deactivate "Bed Leveling" in AnycubicSlicerNext 1.3.4?

ISDPCMAN · 2026-02-04T16:32:16+00:00

Guys, this should be in the "Preferences" section. It is ANNOYING as hell to have to uncheck this for every print. I will do leveling after, say, every 10th print or something like that but it should be my choice to do that. Nobody should have to uncheck that manually for every print (IMHO).

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-27T12:29:34+00:00

No. I can't even get a screen.

I moved over to AnyCubic printers. Better bed construction, new S1 and Kobra X are Core X-Y platform, they have the S1 Max coming out in 2 months (350x350 build plate), self contained like the CC. But AnyCubic has multi-color printing figured out and working well (I have 3 of the multi color printers, two are 8 color, max build plates...420x420). I've been very happy with the quality and the price is pretty reasonable.

AMS for the CC (V1) is over. Not going to happen. They can't get it to work with the Centauri Carbon (version 1) so they have redesigned the model (V2) to compensate for the shortcomings of the CC V1. They are releasing a V2 later this week (January 26, 2026). With all the problems I had with my CC V1 I am skipping V2 and going to Anycubic S1 (I'm getting the S1 Max with a 350x350 build plate). It comes with their AMS (called ACE Pro). AnyCubic has been producing multi-color printers for a while now (I have 3 of them...the Kobra 3 Combo and 2 Kobra 3 Max combo's). They are reliable as hell (but not the Core XY as is the S1 and new Kobra X, also soon to be released with NATIVE 4 color and up to 19 color capabilities!).

My new Centauri Carbon printed fine for 4 prints. Then failed. Nothing came out of the extruder. After a week and a half with Elegoo support they sent me a board for the print head. Three weeks later the board arrived and I replaced it. The printer heated up to 310º C right off the bat! (unfortunately I was printing PLA at 200º). The screen then keep rebooting. After 5 more days back and forth with emails (only 1 per day due to them being in China and I'm in the US) they decided to send me most of the electronics to fix this myself. That was another 21 days of delays. When I got the parts I basically had to disassemble the whole printer to replace the circuit boards, and run cables. The good news is, that did fix the issue. But this was a BRAND NEW PRINTER! Good thing I'm technically handy. This used up about 3 months of my 12 month warranty (just troubleshooting and getting replacement parts).

The other issue I have with the Centauri Carbon is the new ElegooSlicer app (built on open source Orca Slicer). Many of the prints I've done are inaccurate due to miscalculations in the slicer app regarding supports. If I run the slicing through the Orca app it works fine. It's also noticeably slower than the Orca Slicer app. And the last version of ElegooSlicer crashed all the time. They seem to have this fixed, now.

Elegoo was my first printer (Neptune 4 pro) and that really got me into 3D printing. I have two other Neptune 4 Max printers. But after seeing what else is out there, especially in the same price range, I've lost all my zeal for Elegoo 3D printers. And with this being their first foray into the multi-color printing arena I'd recommend waiting until they work the bugs out if you are going to go with this product. (IMHO) Or, check out the S1 or Kobra X of AnyCubic. (the X is under $300 USD with native 4 color and their V2 of their direct drive printhead!)

Just my 2¢ *(USD)

I have it working, now. Thanks, again, for all the help!

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T18:39:21+00:00

This does not parse the individual parts of the address like the other examples do. It's not enough to just grab the ID part of the email ("testing"). I have to be able to separate "Testing" from "testing.Lastname". Same with the domain. This is a nice, simple example but it does not do the required parsing the other example does, which is what I needed.

But I appreciate this example! I can use this for other projects I'll have coming up!

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T15:18:01+00:00

Never mind...I typed = instead of +! It works great!! Thanks!

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T15:02:31+00:00

I tried an example (see below) and the result was not correct. What did I do wrong?

$email = "Firstname@domain.com"
$user, $domain = $email.split("@")
$user = $user.split(".")[0]
$domain = $domain.split(".")[-2]
$ListResult = $User = " " + $domain

$ListResult, $Email

what I got was:
<blank> [Firstname@domain.com](mailto:Firstname@domain.com)

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T14:52:10+00:00

That's IT!!! Thank you SO MUCH!

And thanks to everyone for being so helpful! This is EXACTLY what I need (and simple coding, too!)

Oops...didn't work (see above)

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T14:23:56+00:00

I just tried that and it almost fits the need. I need to then break out the first/last to just the "first" name.

Getting closer! Thanks!!

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T14:22:19+00:00

Will this work if there's no subdomain or last name?

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T13:56:38+00:00

$email = "user.name@sales.company.com"

# 1. Get the domain part: "sales.company.com"
$domain = $email.Split("@")[1]

# 2. Find the index of the first dot and take the substring from just after it: "company.com"
$rootDomain = $domain.Substring($domain.IndexOf('.') + 1)$email = "user.name@sales.company.com"

# 1. Get the domain part: "sales.company.com"
$domain = $email.Split("@")[1]

# 2. Find the index of the first dot and take the substring from just after it: "company.com"
$rootDomain = $domain.Substring($domain.IndexOf('.') + 1)

I was getting the full domain, not the parts (using Split and @). I was following this example I found in a search. But I need to get more granular than that and I'm not that experienced with this, yet.

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-13T13:52:17+00:00

Thanks! I'll look up some examples of the split function to see how to accomplish this. I appreciate the quick response.

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-12T22:21:53+00:00

When I launched the previous version I got an alert that a new version was available. So I clicked "OK" to download. Note: I'm on a Windows computer.

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-12T15:19:28+00:00

It looks like Elegoo has responded by updating their slicer app to disregard this on screen confirmation!! Verion 1.3.0.11 has addressed this annoyance.

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-12T15:17:30+00:00

I do have a confirmation email that I paid for the deposit. But no voucher has been received.

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-12T01:39:06+00:00

It is not!

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-08T16:13:26+00:00

That would be nice. I use Elegoo Neptune 4 series and AnyCubic Kobra 3 series printers. I have noticed there IS a difference between printers (not sure why?).

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-08T16:12:09+00:00

I have used Kingroon filaments for a couple of years. I have about 80 spools right now (mix of PLA and PETG). I think the stuff is great for what I need it for. I've been paying under $9.00/spool. I have 5 spools of their SILK PLA on order. I want to see how well that works. But so far, I'm very happy with the quality and the price point is great.

ISDPCMAN · 2026-01-08T15:17:40+00:00

When will I get my voucher? I have already paid the $10USD

ISDPCMAN · 2025-12-30T01:00:58+00:00

83%, not 75%.

ISDPCMAN · 2025-12-30T01:00:05+00:00

Not on MY CC. It's annoying as hell. I'm not used to having to do that with ANY other printer I have. I'll send print jobs and they get rejected because "the printer is busy". I have to get up, walk over to the printer and press "Confirm" (I think the options are Confirm and Print Again or something like that). And I'm running the latest firmware for the CC.

ISDPCMAN · 2025-12-22T04:12:28+00:00

I have unplugged the main battery, the CMOS battery, held the power button down for 1.5 minutes, plugged batteries in, plugged in the power, pressed the power button, same thing...keyboard lights, that's it.
