Neptune 4 Plus / Max OrcaSlicer
🕑 Added 2023-10-08 19:34:45 +0000 UTCHeya folks
Stupidly busy trying to get some videos prepped for the Neptune 4 Plus & 4 Max
Having some issues with my 4 Max / pretty sure it’s coming down to my print settings and still trying to dial things in for the beast of a machine.
But man oh man is my Neptune 4 Plus working great right off the bat.
I’m also playing around with Orcaslicer & more than likely going to be cutting over to it as my primary slicer. So stupidly easy to work with & manage profiles. I also can easily connect to my N4 Plus and n4max wifi to send prints / monitor the print job. Really damn cool.
Hopefully will have my N4 Max video up later this week & the n4 Plus next week
Will be sharing my profiles here as well. Might go ahead and upload early versions of them as I know some peoples printers have already shipped.

Question on LCD screen 4 pro it doesn't read sd card I've tried 3 different cards
James Dalgetty
Did you find them? I am here for the same thing. I have a N4M, and looking for some profiles to help me out a bit with Orcaslicer.

I am still having trouble leveling the plus any suggestions

Is there a profile for the Neptune 3 Max for orca slicer? Would love to have one 👍
Pete
Any fix on the string for the plus yet
DrakonSlayer
Just got mine setup. Any luck with a profile for Orca yet
Jonathon Miller
Any update on the Neptune 4+ profile?, or honestly like a setup tutorial vid? Mine came in and I can't seem to get it working properly.

Have you had a chance to upload any profiles for the 4Max? After a month of basically rebuilding the machine and using Elegoo Cura, it's time to see if it can actually print something other than tests and Buddahs.

pay and no response yikes
Dylan Wiley
I was gonna get the 4 max but my desk wouldn't be able to utilize it since j already have the neptune 4 and the 4 plus on the way ( new hobby for me)
Brian Greenman
How do I go about adding the N4M profile to my printer?
Mick
I joined today and I also can't find the Neptune 4 Plus profile. Very disappointing.
Michael Hagianis
Does anyone have print profile for elegoo neptune 4 plus please
Michael Hagianis
Hi I just paid for the patreon membership to find orca slicer profile and its not on here can you please assist
Jabr Net
Thanks!
Uncle Jessy
Hey there, sorry it’s under the $2 plan along with all of the other slicer profiles
Jabr Net
Um... Just wondering since I'm not the only one who signed up looking for the N4M profile for Orca.. Is it posted here once done or is it locked behind a higher paywall? Thanks
Jabr Net
I would just like any flippin profile because I can't get the cura slicer to work on my linux machine and show the N4M profile. :( But I get it, he want's to be sure it doesn't bork anyone's unit
Steve Johnston
Thank you! I also see it in Jesse’s video once I paused the screen. Elegoo must have a typo in their FAQ as they said there wasn’t one. So glad there is!

Hello Steve, I received my Neptune 4 Max on Monday and it does include a filament run out sensor. I was pretty sure the Plus model had one as well. Unless I am crazy and what I am thinking is the sensor is something different since I have never had a printer with a sensor.
Steve Johnston
Hi all! This is my first post as a new member and a return to 3D Printing (I first printed with the MakerBot about 7 years ago in a Private School Setting as a Teacher). I have a question about the Neptune 4 Plus - I ordered one today (Yeahhhh) but I am confused as to why there is no Filament Run Out Sensor on either of these new units? Is this no longer needed as the Hot End is handling this with a sensor? Other than where I am going to put the beast, this has me a tiny bit worried. Thank you all!
Uncle Jessy
Yes! Sorry I’ve been tinkering with the profiles. Running one last print test then uploading them
Brett Elmore
Ant updates on the 4 Max yet???? Mine is being a pain
Jabr Net
Hmmmm... I also joined because of this specific title... Would be great to get the profile up!

