. I actually went to print something on the M5sp to try and calibrate it as well as I had the Saturn and the boxes of calibration failed and stuck to the ACF. That kinda sealed it for me
