I never once set mine up with their Creality cloud app, you can skip that during setup and just do LAN and USB prints.
The key is to root it, which is really easy, then you can install Fluidd and have way more control during prints. You can even change your pressure-advance on the fly. There are tons of mods you can do after rooting such as these
from the looks of this post you can now use octoeverywhere on K1 printers

That’s great, thanks so much! Pretty much seals the deal for me.

Just don’t pay MSRP! They often go on sale for $700. Got mine for $680 before tax!
If you do pull the trigger, here is my Creality slicer profile for quiet, yet fast, printing: lemmy.world/post/10712707

Dude, you’re awesome! Yeah I actually just saw that Microcenter has them for $699 rn, matches full retail for the Bambu P1S and $100 cheaper than the Prusa Mk4 self-assembled kit, which are the other two I’ve been looking at. Pretty sure my search is over.

I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. The size of the max has been useful already. did 298mm tall print that would be impossible on those printers
