I think the "main" reason for locking down their fluidd fork so much is that creality doesn't want their average user poking around in the config, as while you are unlikely to physically break your printer, it is quite easy to render it non-functional unintentionally. Not giving the "average" user access to it probably helps cut down on support tickets. Having their "own" printer OS is nice, but as their interface is already a fork of fluidd, it is unlikely they removed these features for "branding". But I agree that they should probably have a way to re-enable these features without having to install moonraker/fluidd.

People that complain about locked down features have clearly never had to support the product on a large scale. The fewer options a customer has, the better. And if they know how, they can go nuts.

I picked up a k1 a while back once creality let us root it. I got mine on discount and I must say it has become my favorite printer. I had to do a bit to get it printing well but now it is the most reliable and best printer I have. I don't care for creality but I do like the k1 series. And this guy's install tool is constantly getting updated.

Makes perfect sense to have it locked down. A majority have no idea what any of the controls do. It would be a complete customer service night mare for anyone. Imagine they hop in and change pin numbers or states temp limits and burn down their home. Unfortunately companies are forced to do so mostly due to lawsuit happy people.

"Why do they do this?" In most cases the answer is "The user is an idiot." Engineers have to design product to the lowest denominator. And usually that means the User who is going to find every way to mess something up. Getting rid of the ability to make certain changes may inhibit the power user, but it greatly reduces the issues that the average user runs into.

Root access is the reason I picked up a K1, and only because it was on sale for $350. Otherwise, there are plenty of other options that perform the same for around the $400 price point. I guess I hit QC lottery and got a good unit, the only failed prints have been my fault due to not cleaning the print bed often enough.

I get why they do this at ship date, when the software is only six to nine months out of date. But two years later they are still selling units but now the software and firmware is three years old, and all the KZfaq videos the new owners are watching are referring to stuff that doesn't exist yet for that printer. It would also make sense if they added value, but usually they only subtract value by removing functionality to "simplify" things.

Hi, I just did this. It doesn't break any Creality stuff. You can use Creality cloud, creality print, whatever. I put FLUIDD and Mainsail. Trying both. I have never used either before.

For me, I now have one-click upload and print from OrcaSlicer, which never worked with any Creality SW. CrealityCloud would be...load webpage, login, wait, upload file, wait, select printer, wait, close some pop-ups, etc. Horrible.

It's not a branding thing. Marketing has to do with it in that the K series is a device marketed for beginners -- of course it's going to be "dumbed down". If it was a single button.. to many dumbasses would click it and cause a support nightmare. The "process" you have to go thorough isn't that big of a deal for advanced user -- it took you 5 minutes. My quesion is, "Did it fix the printing problem"?

Maybe this is different for Creality machines, but having superuser privileges and SSH access on a local network is not usually a security concern (this setup process is no different for normal Klipper machines)- assuming that you have taken the steps to secure your local network. I don't know if there's an option to change superuser password and username for the K1 machines but that's another option to secure.
@janboerschlein4 ай бұрын
@@Duckferd I am not sure what you can do with ssh access on klipper machines. But my concern is more that the password seems to be the same and if you are able to turn on heaters for example with this, that would be a very big security concern. I am sure you can change the password with a simple passwd or smiliar, but while with a normal klipper setup you pretty much have to go to ssh and can change that there, with the creality machines, you might not even know its there and basically open for everyone.
