First, Try to clear the clog using traditional methods like the needle and a no-clogger. Sometimes you get lucky if you heat the nozzle, remove it and then lower the no-clogger into all 4 filament channels.

If the filament is stuck inside the printhead, try to press in the cutter arm to release it.

1. Remove the print head from the machine and power down.

2. Remove the power cable from the back of the print head.

3. Remove the 4 port hub from the top of the machine. If you still have filament stuck, go ahead and cut it so you can work.

4. Remove both cover plates from the front of the print head along with the bottom part cooling fan.

5. Flex the housing outward at the cutter arm so that the cutter arm can pop to inside of the housing and remove the housing.

6. Remove the 6 screws on the main body of the extruder cover and lift off the number display, gear detection sensor (see video) and extruder cover.

7. Clear any jam in the extruder. If jam is below the extruder (but not in the nozzle, continue on).

8. Remove the hot end screws on either side of the hot end and twist the hot end so the 4 port connection is visible.

9. Remove the 4 port connection by loosening the tiny tension thread and inspect the 4 holes for filament.

10. look down inside the heatsync to see if there is any additional filament trapped. you should be able to see the cutter blade when the cutter arm is depressed.

Ace 2 Pro UPGRADE installation for Kobra X. Video attached for your visual learners ;)

7 Easy steps to get 7 color printing!

The Version B Ace 2 Pro comes with the 4 port hub and filament detection module.

Start by removing all shipping materials and dumping out the contents of the white bag that is taped inside the Ace.

1. Place the Ace on the right side of the printer.

2. Attach the return detection module with the 4 port hub to the back of the Kobra X frame with 2 M2.5(provided) screws (the side nearest the Ace). Use an H2.0 Hex key tool. The single hole side should be facing upwards

3. Plug in the return detection sensor cable to the printer (the port on the right closest to the back)

4. Unplug the PTFE tube from the Kobra X #4 spool rack feeder and re-route the loose end of the tube through the oval slot in the Kobra X spool rack nearest to it and plug it into the top (single) hole of the return detection sensor.

5. Plug in the grey Ace-to-printer signal cable.

   4 pin cable end --> Printer (behind the display screen, along the right side of the printer, directly next to the USB port)

   6 pin cable end --> Ace (On the back, in the lower left corner)

6. Plug in the 4 other PTFE tubes (provided) into the bottom of the 4 port hub and then plug the loose ends of the tubes into the buffers at the rear of the Ace.

7. Plug in the power cable (provided) to the back of the Ace and into an outlet or power strip and turn it on.

Be sure your power strip can handle the load or your machines or it will not operate correctly (AT LEAST 15 AMPS).

Putting this out there in case anyone is interested in some tips.

What would YOU print? What was your favorite thing you saw printed on a U1?

Just a little test for u/kevin_ned

A few people had expressed interest in a vat lid, so I made one

See specs on the Anycubic store page. u/Fauxhammer

Spoiler: I am honestly impressed with the ease of use for this machine...still
