Comment on Creality K1 woes
discomatic@lemmy.ca 18 hours agoYou would think that would be the solution, but no - printer registers itself as a K1, no C or Max or anything else. That’s why I’m so confused.
Nozzles: a.co/d/aYVIVGY Hotend: a.co/d/1yqFogq
Neither of these work with my machine.

So is your printer using unicorn nozzles (s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EHOujRQ)? I believe K1C and maybe some newer builds of K1/Max came with those. I have switched to CHCB-OT (s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EJhmisG) it has a good flow and easy to find nozzles (MK8).

Link doesn’t work 😞
It is using unicorn nozzles, yes, but I didn’t know that until I needed to replace them. Thankfully, I was still within the return window for the $40 set I bought just in case. But shouldn’t I be able to tell which parts I need before they get here? How do I know what to buy going forward? What if I get something incompatible and can’t return it?

I don’t one why you’re asking me these questions. The link works for me - maybe it’s your adblocker. I believe it was only the extruder that was different. Creality support was pretty bad, but I’ve pressed them to eventually send me replacement parts when I needed them
