Thank you for this working profile for Prusa Slicer ! it will help me run my palette 3 pro with the Creality K1 Max ! One small remark about your gcode substitution for the fans: you should use a regular expression to also replace the different speed and not only S255 Find: M106 S([0-9\.]*) Replace: M106 S${1} M106 P1 S${1} M106 P2 S${1} By the way I noticed that Prusa Slicer use M107 to stop the fan and Creality print use M106 S0 so I also added the following substitution (not a regular expression this time): Find: M107 Replace: M106 S0 M106 P1 S0 M106 P2 S0
Thank goodness for the 'pause' button! Done so fast us mere mortals can barely keep up 😅 But thank you, managed in the end with liberal use of 'pause' and 'rewind'
Kudos to Creality for publishing the open source code in September as promised. Kudos to Aurora Tech for quickly providing the How To guide to allow K1 users to own and control their 3D printers without the Creality Cloud nonsense. This is the K1 that should have been offered from the start. This makes me much more inclined to buy a K1 Max.
This is incredible. Creality had an open revolt with original Ender-3 users/buyers because the company was incredibly slow in admitting they were using open source and in releasing their source code and files. Now, by releasing code they may actually compete equally and in some use cases, overtake Bambu Labs in market share. Cloud slicing and printing may make beginner printing easy but the security risks may be too much for EU and US markets. Thank you, Aurora Tech, for producing this video! (Liked and subscribed.)
FYI - I had issues with the firmware image when I downloaded the repo as a zip file like you did in the video. If you look at 0:32 in your video after unzipping, the .img file is only 1kb. The repo is using git large file storage. You can either use command line to handle it, or easier to just go to the release folder in the repo, click on the .img file, and then on the page, to the right of the "raw" button, click the download button to download the raw file.
Thank you! I had the installation failed error when trying to upgrade the firmware, and didn't realize the file was only 1kb until I read your comment.
This K1 printer series suddenly became a whole lot more interesting now that it can use the full power of the Klipper ecosystem. It's also a game changer to know that it's not depending on Creality for updates anymore long term.
It still can't quite use the full power of the klipper ecosystem. The linux distribution in their firmware image is very limited and doesn't run most of the tools out there for klipper designed with full featured debian-on-raspberry-pi distributions. There's lots of manually setting up installations because install scripts don't work without a lot of the programs they're used to being able to find. We'll see though, it's something I'm working on.
@@destinal_in_reality what kind of difficulty do you experience? As long as it's running a Linux kernel and you have root (unless there's strict SELinux policies in place), you can pretty much do everything you want and there's no limit besides what would make it unbootable.
@@supercurioTube Right, it's all *possible* but nothing is easy like it would be on a raspberry pi or something similar running something debian based. The K1 runs init not systemd, most libraries and packages programs want aren't there, there's no apt / dpkg etc. It's really all the assumptions made by the installers that various dependencies will be there. We can figure out what those installers ultimately do, satisfy the bare minimums, manually put the files into the right places, but it's not convenient like with most 3d printer klipper boards.
@@destinal_in_reality I understand, thanks for sharing. It sounds like it would be easiest to stop everything stock getting in the way to free the devices and ports, get a debian chroot/container and run everything from here just like on a Pi, starting with KIAUH. What do you think?
@@supercurioTube I don't think a chroot would really be ideal for this, though it might be possible. I'm planning on making a new version of firmware that's fully featured like that on most raspberry pi 3d printer distributions where you actually login as a non root user with all the support for python virtualenv and sudo and that runs systemd and everything else that they're expecting so we can use KIAUH etc. I'm juggling a few projects at the same time so it may take me a little time but I think this is the best way to go ultimately. Also to turn off creality touchscreen UI and web server and run klipperscreen.
This so far has saved my K1 from being offloaded...This whole setup works well with OrcaSlicer as well using the OrcaPrint for the wifi connecting portion...so now I can slice and print to my X1C and K1 from the same slicer...what a time to be alive! If this slicer completely saves the K1 from being sold to someone willing to deal with Creality BS, then I'm gonna give it a try on the S1Pro that has been a headache from day 1. Thank you for this! I'm nowhere near this savvy!
