Creality K2 Plus Startup, Printing and a Few issues (Part 2)
Hey everyone,
This video is meant to showcase some prints and address a few issues with the printer that will be resolved in due time. Overall, I’m really satisfied with the performance of this solid 3D printer!
I appreciate all your feedback, whether it's positive or constructive. I’m not a professional reviewer like the many esteemed ones out there whom I greatly respect. This journey is a learning curve for me, and I plan to share both the successes and challenges with you, along with the solutions I discover.
My goal with this video is to provide an honest overview of the printer and its capabilities as I experience them. Apologies if it didn’t meet some of your expectations. Thank you all for watching and sticking with me on this adventure.
Cheers

Creality K2 Plus Unboxing and Setup (Part 1)
มุมมอง 3.6Kหลายเดือนก่อน
So this video is the Official unboxing of the Creality K2 Plus. To all viewers, I understand that some of you may not like my video, and I appreciate all your comments, even the critical ones. Unfortunately, I broke my LED ring light, which is why the brightness is off. I wanted to get this video out quickly because many people requested an unboxing. I tried my best but didn’t have much time to...
Creality K2 Plus Teaser. (Full Unboxing and setup video coming soon) Stay Tuned

This is just a short video if the K2P in action. More videos to come soon
Poop is a matter of design and not the machine.
Michael, I just got my new K2 set up and trying to do my first print, a benchy. It won't print and gives me the message, "filament doesn't match printing file. Please check and restart printing." Im not sure what they are talking about. Is it set in the slicer and I have to use a certain filament? Thank you for your help... Jim
Jim, you have to select the filament type and colour in the machine itself. Make sure the filament you choose in the slicer matches what you have selected in the machine itself. Let me know if this helps
@@michaelcharles2224 It doesn't have the CFS with it so I just assume that if I put filament on the spool holder that it should work like my Ender3 v2 does. AM I missing something.
@@jimjohnson1944 In the option before printer, uncheck the enable CFS box. You have to tell the slicer that you are not using CFS. In the machine itself, do not try to use the Benchy which is multicoulored. Use the mono colour benchy
@@michaelcharles2224 I guess I'm not understanding, where in the machine can I type and color. I've scrolled all the places on the monitor and don't see a place to do this.
@@jimjohnson1944 On the machine itself. Click on Home- Bottom right corner, Click the filament . Click on Side Spool, Click the edit- Choose the filament type and colour.
I'm sorry. But since you're not hiding anything, could you please show us how loud the printer is while it is printing instead of putting music over it? I'm blind and would really like to know but I can't see it printing so I'd rather hear it.
The embargo is why I didn't buy one. No reason to get excited about buying one. Instead, they gave everybody a reason to wonder what was being hidden. Thank you for providing this information.
Interesting video and I look forward to seeing more ... as for the partial spools of filament, hey, with most printers you get a 10m coil so 4 partial spools is a bit of a win! 😀
Thank you for your comment. I have been busy lately but will be putting out another video beginning of next week regarding issues and fixes, prints, tips and more. Stay tuned. Have an awesome day
@ thank you and I wasn’t trying to pressure you - there seems to be lots of ‘bitty’ information on the K2 Plus so far but no actual solid reviews … is there still an embargo on TH-camrs doing reviews on it or something like that?
Man I’m jealous. I’m one of the lucky 200 too but still no printer apparently now will be the end of November.
Thank you for your honest rewiev. We need those. It is very common new product is having "childhood" issues, but once Creality will have feedback, they will fix the issues. Evolution makes mistakes in nature too. Prusa had their multicolor systems several years ago. In local school had one, but there was so much issues with this early system that they removed it. Yeah, the amount of poop is crazy. I think it is very useful with big printing projects where one spool is not enought and that you can use different support material.
Hi, did the file for the poop Shute come with the printer because I am expecting my K2 plus next month as I got it with a reduction in price on a pre order, thank you in advance.
New SUB here thumbs up you did good! I don't what I am buying yet thanks!
Thanks so much for your comment. Overall this machine is very good. Like every new product that hit the market, it may have a few kinks along the way but Creality will be there to support and stand behind their product!!! Replacement parts and upgrades won't be an issue unlike some other companies. They truly learned from past machines and mistakes other companies made so it is truly near perfect right out of the box. Hopefully you'll choose a K2 Plus :)
@@michaelcharles2224 Thanks for your time I just found part 1 I understand things break don't worry! TH-cam is a much bigger mess than most think! I kind of need a machine that make little to no nose, and I could only find two the K2 is one of them the K1 Max is a nice but the nose I would upset my neighbours because of where I have put the machine I have but one small to put it, and anything that sounds like a jet engine would not good well for me! Again thanks!
