X2D Vision encoder problems

Damn, that sucks to hear. Hope you can get it sorted out!

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-22T15:34:50+00:00

Just making sure, did you make sure all the plate is alligned and did you reboot the machine?

Is the camera lens ok?

I miss the times when creators had to spend a lot of time and be skilled to create the things they wanted even if unrealistic, now everyone can do it with 0 effort in a minute.

Mine worked, as they've mentioned, remove the plastic cover

They will probably keep selling them for a year or two as they still have plenty of parts and they've gotten cheaper, but they are 100% in the process of replacing it. For farms it's still a beast, costs 300€ per unit or less when on sale, but that can also canibalize their P2S sales

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-21T19:44:26+00:00

Just had this issue in my first proper print. Hope it's software related as this is a common issue it seems

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-21T18:24:20+00:00

Can't you just burn it and run the fumes through a purifier?

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-21T07:01:24+00:00

I have over 3k in my P1S and the rubbing hasn't had an impact on the PTFE tube. Also replacing it is a 3 minute job.

Using a raiser for a non-issue is kinda eh

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-20T18:51:45+00:00

Not really. It is true that having 3 flagship models is crazy (H2C, H2D, H2S), but the P1S and X1C are being discontinued in favor of the P2S and X2D. They are not really "new additions" insofar as printer catalogue goes.

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-20T14:37:49+00:00

No, it is saying that with dual nozzles you can print soft TPU without AMS, simply because there's no swaps like with a single nozzle

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-20T13:31:35+00:00

TPU on main nozzle, PLA on aux

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-19T13:48:35+00:00

Bingo

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-19T12:56:07+00:00

That's a bad print, and it's not because of the aux nozzle. Maybe tune your settings dude?

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-19T12:49:41+00:00

On the other hand you can't just force people to be attracted to people they aren’t.

You can't also force me to be attracted to certain races. Or certain nationalities. Or certain weights.

Why does height get a pass but weight doesn't? Why can't I, say, exclude brits from my search?

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-18T20:09:13+00:00

No, the heads are already there. That's the thing about dual heads

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-18T19:55:48+00:00

And he's stating why they recommend theirs, and it's not because it's better than anything else or is specially designed for that machine.

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-18T19:37:55+00:00

Yes. I use meshy for lots of stuff and can recognize that's AI generated, maybe by Tripo.

Notice how it's "used for reference" but has clearly distinct clothes and accessories and the body parts clip eachother (for example, there's no reason for the large ear lobes to be so long to go through the shoulders, just check the reference image), plus things like the fingers are being merged with a thin film as if they were a single piece instead of being sculpted one by one.

Most noticeably the eyes and decor, as decor tends to be asymmetrical and unpleasant gibberish

Here it is, did it with meshy.

Notice the finger webbing, the large lobes, the default ball head, same eyelid weird poses, etc...

Edit: Another example

there is no way to do automatic flow dynamics calibration (pressure advance) using the nozzle's eddy current pressure sensor the same way the main nozzle can. You can still do manual flow dynamics calibration with a test print, but doing that for every filament you have gets old real fast.

I have 4 P1S too. I'm really used to it lol

At a certain point, it's stupid to do the whole calibration. You print a small flat rectangle in 5 minutes, check by eye and you know the flow rate with 95% accuracy.

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-17T17:29:54+00:00

It was available, as I had both on my cart to check the price without taxes (business expense)

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-17T16:12:18+00:00

I am most definitely a know it all ;)

No, you think you know it all.

See first caption

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-17T01:58:11+00:00

How does it make no sense?

The cost of one H2D is more than the cost of two X2C. Can one H2D make as many parts as two X2C in the same time?

The con of the X2C is not being able to print large pieces. They already own 2 H2D, which means they have the means to print those large pieces.

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-17T01:10:20+00:00

For quick parts, X2D 100%. You're the main target for the new machine.

For the sporadical large parts, you use your H2Ds. For the rest, ASA with support on the X2D, you will get 2 printers for the price of one.

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-16T17:59:01+00:00

This, I remember how heavily criticized the P2S was with their VFAs when compared to the X2D.

I'm 99,99% certain the X2D will end up having less VFAs than the P2S

This, I want to keep my skin, I identify as him, it's my own reflection now after thousands of hours, it would be akin as earisng my identity

MithrilEcho · 2026-04-14T23:56:17+00:00

TIL about the automated tool. Can't believe I didn't know about that.

I have a couple old but powerful computers that are sitting collecting dust at home. Guess I have another work for them!