@@marktaylor9616 Honestly I don't remember currently, but I recall it being just the same as what was posted here, just finding similar areas within OrcaSlicer. My K1 has been down since my initial comment and I only recently got the parts from Creality to get it running again, and there was an update and I built a new PC, so I have to go through the entirety of the setup again. The K1 is a hot mess and I'm glad I didn't personally buy it. I'm never touching a Creality product with my own finances again.
i was quiet sceptical if Creality would really go full open source, but it seems like they actually delivered. Thumbs up and my interest for this machine suddenly gained track again. But there's one thing i'd like to find out: is it possible to update the Klipper installation to stock Klipper or were the binaries somehow modified by Creality? In the past, there have been machines (i think it was Qidi) where updating Klipper to a stock version bricked the machine
Excellent, but I made one change: Under Print Settings -> Output options -> G-code substitutions: Find: M106 S([0-9]+\.?[0-9]+) Replace with: M106 S${1} M106 P1 S255 M106 P2 S${1} This will set the parts fan and side fan to any %, and the case fan to 255. Buy you can modify it any way you like. Then you don't need to force it to 100% as it will take any speed. Great Job!😄
@kyleh5498 Out of the box it's a bit of shit yeah. Dimensional inaccuracies, tons of vfa, some under extrusion, broken input shaping. Got it rooted, installed better screen UI, up to date fluidd, proper input shaping macros (including belt shaking), replaced belts, bearings on XY and idlers that drive the belts. The only remaining problem is VFA on X axis but it's still way better than it was out of the box.
Always amazing...and your voice is so soothing :-) Great work, have been waiting for this, the only real neg of K1 after sorting the extruder and feed tubing/cable chain
Thanks for the video. Simply showing where to find the IP address was a big help for me. The Creality isn't mine to hack but without the IP address I didn't know how to connect it to Orca Slicer. Orca Slicer can now connect to it without any hacking.
I did the steps but cant get my camera of the K1 max to work. is there a fix to this? tried all the options in camera and none works. even the creality slicer cant show it to me anymore,
Wow this is cool shit. Having been a sysadmin for the last 35yrs, I live and breath linux console. So even though I have NO idea what I'm doing printer wise, anything that requires console gives me confidence that I can do whatever is needed :D There was nothing difficult about any of the commands you did. But one question............ Can the image be reverted to factory (for example if I wanted to sell the K1 Max, I'd like to be able to reset it back to factory). Is there a factory image anywhere?
If I prefer Mainsail I can just sub it for fluuid? Great video as always, root access seems like dangerous ground. I hope Creality isn’t going to abandon updating the K-series?
You must be able to. You have root on the machine. You can run anything you want on it. It’s a question of how comfortable you are with installing something on Linux.
Did Creality remove the "release" folder from the K1_Series_Annex. That folder does not appear in the zip file that I just downloaded (Sept. 16, 2023 @ 6:22pm, CDST)/ Without the .img file, how is one able to access Klipper in its entirety on a K1 Max?
Hi Aurora, Kudos for this amazing video. Just a quick question related to the actual advantages of rooting the K1 Max today. Is it really worthed for a beginner perspective? What I will gain doing this now? Cheers from Brazil.
If you are comfortable with the Creality Print slicer, you don't need to root it. The primary reason to root it is for users who prefer to use their own slicer while still retaining the network printing feature.
this is a good development by Creality. I would like to install Klipper and Fluid on my old E3 and E3S1 but at the moment I can only do that with an external controller - ie a hacked Creality Box (which I have found not powerful enough for the purpose) or something similar. A motherboard swapout with wifi would be the answer I think to running Klipper natively on these older machines. Subject for future video perhaps? Thanks as always for posting Aurora Tech.
Every time I try to install the new update it just says "installation failed". I have tried a factory reset and restarted but it doesn't work. It's a K1 Max. Does anyone know what the problem is?
