It prints quite well, and was up and running in under 10 minutes. There are no bed leveling screws, but so long as you make sure the gantry is leveled AND squared, this isn't a problem.
ABL is done via pressing the nozzle itself against the bed to detect strain across a 25 point grid.
Heating is plenty fast, and the unit comes with a PEI-on-glass bed. For an extra 35 dollars, you can get the flex plate (which i suggest).
Cons: does not handle z-hop commands well. This results in pills all over the side of the print, and it WILL cause an aligned z seam to swell up and ruin your print.
E-steps are usually off on the extruder alone. Typically, it is 6mm short.
The filament runout sensor is on a flimsy mount, and not only flexes during retracions, but will squeak with fast retraction settings. Some oil solves the squeak for a moment, but it would benefit the sensor if it had a teflon coating, this would help.
You have to heat the unit to 220c minimum in order to auto feed or remove filament, and that cannot be changed. Why?
No manual leveling options. If the nozzle is dragging on one side, you may likely need to force the gantry to max Z height in order to level out the Z screws.
Pros: decent cooling, great temperature control, and easy setup in pronterface.
Stepper drivers are digitally programmed, and you can check settings with m500
Offers PLA and ABS preheating options.
Rapidly heats up to print temp and doesnt vary much at all, even with full cooling.
Rock solid.
Capable of printing at 120mm/s with accuracy of +/- 0.45mm in x and y using stock parts.
Super quiet. Unless you're speed printing, it's silent.
Notes:
Advised jerk is 8-15mm/s. 10 is what mine is set for in all respects.
Max moving acceleration should be 5000 or less
Max acceleration on any other setting shouldnt exceed 3700, as it has no appreciable benefit above this, but the suggested acceleration is 800 to 2000 for most prints.
225c at 15mm/s is perfect for the first bridging layer.
Tends to do a small deceleration across exact center in the bed. I dont know why, but it does this for anything printed within 25mm of the center. It isnt a problem, but can produce noticeable effects on the print along outer walls when going at 80mm/s or higher.
Do not insert the SD card into the touch screen. This port is for bios upgrades only.
Overall, totally worth the price, and a blast to operate. You wont be disappointed.

Plagued by errors and issues
UPDATE:I bought this printer in October 2022. Since that time, I have been plagued by hotend errors. I've replaced the hotbed, hotend, printhead gantry and printhead cable. Intermittently between repairs it has worked - not perfect, but at least it wasn't a brick.Currently, I am not able to get past the hotend error. Everything except the motherboard is new by replacement from Anycubic. Why did I buy a printer so that I could basically rebuild it?Don't get me wrong, when this was working, it was fantastic - I have zero issues with quality of print, speed, etc. The only issue I am having right now is that it doesn't work. At all.In my personal opinion, the printhead is poorly designed - with no stability for the printhead cable, the constant movement will eventually wear out the wires and the flimsy fabric tape will not protect that. So - that's one replacement heavy printers will need to plan on doing in the future. Changing the printhead itself is not that hard - except for the melted wax on the connectors that makes it near impossible (for people who do not regularly mess with electronics) to unplug the connectors. The same goes for any of the connections on the motherboard. To replace the printhead cable, you have to unplug it from the motherboard and plug the new one in - however, there is melted wax that keeps anyone from doing that easily. I spent a considerable amount of time working the wax off carefully - so as not to damage the board or nearby wires. Inside the printhead gantry, the wires are smooshed so tightly together - to fit once it's back on. When you replace the printhead, you have to re-smoosh the wiring to fit and if you're not careful, the way in which they are smooshed will eventually wear out those wires and/or connections.I've never been so involved in a 3D printer before. Most are plug and play for me and work well. This one, while I love the size and quality, has not been worth the headache - especially considering the price.One thing I can say is that customer service has been great and as fast as China to US via email can possibly be. On initial contact, they replaced the cable and printhead gantry and provided instructions on how to do it. The only thing tho, is that they ask for you to print an Owl g-code as a default and if you're printer is not working to be able to do so, you're going to have to reply to that request even if you mentioned that in the first service ticket.For service, I give Anycubic 5 stars. But for product, I can't give it more than one right now. The level of issues I have with this printer are more in line with a printer that is either a few years old or is used to print non-stop - neither of which applies to the one I own. I have since contacted anycubic again and hopefully we can resolve this since my return window is closed. :)I am by no means a 3D Printer guru, but I know how to operate 3D printers. This printer is HUGE. It's kind of intimidating to set up. However, right out of the box, it seemed to print fine. But not for long. I have been plagued with hot bed errors, hot end errors and bed leveling issues. I've literally spent hours and rolls of filament trying to get the settings right. I even replaced the hot end - or tried to. The connections had melted wax or red filament over them, and it took me a long time to carefully scrape off whatever it was enough to remove the connections so that I could replace the hot end. And still getting hot end abnormal errors. So, right now, this is a brick sitting on my table. I've contacted anycubic for support, sent pics of earlier issues, including a warped hot bed, they told me to print their Owl gcode and send more pics. The hot bed is warped, I figured that's a defect. There is NO voice tech support. NO voice customer service. Just email, which takes a while - something I don't understand as they have a hub here in the US. At this point, I'd just like to exchange it for one that works out of the box like it seems to for all the YouTube 'unboxers.' My solid advice is to wait a while before purchasing this one - it's too new, not enough support tech or otherwise (unless you are looking for curaprofiles) and there are easier to use printers out there, like the Anycubic Vyper - which was my second choice.I was able to get a few prints out - some prototypes before all the issues started - and I will say that those did turn out decent enough.If you have this printer and it works for you, awesome. However, mine is not and has not consistently worked for me.

Eccellente stampante per iniziare

Zingaro Felice
Reviewed in Italy on December 8, 2022
Una volta settata la macchina come si deve, è davvero un gioiellino. La stampa è di eccellente qualità (anche se ovviamente non si avvicina a quella di una stampante a resina) e si mangia filamenti di ogni tipo: ho provato con quelli contenenti legno e metallo, non ho ancora provato quelli con ceramica, ma davvero si mangia di tutto.
Il livellamento automatico è comodissimo.
La tecnologia FDM richiede un po' di pratica per iniziare a capirci qualcosa, ma non è poi così difficile: studiando e frequentando i gruppi (ce n'è uno su Facebook ufficiale di Anycubic) si può imparare in tempi relativamente brevi.
Che dire di più? Per quanto mi riguarda, per l'hobbista Anycubic si conferma un ottimo marchio, che mi sento di consigliare a tutti. Questa piccola Kobra, che peraltro è a estrusione diretta (e quindi è molto precisa, da un lato, e non ha difficoltà a stampare praticamente con tutto, dall'altro), darà tante, tante soddisfazioni.
