I have an ender 3 v2, upgraded the springs/leveling knobs, and slapped on an auto leveler. I do really enjoy the printer, but I’ve found between work and raising a toddler I just don’t have the time to tinker like I thought I would. I assumed I would need to do general maintenance, but mostly be able to just print things fairly regularly. Seems I mostly just re-level this printer and barely get to actually print things.

What I’m wondering is if the P1P is as “tinker free” as it is marketed. I don’t mind maintenance, cleaning and all that, but do want to be able to have an idea and just kick off a print job.

Thanks in advance, I could just be leveling it crappy all the time too. Wouldn’t surprise me if I am just missing some critical information or something on how to level and keep it leveled.

    You really can just print without tinkering. I would recommend to buy the textured PEI plate as well. It’s really an awesome printer!

      Man I’m really trying to not spend money and you’re making that hard. I have an ender 5 pro and even if the print speeds were the same the p1p would speed up printing exponentially just from the everything else associated with it.