Any chance you can make a video showing us how to install timelapse and Kiauh? I've tried to follow other tutorials on this fluidd installation to no effect, so it would be much appreciated Thanks
Hi Aurora! Do you have salmon skin or ressonance problems with prusa slicer? Here with the stock firmware i only have great prints with creality slicer with same configurations in prusa slicer :(
No, since the K1 Max came with a camera, and I also installed the Creality camera for the K1, I may not need to install an external camera. Actually, the K1 camera costs only $19 on AliExpress or $23.4 on Amazon, which is not much more than the price of an unbranded webcam. It should work better with the machine and have a better appearance.
Some people have gotten other USB cameras to work, but I agree with @AuroraTech, the official camera is a USB webcam also and is quite decent and inexpensive.
@@destinal_in_reality Yep, I already have two K1s and two cameras from them. For monitoring it is fine and agree. It just pales in comparison to a nice camera for shooting timelapse videos with Klipper/Crowsnest/Moonraker-Timelapse. I'll figure it out and should have clarified when I asked, but I assume this info will help someone else, so all good.
Is there anyway you could give me a hand with this setup? I’m using your profile but even with my retraction set at .0001, the extruder is pulling the filament out. Can you suggest what I need to do to get this calibrated? Thanks!
If you are comfortable with the Creality Print slicer, you don't need to root it. The primary reason to root it is for users who prefer to use their own slicer while still retaining the network printing feature.
Since i can use my own slicer regardless, it appears the only benefit to root and install fluid is not having to upload files to the creality cloud in order to print them.
how in the heck are you getting the slicer to output that fast? I have every single speed setting set at 600mms and it always shows speeds between 35 and 278 mms, i can't get the fast speed
I am running at 600mm/s with just the parts fan running one both PLA and PETG and everything comes out just fine. I can't imagine having to have every fan on full blast. I am working in the same room with two K1 Maxes and it is not too bad with just the two parts fan. I would kill myself if I had all six fans running full blast. What am I missing or are mine magic?
It looks like the root access is only for network access? So we can use the prusa profile and just save to USB drive right? Last time I rooted something I broke it lol. Don't want to do that yet with my 24 hour old printer, but I hate creality print in it's current state.
I have one question ... does the LIDAR sensor also work after this event? I would like to make a profile on CURA, but I don't know where and how to start, would you like to help me?
What is your preference and opinion since your first test of the K1 Max vs the Bambu X1C??? which is more expensive?? i have Flsun V400 and i need better printer Thank you
@@AndrewAHayes I guess it's because there are too many problems, engineers are too busy, and they are afraid of hearing complaints... So... from a business perspective, this is a dangerous behavior!😅
bonjour alors je trouve que sa devrais être des le départ et non a attendre une code source pour, de plus il faut manipuler pour, et en prendre le risque que sa fonctionne pas non plus pour ma part je reste chez bambu lab bien plus aboutit sans y toucher merci a vous
Thank-You! This printer is big enough to print R2-D2's head in one piece so the R2-D2 building community will be very interested in this printer! @@AuroraTech
Aurora, your technical knowledge is amazing! I do work with Linux machines for a living and I didn't learn what root was until I was in university. You're doing awesome!
They still work when you print from Creality Print or the touch screen, but they don't (at least "LIDAR" does not) when you print via moonraker with fluidd or mainsail or with prusaslicer, orca etc.
Given the obscene number of benchies that get printed by TH-camrs testing 3D printers, it'd be really awesome to see environmentally friendly filaments be utilized and endorsed. Maybe you could lead the charge?
Not offended but I can ask for my cake and eat it too, can't I? Not that I can't handle it but I've gone through these machinations before. I've been tinkering with these printers for years - I just want to focus on what I'm printing now and these printers are gettig closer and closer to working very well out of the box. Quiet, fast and high quality prints with a decent slicer and no connectivity requirements with security concerns@@CapacitorCapacity
You won't in the future have to manually load an update, just click on the root access button. And I'm working on an easier GUI installer for stuff that will make this more convenient.