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Mine arrives around the 10th November.
@@anthony566 you going to love it once you get used to it :) Thanks for the feedback
And you welcome
Ok guys, had a CFS blockage this morning which I fixed and will be putting that in my next video. Stay Tuned!!!
awesome camera work, now I know what an LSD trip must feel like
Thanks for sharing Mike
Thanks for watching. Had a CFS blockage this morning which I fixed and will be putting that in my next video
HOLY POOP AND TOWER! Wow that's so much waste. The layer stacking doesn't look awful, but I'm a bit surprised it has issues with some overhangs. Seems like it prints reasonably overall. The size is nice. You definitely got a bargain though. The review embargo is truly bizarre.
Well i'm learning as I go along. Had a CFS blockage this morning which I fixed and will be putting that in my next video
the multicolor printing isnt magic.. it has to do a filament change everytime it changes colors. If you are printing 4 different colors on every single layer then that means 4 poops every layer. You could have used red or green filaments for the supports on the turtle print so you would have to do one less filament change every layer and that would reduce the amount of waste
Thank you so much for your input. Will definately try that :) Really valuable information!!!!!
Is this your first multi-color system? If so, then you'll pick up a ton of techniques that will allow you to dramatically reduce the poops (purge amount tuning, g-code customization for filament swaps, and even model techniques that can help reduce the number of color changes). I'll admit, though, that the #1 thing I use the AMS for is easy filament selection (it's embarrassing to say that things I should have printed in PETG got done in PLA just because it was loaded...and vice versa). The #2 reason (that the K2's size makes more important), is for filament backup. If you start getting low and aren't sure that you can finish your print with the spool that looks pretty low....just throw another of the same in and let it swap over when the little spool is empty. Also, if you don't care about the color....it's convenient for running out spool tails. :)
Thank you so much for your input. This journey with 3D printers has been quite the ride! I didn't keep the X1C for long because it broke within the first week, and dealing with Bambu's customer service was a nightmare. After a long wait and some serious persistence, I finally got the parts I needed. I fixed it and sold it almost immediately, so I didn’t have much time to play around with it. Someone handed me a broken X1C because they were discouraged, and after I fixed it, I sold that one too. Taking it apart was a nightmare, and its design didn’t sit well with me. But then came the 5 X K1 Max that I own, and now the K2 Plus, which have been a game changer. I’m excited about getting the CFS systems for each of my 5 K1 Max printers once they’re available.
I am putting mine on a sold wood desk I can stand on the desk so it going to be safe for the printer, it nice to see the LIVE setup Vs. hiding issues that come up
I am direct and transparent and take the time to show everyone as I go along :) I'm not here for Fame, I just want to share my views on the printer and be as transparent as I can be. Your comment is much appreciated. Thank you
Definitely something wrong with the slicing on the turtle. Why was there brown on the purge tower and the supports? I don't see any brown on the turtle. Was the infill brown? That would help explain the amount of poop.
No there was no brown in the file at all. Think it the brown and red together to build the tower made it come out brown. Infil was not changed at all.
Thanks for the video... bdarthe lighting is quite dark.
@@anthony566 so sorry about the lighting. My ring light broke but I did not let that stop me cause people wanted the video ASAP so I did my best with what I had :) Thanks for the feedback
can I send a print to the K2 remotely like I can a bambu or do I have to be on the same network?
You can send it remotely
Thanks for uploading. Good video. If you do do any calibrating I'd be really interested to see what you do and how you do it.
Will definately be doing more content. Subscribe in order to be notified. The Channel is neww so I will be building it slowly :)
Subscribed 👍
How do you have one so early? I was a very early buyer like within the first few minutes of the 50% sale but I don’t get it for another week or so.
I was in the first 50% off on day one as well. I guess it depends on where you are in the world. Mine arrived Monday morning early
Thanks for video. Where did you get files for poop chute and carosel
na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fm.crealitycloud.com%2Fmodel-details%2F6704df9dc42fe1d59f4d0c58%3Fsfnsn%3Dmo&data=05%7C02%7C%7C5b7bc389980b404f0c5508dcf5389d5d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638654870713147379%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=bY%2BZQV%2F4VSogs4la0WYNMw2Yert7lC6qFVIEgbMwCtE%3D&reserved=0
link to the Carrosel. The poop bucket came in the files on the printer
Then how did you get an early release of the K2?
