Looking for a good multicolor printer

I would look into the Snapmaker U1 or the Flashforge Creator 5 pro. The U1 has been out for a while and has a good community and good support. More Creator 5 reviews are trickling out now. Both of these machines are Tool Changers. This means that they can print multicolor with little to no waste, un

Upgrading from the A1 to either the P2S or the X2D... Opinions?

Worth noting that for basically the price of an X2D combo you could get the flashforge creator 5 pro, which is an enclosed four-head toolchanger with the same build volume, 320C nozzle and a heated chamber. If you think there's a chance that you want to do multicolour in any serious way in the futur

X2D vs P2S

X2D has the dual nozzle which I think is well worth it. It also has finer pitched belts that reduce VFA’s. I can’t see any reason to go with the P2s other than it’s $100 cheaper. Also I would seriously consider the Flashforge Creator 5 Pro or the snapmaker u1. I also have a p1s but for multicolor pr

Asking for advice for a new printer

If your main focus is multi color you should go with a toolchanger like Snapmaker U1 or Flashforge Creator 5/pro. They are significantly faster with multi color/multi filament prints. They have less build volume though. Creator 5 pro also has better engineering filament capabilities. Bambu cloud isn

P2S or X2D

Yep, and the P1S is still excellent and can be easily upgraded with a chamber heater (plus aftermarket hotends to add quick-swap nozzles etc) for a not hugely significant amount of money. They're still selling the P1S on the UK store and it's just slightly more expensive than the A1. Excellent machi

People who got the creator 5 how is it?

The Creator 5 printers are still very new, I don't think anyone has received their Creator 5 Pros yet. But I think a toolchanger like these or the snapmaker U1 are definitely the way to go if you want to reduce waste printing in multiple colors or if you want to print in multi-material or engineerin

First-time buyer

I have the Creator 5 Pro (C5P) for over a week now and I am very happy with it. I have printed some 70 hours on it so far and it’s been rock solid. Also, I’m relatively new to this hobby so I’m only able to cite my basic experience overall. I believe the C5P is beginner friendly as long as you do so

Good Bambu Lab X2D alternatives?

Do you need multi-material, amd less waste printing color? If not, the Centauri Carbon 2 Combo is a reasonable choice for an enclosed comedy. If yes, and you want a heated enclosure, I don't think anything except a Flashforge Creator 5 Pro will be in that price range. If you can do without color or

Good Bambu Lab X2D alternatives?

All companies have their skeletons. The two closest equivalents in terms of price/features are the Snapmaker U1 and Flashforge Creator 5 pro. Both companies have their own issues, they’re just different ones than Bambu. If the X2D is the right combination of features go with that. If the 4 extruder
