Let's see if the second ones any better
Maybe the first one was a dud. Let's see if this one's any better. Pessimists UNITE!!

It would probably make more sense if the white fila guide tube clip closest to the extruder was turned 180 degrees, which would shoot the PTFE tension towards instead of pulling the harness into the gantry rails.
While you're here marvel in the auto leveling capacity to utilize the mesh to smooth out imperfections /s
This thing is 3 wks old.
New to dual color slicing, not 3DP, so I do and don't know what I'm doing. Made a 3D text shaped void for the 3d text. Exported both as STL, the panel as one model and the letters as a unified model(all letters in one STL in the appropriate spacing and depth). Lined them up seemingly perfect in Anycubic Next. What am I missing? I want there to be no stray black in the white area. The resolution of the text looks great in slicer, but poor in practice- do I need to make the font size larger as well as any slicer configs to address cleanup?
The first one was with "purge into infill" (panel with one black insert from cat pic), arguably a stupid option for my goal of crisp contrasting colors. Somehow the second one turned out worse with that option off. How can I clean up the color contamination of black into white? Increase purge amount? Larger purge block? Etc?
This is for a low traffic lab media rack but I still want it to look clean so I know how to make future multicolor projects properly. I know I need to align the bottom text with the screw holes to match the layout of the top row, and move the arrow to the other end in the ALT call out.
Edit: 0.4mm nozzle, Creality PETG 236°C, 250-300mm/s, 25% infill, thin wall detect...
Kinda seems like a crazy oversight. Even when initially loading a spool, it cranks it down to the 4-in-1-out "clog sensor" then wheels it way back. The 1KG spools aren't suffering as badly, but it's still creating a mess.
This is my third print with a brand new KS1 so maybe I'm doing something wrong? (Not a newb to 3DP just coming from hyper accessible Reprap clones and this is my first time with something so closed source and ... Over engineered)
If they're talking about "perfect" 360° coverage, why is there still a dead zone(theoretically) directly below it, if it was mounted perpendicular to the ground (As depicted in their AI render mock up on product page)? There's Hikvision and Lorex cameras that have better overall specs than the better sensor, with onboard memory. A lot of the features they (RL) push are just software. I also dislike that they don't release that feature set (Pano + active track), for using multiple of their existing cameras.
Anyways, the price tag seems a bit steep. Banking on the novel aspect of 3 cameras (but only two sensors) in one and the wide view + active tracking.
I put together a sensor/spec comparison for the new Reolink OMVI 3i PoE, the E1 Outdoor SE PoE(I have 4 of these), five close competitors, and four other comparable Reolink models.

In cleaning/tuning these shears?
I was in a pinch so picked up the least expensive, closest option. The nylock is slipping, the blades are skipping, and my patience is ... Still eternal.
I think they were $43 on sale.
Clean em up and sell em for $20 and buy something better?
So don't delay.
Was on a $60/mo 2gig symmetric for a year.
It just ran out. Didn't like my new bill.
Shot my shot and it worked out.
