PLUS4

The U1 is my third printer. I can't speak to the Creality at all. I started with a Mingda Magician Max, which was a lot of trouble for me. Moved to the Qidi Plus 4. It's an excellent printer. Print quality is great and it's been largely effortless. That is, until I got the Qidi Box. Took 6 weeks of

How much of your concern is the principle of supporting Bambu considering their business practices vs the practical implications of their restrictions? As Jeffpi suggests, there are ways to work around using their interface, BUT that might mean you won’t be able to update to later firmwares down the

I like my Qidi plus 4, I have three of them, but I’ve had to make a few upgrades. (Swap stock hotend, upgrade mainboard fan due to MCU timeout, SSH into the printer to modify a few things, heat sink shield to combat heat creep). These aren’t difficult things to do, and I like that it runs on Klipper

I have a Qidi Plus 4 and I’m very impressed with the print quality. The part tolerances and overall finish are better than my P1S both before and after calibrations. There are a couple of “standard” mods that most users do for improved consistency and longevity. Unless they’ve changed something, the

Ok so I posted last week about this. The solution was the 80mm fan upgrade on the back (I also did the ultra light weight back on the extruder since it lowers the temp 20C). Basically the Qidi Plus 4 has this problem that it's not that well designed from the factory. It over heats. The heat from the

As you said - you have a print farm. Qidi Max 4 is the only thing more from that lineup that has better engineering capabilities than CC with chamber heater. Qidi Plus 4 is totally different printer and it's on par with CC with printing PPS. So looking from the hobby perspective - you have cheap, st

Ender has long since not been the best for new people. A few of their newer printers are decent, but not one of the super cheap and ancient ender3 derivatives. Flashforge, Sovol, or even qidi if you want to print narly shit is a better way to spend your money. Sovol still makes basic, low cost print

Been printing since 2018. Upgraded and love my plus 4. I bought on day one and it needed a lot of support but qidi is good about replacing parts. I believe any plus 4 from them comes upgraded from the factory now. So it should be a better experience then I had. My petg prints come out perfectly. Doe

As joedoe mentioned, budget is a critical consideration. Also, are printing parts with frequent color of material changes? How critical are things like support interface quality? If frequently needing high quality support interfaces to reduce post processing, the H2D is a strong option. You’d be fam

Qidi plus 4. Great prints.