I ordered on Day 1 at 50% off
Thank you for the videos, and also that you speak about the problems you found and showing detailed print quality. I should get my K2 Plus next month, so nice to know if it is good or not.
It is very good right out the box. Some issues but working with Creality to figure everything out. Will post another video on it next week. Like and subscribe to be notified when I posty future videos :)
Mike. Landscape mode bro.
I know I know. Sorry I was exhausted on only relized that the video exported in Portrait lol. Was going to remove it and redo it but decided not to but on my next video to double check. Sorry about that
@@michaelcharles2224 no worries hoping we don’t gotta wait too long. Not much out on the K2 Plus right now.
@@MrStrosty Soon Soon you'll get yours. Will be posting some more prints soon :)
Thanks! Been looking forward to this part two video...
Thanks so much. Sorry about the portrait though. Will do better next time
Thanks for the videos and your work. I think you spend hours for that. Great job. Regards from Austria /Europe
Yes I spent alot of time creating the content to share with everyone and trying to respond to everyone. Wilkl do a better vvideo next time and drink more coffee lol.Appreciate your comment .
You're great, just keep it up and ignore the haters
Much thanks for your feedback :) Really do appreciate it
So far your videos seem fine, just a dude spreading the good news about the hottest new printer. Keep up the good work man!
Thank you so much for your positive feedback. Really appreciate it
Michael - no need to waste your time listening to miserable/ negative keyboard warriors, you keep doing you! Thank you for the video, I appreciate the time that you took with both of these videos.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback. Much appreciated
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Did you have to pay import tax on it?
@@princeclucks5843 I paid taxes of Canada and Quebec, that's it
Sooo does this mean no more content embargo?
@@Nowen97 I am a consumer and confirmed with the right people. Embargo does not apply to me.
damn I'm already a bit jealous
Don't be. You'll get yours eventually. Thaks for the comment and happy printing
Thank you :)
You're welcome!
Thanks for doing a full video!
@@lornelorne5727 you welcome. Appreciate your input
Only 15 minutes in but really enjoying the video. You have a really easy demeanour whilst talking to the camera 👍
Very good in depth unboxing video. Really impressed with how well packaged it was. I must say though I always thought the 'free' rolls of filament were not full rolls.
Really do appreciate your feedback . Thanks for the compliment. :)
Glad you enjoyed it
OMG thanks for sharing with us, subscribed and wating for part two.
Will post one soon even though the trolls and negative people on here. Thanks for your positve feedback. Cheers
Thanks for yout time!
My pleasure! Much appreciated
Appreciate the video. Cant wait to see more!
More to come! Thank you
Thx a lot greetings from Austria/Europe
You welcome. Will be posting more soon. Subscribe to follow :)
To all viewers, I understand that some of you may not like my video and I appreciate and will not get mad of the bad comments, I unfortunately broke my Led ring light which is the reason for the brightness and wanted to simply get the video out there because I was asked by alot of people to do an unboxing and I tried my best and did not spend alot of time on editing so I did not fix the exposure. Please forgive me about that. I also had a video card failure during putting the video together so I did what I could with whatever I had to get it out there. I am not a professional reviewer like many trusted reviewers out there of whom I have alot of respect and admiration for. I simply put this video together to give an idea of the printer. Sorry if it upset some people. Cheers
The spool holder so you can use TPU, great video I got 40% US coming in November
I figured that much :)
You should have waited and not be the first one to make a review video. This was a waited of my time
It was not a review. I am sorry that you wasted your time. Although I appreciate your negative feedback, others did appreciated seeing it unboxed. Cheers
You`re just a troll! Start being more grateful, im sure you waste your time everyday, so thats not news for you!
Stupid comment. The video was exactly what it said it was - an unboxing video. Being unable to read you managed to waste your own time I would say.
It would be awesome to see the CFS on top of the K1 and K1 Max!
Will put in on top the K1 Max tomorrow just for giggles. It will be in the next video so keep an eye out
Still waiting on my printer. I was lucky enough to grab a 50% off unit. I agree that full spools would have been a nice bonus. Thanks for the video!
You'll get yours soon and you'll be impressed as well :)
They for sure from the start said half spools of filament. I can’t wait for mine to ship now. Good video.
Yes I may have missed that part about the spools but it sould have been nice to get full spools seeing that there was a delay along with the 10%.
Thabks for the video. More lighting would be a big help when trying to do an unboxing
My Led Lamp fell and broke just before the ideo but I did what I could with what I had :)
Good ol Q-bexk.
Yess good old Québec
