The Creality K1 Max is one of a new breed of fully enclosed, super fast 3D printers. It comes pretty much ready assembled and requires almost no setup. It has WiFi, Ethernet and a webcam built in which makes starting and monitoring prints extremely easy. It uses its webcam and a LIDAR sensor for a number of AI features intended to improve print quality and reduce failed prints. I’ll run through its features and thoroughly test all of Creality marketing claims to see if this is the right 3D printer for you.