I was able to get my Logitech camera working on the 4Max in the USB port. Even running Obico with successful (verified) detection of failed prints. Basically required SSH and a few simple command lines to enable the service, then it worked great. Followed the Obico install guide here: https://www.obico.io/blog/klipper-camera/
Cody Davis
He said that 5 days ago they'd be "going up in a few" I think a lot of us joined specifically for a 4 max profile for orca and we are still waiting for it. Im fine to wait but I understand why chuckkay has his complaints
NikKnack
He never said they were out already said he was working on them and they should be posted soon
Taylor Rockey
press x to doubt the upload tonight.
chuckkay
Also figured out how to access fluid UI via hostname and not just ip address
chuckkay
Well i figured out how to install mainsail but had to put it on a different port because was scared to uninstall fluid… and it turns out it was a good call, because mainsail is not fully functional unless you upgrade klipper and moonraker, which im told not to upgrade as it will break everything and will require a refresh of firmware and cfg files…. Too bad because i am not used to fluid.. mainsail does work but missing some features without the upgrade

Here's the Orca Slicer profile I've cobbled together for my N4Max. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fw54ax08d9hp7o8lwgzf1/N4M-OrcaProfile.zip?rlkey=lsny16sscr29z75uifimpoipw&dl=0 (At least I'm pretty sure it's in that file -- it'll say there's no geometry, but it should bring in printer, filament (calibrated on Elegoo's red PLA) and 0.2mm fast print with a 0.4mm nozzle. It's not quite perfect yet, but it works and it's pretty fast. Should be a good basis for tinkering.
corey wright
he said hes putting it up tonight no worries man :)
chuckkay
Umm.. 1) just joined on the premise and misleading title that there were already orca profiles for the N4M.. it’s only 1 dollar, but certainly feel like I got the bait and switch. Considering the lpost was 12 days ago. 2)also not thrilled with Elegoo or any 3rd party for that matter not selling these proprietary nozzles…. 3) I know Jessy has mentioned he’s no klipper expert, and I don’t trust the ferrial engineer as his files really messed up my N3M… so if anyone can point me in the right direction specifically for klipper on N4M, im looking for how to 1) switch from Fluid to mainsail (cant get Khuila to do it. 2.) get my logitech camera to work while plugged into the N4M usb jack. 3.) load the klipper page with a name instead of ip address…. All things i was able to do with my N3M modded with a raspberry pi… any experts you can refer me too?

Their discord is basically a user support user operation.
corey wright
I have not seen them so i dont think so :(
Joshua de La Torre
Have the profiles been posted yet ?
Cody Davis
Seems like a few days lol
Paul McNally
a few....minutes....days.... months...years (printer hasn't even arrived yet and I am still giddy!)
corey wright
will it be in the pinned section or a new post?
Cody Davis
Excited to try the 4 max profile, its working well enough but I really wanna dial it in now
Twisted Prints 3D
I just signed up for you’re patreon can’t believe it took me this long lol. Just got my Neptune 4 max last night and just using the basic elegoo cura profile their printer is insane. Can’t wait for your orca slicer profiles as that is the main slicer I use on all my printers including my bambu’s and Kobra’s
corey wright
woooo cant wait man you are the best!
Uncle Jessy
Yup!!! Will be uploading in just a few!
corey wright
any update on the profiles? got mine and want to setup orca :)
Michael C.
I'm patiently waiting for the content and profiles. The ones publicly available are way slower than the Elegoo Cura ones.

is it available now?
Tom Hansen
my N4Max is ready and waiting for your Orca profile. Thanks for doing this.
Dylan Williams
I've also switched to Orca for my 4 Pro and loving it. Will be great to try your profile too.
Scott DeCleene
I just ordered the N4 Plus last week.
Jasani Whitehead
What’s the footprint? Need to make sure I have enough shelf space in my mini farm lol

If you find a moment, I would watch a video about Orca Slicer and why you like it. 🙏
Redbeard
I'm still fighting my bed probe on my 3 plus elegoo hasn't really been a help at all
ChrisCreates Prints
Difference*
ChrisCreates Prints
Cool cool. Have you tried comparing the n3 max vs the n4 max with same print? Just different speed to see how the quality is compared? And the time sifference
Uncle Jessy
Yeah for orca slicer! There are some base profiles in the slicer for all the n3 printers. But I want to see if I can migrate mine over for it
Uncle Jessy
It’s a beast 😂🤣
Uncle Jessy
Yep! I believe it has a profile built in for the Neptune 3 printers. I’m going to try and buildout my own as well
ChrisCreates Prints
Can you use the slicer on the neptun 3 max aswell?
Jasani Whitehead
Anxiously awaiting your review vid of the 4 max!
Wayne Nero
I saw it on his google drive share
Beatbot

Redbeard

Wayne Nero