It really isn't all that bad as you just need to follow the instructions. I have never used linux, SSH, or raspberry pi before getting root access on the K1 and I was able to do it no problem.
Yes, buy a bambu and surport the thievery that those that run the company approve of. My choice was to not by spending my money with companies that are not into theft.
Creality has one goal: Be the cheap alternative leader. They could not accomplish such a goal with the expense of innovation and engineering weighing them down.
@@CapacitorCapacity Hi, Could you elaborate on your reasoning, not many people even dare to say this in an open forum. I am genuinely interested as I intend to buy a machine that can print ABS, but I don't know if I can justify the cost of a Bambulab printer because I will only sporadically print a few parts for my hobby.
Thank you for this working profile for Prusa Slicer ! it will help me run my palette 3 pro with the Creality K1 Max !
One small remark about your gcode substitution for the fans: you should use a regular expression to also replace the different speed and not only S255
Find: M106 S([0-9\.]*)
Replace: M106 S${1}
M106 P1 S${1}
M106 P2 S${1}
By the way I noticed that Prusa Slicer use M107 to stop the fan and Creality print use M106 S0 so I also added the following substitution (not a regular expression this time):
Find: M107
Replace: M106 S0
M106 P1 S0
M106 P2 S0

You must be able to. You have root on the machine. You can run anything you want on it. It’s a question of how comfortable you are with installing something on Linux.
I have not done it but others have. It seems to work fine.
In the same place as the instructions for fluidd, creality provides instructions and a package for mainsail. So, yes!

I'm struggling to figure out if we must root the K1 in order to run Orca or Prusa via remote print function in creality print.
If you are comfortable with the Creality Print slicer, you don't need to root it. The primary reason to root it is for users who prefer to use their own slicer while still retaining the network printing feature.
Since i can use my own slicer regardless, it appears the only benefit to root and install fluid is not having to upload files to the creality cloud in order to print them.
Will the max work with the regular cura v5.3?
Will all the fans be accessible after root access?
Thankyou
how in the heck are you getting the slicer to output that fast? I have every single speed setting set at 600mms and it always shows speeds between 35 and 278 mms, i can't get the fast speed
I am running at 600mm/s with just the parts fan running one both PLA and PETG and everything comes out just fine. I can't imagine having to have every fan on full blast. I am working in the same room with two K1 Maxes and it is not too bad with just the two parts fan. I would kill myself if I had all six fans running full blast. What am I missing or are mine magic?
It looks like the root access is only for network access? So we can use the prusa profile and just save to USB drive right? Last time I rooted something I broke it lol. Don't want to do that yet with my 24 hour old printer, but I hate creality print in it's current state.
Klipper will not start. I followed all the instructions presented here.
i wonder if this works with orca slicer?
Thanks for this ... very useful :)
I have one question ... does the LIDAR sensor also work after this event? I would like to make a profile on CURA, but I don't know where and how to start, would you like to help me?
Honestly Cura has abysmal Klipper support. I wouldn't advise it.
What is your preference and opinion since your first test of the K1 Max vs the Bambu X1C??? which is more expensive?? i have Flsun V400 and i need better printer
Thank you
If price is not a major concern and I can only choose one, my pick would be the X1C.
@@AuroraTech oki thank you 😊
If the new Bamboo Lab release is an AMS compatibille multiplexer for any printer then K1 owners will now be included!
That will NEVER happen
@@nickjeffrey8050 they already announced reveal at September 20 and distributed pre-production units to bloggers
ahhh😂
@@even1007 Creality have just unlocked the Sonic Pad as well, is this just a coincidence?
@@AndrewAHayes I guess it's because there are too many problems, engineers are too busy, and they are afraid of hearing complaints... So... from a business perspective, this is a dangerous behavior!😅
Great video, thanks
can this all be done through a windows PC? or is linux OS needed? i just want to be sure
Would this make the K1/Max a better option than the new Qidi models?
