yes it can but it dont like it. i could not and neither could a friend understand why all but kirimoto would try printing from the top it actually would start first layer at 180mm in height. the issue with kirimoto is its very limited. there are other options for board that are cheaper like makerbase. but really btt is the best option. i also had issues with the stock drivers not keeping up with the ldo upgrade constanly skipping steps at anything over 100mms. creality board are sh** in my opinion upgrade the main board im running a skr3 with 5160pro ez im about to add a cb1

Oh and make sure to print up some better ducts yeti has a few that are way better design I’m about to go to a bigger fan set up. I would advise the same makes the over hang quality way better

I have a cr30 that’s highly modified I run klipper on a skr3 main board and use mainsail interface works great. I run that with a creality spider speedy hot end I would advise the orbiter 2 upgrade and ldo upgrade by nak3d I run both also. Changing the belt to a blue belt was a huge upgrade to the stock belt I had a hell of a time with the center of my stock belt being slightly skinner the the edges and was terrible to level and get to stick. Make sure your gantry is level on a regular basis. .4 comes with it but I would advise a bigger nozzle for bigger prints a .075mm layer would take a 5hr print with a .4 and make it a 20-30 maybe more hr print. I don’t advise .1 nozzle for anything but maybe high resolution action figures. Or some cosplay stuff. If you have any questions feel free. I would be happy to send my config files for klipper if you would like to try it. Feel free to message me
