How do I get the sock off?

I have a clog or jam in the nozzle tip here somewhere and I can't get this rubber sock off. Does anyone have a video of what I need to tear down to remove that so I can take the nozzle out and inspect it? I've only had this thing 2 weeks and it's basic useless now.

Help me Obi Wan Kenobi(s)... You're my only hope.

My experience with Creality

​

So let me start by saying that I own an old ender 3 v2 printer that served me well but the constant tinkering and fixing was getting too much. So I thought to myself that it was finally time to retire the old thing and get something new that hopefully won't cause me headaches.

Everyone was pointing towards the bambulab a1 and after watching some reviews I too thought that it looked like a solid upgrade. But I also thought to myself that after all these years owning the ender, I could atleast check crealitys website. There it was, the SPARKX i7, the bambulab a1 killer/clone. Not to make the story any longer, on April 30th I went with Creality's SPARKX I7!!! it came down to faster shipping time (estimated 3-7 days) and the fact that bambulab is very closed source.

Big Mistake.

For the record, I live in Europe, in a Schengen member country, shipping from anywhere was never an issue for me.

I would love to tell you more about the sparkx i7 but the printer never arrived! AND as I have been informed by the customer service chat, I can't get my money refunded because the status of the order is "ready to be picked up by courier" and they can't cancel the order on their end. It didn't matter that the status has been stuck that way for literally 20 days.

So basically I got no printer, a hole for 339 euros in my wallet and a big L on my forehead for not getting the Bambulab a1.

KRATOS OLD SCHOOL STAND

Thank you so much for the incredible support on my previous Kratos stand post. It was really awesome to see so many of you asking for the classic Greek-era Kratos.

A lot of you requested the OG Ghost of Sparta - from the old school games. Well, here he is. I really hope I managed to capture the look and rage of the character we all grew up with.

I'm already working on something really interesting, so feel free to follow if you don't want to miss it.

Cancelled Deposit Reservation for Filament Maker M1 & Shredder R1...WHY (and with no warning)???

I woke up to an email this morning stating the $50 pledge I made towards the Filament Maker M1 and Shredder R1 was cancelled during the middle of the night and that I will be refunded...why was it cancelled?? Does this mean I'm no longer able to get it at the discounted price, let alone the additional benefits from the campaign milestone goals?

I'm mad because I've spent $$$ on Creality products over the years (and with this campaign I'm pledging to spend more) and yet this is what happens?

What printer should I get?

Hi yall. I currently have an Ender 3 V3 ke, and it’s been brilliant, but I’m looking for something better. I primarily want CFS compatibility, perhaps a slightly larger build plate, and a bit more reliability (my v3 has been fine, but a couple of issues have been annoying, fixed em myself tho) I’m currently looking at a SparkX i7, k2 se combo, or maybe even a used k1c. What would you recommend? Those 2 printers pretty much max out my budget. Thanks.

Possible extruder board issue?

So my fans "gave out" around 5 weeks ago, and I wasted no time ordering new 5015 fans. The fans finally came, and they do not work. I tested the pins for the fans with a multimeter, and they gave no output (while turned on!). tested on both fan ports and no output voltage.

Please help!

Help, K1SE print shift

Hello, I've become very frustrated and cant figure out why its doing this. The picture shows the start of the print in the center of the plate and after a few layers just shifts where it printing. Checked belts for tension and everything else I could think of. It does this on many different files. If I sit here and watch i can hear and see it just take off and go to the new area.

Thank you for the suggestions and help.

Is my Creality HALOT-X1 LCD damaged or is this just a settings issue?

Hi everyone,
I’m having a problem with my Creality HALOT-X1 and I’m not sure whether the LCD/UV light is damaged or if I just configured something incorrectly.

Could someone explain this to me

Built an OrcaSlicer test build with native K2 support — LAN auto-discovery + live CFS filament sync. Looking for testers before upstream merge

Hey K2 owners — I've been working on getting proper native K2 support into upstream OrcaSlicer, building on top of imammedo's PR #13291 (which adds Creality Print as a host type). Two follow-up PRs are open and I've put a Windows test build on the workshop site so K2 owners can try it without compiling.