I have 7 printers on my recommendation list including the K1 and QiDi X-Max 3. Please checkout my website auroratechchannel.com
Well done!
Can you use klipperscreen in the stock LCD?
No, the screen can't run Klipper screen.
Does screen work after root?
bonjour alors je trouve que sa devrais être des le départ et non a attendre une code source pour, de plus il faut manipuler pour, et en prendre le risque que sa fonctionne pas non plus
pour ma part je reste chez bambu lab bien plus aboutit sans y toucher
merci a vous
Cant find the tar file
newest OTA firmware v1.3.2.20 comes with Root access
I just saw the COMGRO T500 3d printer!!!! that thing is HUGE!!!! 500mm x 500mm x 500mm PLEASE DO A REVIEW OF THAT PRINTER NEXT!
Coming next week
Thank-You! This printer is big enough to print R2-D2's head in one piece so the R2-D2 building community will be very interested in this printer! @@AuroraTech
MobaXterm doesn't work for Mac.
thanks 🌷
With klipper, moonraker, fluidd, etc etc... why would I ever want to buy a Bambu? Makes no sense
Aurora, your technical knowledge is amazing!
I do work with Linux machines for a living and I didn't learn what root was until I was in university. You're doing awesome!
Anyone know a mac alternative for MobaXterm?
What happens to the AI and LIDAR if you root?
I never use it even with the stock setup.
They still work when you print from Creality Print or the touch screen, but they don't (at least "LIDAR" does not) when you print via moonraker with fluidd or mainsail or with prusaslicer, orca etc.
might be a good idea changeing your root password
👍🏻👍🏻
not sure i'll comit but good to know...
Aren't you going to void your creality warranty?
I guess technically yes, but if you ever need warranty support, you can always restore the firmware to the regular one.
Given the obscene number of benchies that get printed by TH-camrs testing 3D printers, it'd be really awesome to see environmentally friendly filaments be utilized and endorsed. Maybe you could lead the charge?
I like the open source but man, the amount of effort to get to the promised land. Would really like a turnkey update solution.
If you think this is too much, don't you think getting off the stock firmware upgrade path may not be the best idea for you? No offense intended.
Not offended but I can ask for my cake and eat it too, can't I? Not that I can't handle it but I've gone through these machinations before. I've been tinkering with these printers for years - I just want to focus on what I'm printing now and these printers are gettig closer and closer to working very well out of the box. Quiet, fast and high quality prints with a decent slicer and no connectivity requirements with security concerns@@CapacitorCapacity
You won't in the future have to manually load an update, just click on the root access button. And I'm working on an easier GUI installer for stuff that will make this more convenient.
The video is to fast to follow
Wow, I'm computer savvy and this is a little much for an average user...
The average user won't need root access!
It really isn't all that bad as you just need to follow the instructions. I have never used linux, SSH, or raspberry pi before getting root access on the K1 and I was able to do it no problem.
@@BossGarage The average user might prefer mainsail or fluidd over the stock web interface, and to get there they currently need root access.
The average user does not 3d print
Root access on a 3d printer is like so ducking pointless
Well, there's only a root account. The point is being able to get access to the command line to install additional tools.
Just buy a bambu cause these machine are just a ender in a new coat!
Gotta be a legit fool to buy one
The K1 has full core-xy kinematics, so it's not just a fancy wrapper around an Ender.
Yes, buy a bambu and surport the thievery that those that run the company approve of. My choice was to not by spending my money with companies that are not into theft.
K1 is a legit rip off of bambu it’s actually funny… look at how that aux fan looks 😂😂😂😂😂 pffft
Creality has one goal: Be the cheap alternative leader. They could not accomplish such a goal with the expense of innovation and engineering weighing them down.
I prefer my K1 to my X1C.
@@CapacitorCapacity Hi, Could you elaborate on your reasoning, not many people even dare to say this in an open forum.
I am genuinely interested as I intend to buy a machine that can print ABS, but I don't know if I can justify the cost of a Bambulab printer because I will only sporadically print a few parts for my hobby.

this is great
