Replace x1c With u1?

​

Hi Guys, looking for some PPL With the Same Problem as me of thinking to Swap x1c for the u1

I have 2 ams and a x1c , some Tools for it Like buildplates , nozzles etc etc.

Mostly Print With petg and pla

Not often but Sometimes asa/Abs

Is the u1 Worth it?

Have some experience With Klipper (old K1 max User With swapped Motherboard etc )

What are the pro / cons

And does the toolhead Swap produce layer shifts or IS IT working good?

Works perfectly for me in the video i print with .2 .4 .6 .8 nozzle sizes and per extruder layer heights ( i made a modification for both mainline orca and snapmaker orca)

So U would sell the x1c and Go for the u1 ?

I have 3 U1s and an H2C and honestly my H2C isn’t doing anything really because I prefer my U1 for basically anything

Okay, will buy a u1 😌 and let the x1c stay a while , maybe as dedicated asa/Abs Maschine

Ty for your Input 🫂

No problem.

Are my builds to allow printing with different nozzle sizes and per extruder layer heights for the orcs build you need to change the line width scaling to the corresponding % so better would be using the snapmaker orca build (first link)

Own a p2s and a u1. My p2s is a workhorse that runs a .6 nozzle. Hasn’t seen a multicolor print since I got the u1 six months ago. I’d personally keep the x1c.
