    Since Elegoo announced the Giga with larger nozzles, I'm optimistic that they will be available at least by next Spring when that's supposed to be available. I have a 4Pro and was considering adding this, I'm using the Neptune for rough drafts before doing slow AF final prints in my BCN W50 and have had a ton of issues with supports, stringing and under extrusion so I think I'll be waiting for now to see the status of larger nozzles and sorting out slicer issues. I dislike Cura and will have to look into Orca, unfortunately the BCN also uses a skinned Cura and it's been hard to find an alternative that lets me do enough tweaking to supports to ensure successful prints and can support the IDEX on the BCN. Thanks for these reviews, it's super helpful to sort through all the options!

    I have an Anycubic Chiron with a huge bed. My solution was to build a wooden wheeled cart with heavy locking wheels. That way you can roll it out of the way when not in use or wherever you have the space for it when you are printing. That way it does not take up valuable counter space. The shelf underneath can hold tools, filament, etc. Maybe you can collaborate with a woodworking creator like Bob from "I like to make stuff?"

    My Neptune 4 Pro has been running almost nonstop since I got it probably six weeks ago. It's great. The only issue was the LED on the print head dimmed to almost nonexistent after 100 hours of ABS prints directly over a 110 C print bed. I'm waiting for Elegoo to make a Neptune 4 Pro Max with steel rollers on steel rails. I think that will be a significant improvement for print quality and reliability on a fast large format printer that is accelerating a relatively heavy print bed. Elegoo should have used a Volcano compatible nozzle for all of the Neptune 4 series. They all print the same materials at the same speed. Making proprietary high flow nozzles when there is already a standard is not customer oriented. It's not as bad as some of the proprietary stunts Qidi has pulled that convinced me not to buy any more of their printers (I bought seven), but it's still needless market complexity and hassle that we don't need.

    Have this printer myself and love the results but had a couple of issues. First the gantry wasn't square, I actually had to shim it to get it truly square. This was causing me to have inconsistent layer heights as the print got higher. 2nd the bed sensor doesn't give a consistent z on home. I frequently have to change the offset +/- .1mm to get a good first layer. 3rd... they used a very old distro of Debian that will not support updated versions of Klipper and the Fuidd interface they have chosen gives incorrect data like stating the start time of the print is the projected end time. Of course because Debian is so out of date, the arguably best choice for camera support, Crowsnest can't be installed. The included camera support will keep the camera up for an hour or so but will need a system reboot to bring it back once the camera is shut off by the system. I put in a ticket with Elegoo and they were very insistent that nothing of the software be changed and the z sensor is working as intended. With all that being said, it's a good printer, it just needed a little more tech savviness on the software end in my opinion.

    Personally was having issues using orca slicer, the profile I had set up reset itself. And it didn’t have the best quality. Then I used the elegoo version of cura the printer has on its thumb drive and my prints have been coming out pretty nice. I’ve only used pla with it for now. For other materials I’ve been using my x1c. For a giant bed slinger it’s not bad. First layer offset has been my biggest issue, I usually need to mess with z-offset on first layer every time, bit annoying. The x1c has spoiled me.

    I've had mine for a about 2 weeks now. I'm enjoying it so far but it does have some quirks I hope get sorted through a firmware update. I've experienced the z offset issue you mentioned but it's very random. I've been printing out the large parts of the Robot Devil model from Droid Division over the past few days and the printer has been on the whole time, z offset was consistent til this morning when all of a sudden it needed to be adjusted up by .08. The size of the bed makes it very prone to big movements from temperature change so like you I am glad it has the leveling wheels. The Elegoo Cura is a big turd, I wish they would just come with finely tuned profiles for the more popular slicers. The potential for this machine and what it can enable me to do are tremendous. This printer combined with the Creality K1 I picked up a week before this arrived have transformed me back into a maker instead of a 3D printer. Which is incredibly freeing to have such reliable tools.

    I also have this printer. Been having the same issue with the Z offset, and a myriad of other issues. The Z offset issue actually scratched up my print surface real bad, and I had to buy a replacement. This machine with that issue and the complete lack of profiles or info to make your own is truly not ready for release. The amount of hours and filament I have wasted to tune it, only to realize that no matter how well I tune it, I still have to be there to manually adjust the bed and Z offset at the start of every print, and if I’m not fast enough then I have to cancel the print and start over. I’m really disappointed. The hardware seems good, but this shouldn’t have been released, it’s half baked at best and a huge headache. I want it to get fixed, I want it to get good, but I’d suggest to others that it’s not ready yet so maybe hold out on buying until you hear these teething issues are fixed.

    For anyone wondering: maximum quality print / resolution / layer height for the Neptune 4 max in the Elegoo Cura software is 0.12mm. Profiles are 0.12 High quality, 0.16 Normal Quality, 0.20 has 3 profiles: Fine Quality, Fine strength and Fine fast, 0.24 Medium Quality and finally 0.28 Draft Quality.

    in order to level small portions of the bed, try putting notecards or small slips of paper (obviously smaller is better) between the build plate and the magnet where you have low spots.

    Hi Uncle Jessy. Great video as usual. I finally received my elevo Neptune 4 plus printer this morning and to my great surprise one of the brass nuts (endless threaded bars for Z axis) is loose. The 2 screws that hold it are barely tight and therefore leave some play. On the other hand, they will be perfect. Is this normal? did you have the same thing on yours? Thank you for your help and see you soon. Victor😅

    basically smaller nozzles much more detail, but take much more time to print, bigger nozzle faster print, smaller detail, but depending on what you want to print like simple shape, doesn't benefit smaller nozzle, it safe a lot of time print bigger thing using big nozzle

    Like the old Anycubic Chiron (400x400x450), I look at these large scale bedslingers and really, really want to turn these into voron, vzbot, etc. But would it be cheaper just to build completely from scratch or mod these? The main reason for swapping into a Core would be resonance frequencies changing as more material is added to the bed. Slinging your product instead of your tool head invites problems.

    So just a counter to the “mystery” $1200 printer: 1.) it’s sibling can be bought for much less with pretty much the same performance and 2.) Elegoo’s biggest problem is in their eagerness to release new machines, they tend to forget the printers that have come before them. Firmware updates, upgrades etc? Forget about it. If you want that you’ll need to buy their new machine. Make no mistake, elegoo can make some impressive machines, I was blown away by their Neptune 3. Less blown away by them dumping the product like a hot coal 3 months after release so they could support the Neptune 3 Pro. It’s something they have to really work on in my opinion. That said, I still think bang for buck, considering size, this printer is hard to beat. Just please support them better Elegoo!

    Just measured my 4 Max, the full sweep of the bed is 37 inches full back to full forward. It's 27.5 inches wide and 30 inches tall without the spool holder, I've got it on the bottom shelf of a 48" x 24" shelving unit and had to put a 2x4 on the floor in front of it to give it enough room to move. It's a beast.

They have only been very small intricate prints and generally it is a first layer issue or fails very early. I still would like a larger print volume sometimes than 256 Cubed. 😁