What this build adds on top of upstream Orca

- LAN auto-discovery — click Browse... when adding a Physical Printer (host type = Creality Print) and your K2 / K2 Plus / K2 Pro shows up in ~5 seconds. No more typing IPs. Uses DNS-SD because K-series firmware announces itself under a per-device unique service name that OrcaSlicer's normal Bonjour browser can't match.

https://preview.redd.it/drpbx4v1o52h1.png?width=1051&format=png&auto=webp&s=c9c829db46489c19ea68cbd29d982c504441407d

- Live CFS filament-slot sync — click the AMS-sync icon and Orca queries the CFS over WebSocket, reads the slots (vendor, brand name, type, colour, RFID pressure-advance), and matches them to the correct brand-specific filament preset. No more "Generic PLA" placeholder when you've actually got Hyper PLA loaded.

https://preview.redd.it/49aioof4o52h1.png?width=467&format=png&auto=webp&s=fd9dddc765d5b327bca6684735025c45ed40280d

- 191 K2 filament profiles imported from Creality Print v7.1.1 — brand-specific presets (eSun PLA+, Polymaker PolyTerra, Hyper PLA, etc.) for K2 / K2 Plus / K2 Pro show up in the filament dropdown straight away.

https://preview.redd.it/71x32w0co52h1.png?width=539&format=png&auto=webp&s=7b0ec8cfe76aa23a273697786450f7f1b73551cd

- Klipper web UI as the Device tab — instead of the empty Bambu-only panel, you get your installed Klipper web UI on port 4408 (Fluidd on stock K2, Mainsail if you've swapped it) embedded in the slicer: camera, console, gcode files, macros.

Download + test

Single Windows zip, portable, ~154 MB, no installer:

https://harktech.co.uk/tools/orca-k2/

Verify with Get-FileHash against the SHA256 on the page (or against the companion .sha256 file).

Quick test path:

  1. Extract anywhere, run orca-slicer.exe (Windows will SmartScreen-warn — More info, then Run anyway; it's an unsigned binary).
  2. First-run wizard: pick K2 / K2 Plus / K2 Pro.
  3. Menu, then Add Physical Printer, set Host Type = Creality Print, click Browse... next to the URL field. Discovery dialog opens with your K2 listed.
  4. Sidebar, then AMS-sync icon. CFS slots populate.

Known limitations

- Windows only for now. Linux build is on the to-do list.

- End-to-end tested on a K2 Combo (F021, fw v1.1.260206). K2 Plus / K2 Pro should work, but I don't have one to verify — feedback from those owners is what I'm most after.

- Wi-Fi client isolation on some routers (mesh systems especially) will block mDNS. If discovery finds nothing, that's the first thing to check.

- Test build, not for production. May have rough edges inherited from the base PR.

How to help

The whole point of this is to gather real-world test signal so the OrcaSlicer maintainers can merge it with confidence. If you try it, please drop a one-liner on the relevant PR — "works on my K2 Plus" / "CFS sync missed my third slot, here's a screenshot" / etc:

- CFS filament sync — https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/13744

- LAN discovery — https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/13752

- The CrealityPrint host (the base everything stacks on) — https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/13291

Source

AGPL-3.0, full diff on my fork: https://github.com/grant0013/OrcaSlicer/tree/harktech/k2-discovery

If you'd rather build from source than trust a binary off a small site, that's the branch — two commits, both reviewable.

Happy to answer questions in the thread.

Anyone ever get a printer on aliexpress?

As stated I’m wondering if the site is going to send me a knock off or something? I’d love to get a printer on there I see crazy low prices but I don’t want to shell out a couple hundred for a knock off or never get the package.

New to 3D printing

Hi there! New to the community.
Looking to get into 3d printing, hence why here 😂. Cant decide getting the sparkx i7 or the K2 (standard) I like the sparkx because of its size. Things I’m looking to build are small tool accessories, and i see that PETG is good for this process. I’m an assuming, so far by my research, that the sparkx is good enough.

Any guidance is appreciated. Thank you

Creality K2 Diaper System

Just gave my Creality K2… a diaper 🚼

https://www.crealitycloud.com/model-detail/creality-k2-diaper-system

I designed a bottom tray system to catch filament debris, dust and all the tiny pieces that usually disappear under the printer.

The system is split into multiple parts for easier printing and installation.
To assemble it, simply align the sections, slide a piece of filament through the holes to lock everything together, then glue the flaps for a rigid final result.

Honestly, it makes the inside of the K2 look way cleaner and more finished.

Would you install something like this on your printer?
