Elegoo Neptune 4 - Klipper 3D Printer - Unbox & Setup

Amazon Links

Pre-installed Klipper Firmware
With a quiet Klipper motherboard and ARM 64-bit 1.5G main frequency quad-core high-performance processor, ELEGOO Neptune 4 can achieve printing speed of up to 500mm/s (recommended 250mm/s), allowing you to produce your models faster than ever before, support input shaping and pressure advance function to improve the print quality of models. 8G RAM provides enough storage space for fast printing.

Dual-Gear Direct Extruder
The new self-developed dual-gear direct drive extruder with a 5.2:1 reduction ratio ensures powerful extrusion and smoother filament feeding. Paired with copper-titanium all-metal throat pipe and unique air duct design to effectively improve the heat dissipation of the throat pipe and reduce nozzle blockage risk.

300°C High-temp Nozzle
With a 300°C high-temp nozzle and an extended hot end, which means the filament can be fully melted and uniformly flow out even at high printing speed, this printer can handle a wide range of materials, including PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU, and high-temperature filaments such as nylon.

Auto Bed Leveling
auto bed leveling ensures quick and accurate leveling of the build platform. For perfect first-layer printing, you can also use the hand-twist knobs under the build platform for auxiliary leveling. In addition, the PEI magnetic platform allows for the easy printed models removal with just a slight bend.

Efficient & Instant Cooling
The 2 thickened double-sided 4015 model cooling fans with strong wind for more comprehensive and efficient heat dissipation, along with the 4x4020 ball bearing blower fans behind the print head to quickly cool down the newly deposited model, ensuring good print quality even at very fast printing speed.

Removable Capacitive Touchscreen
The 4.3-inch removable capacitive touchscreen can be operated by hand-held or fixed on the base, and features a model preview function and pause printing function for added convenience. The gantry's LED light strip with 30 beads and a hood, combined with an LED light on the nozzle for observing the model printing in a dark environment.

So far this has been the most useful video on N4 on YouTube.

Now this is a review! For days I was just looking at reviews and found that people are just making short meaningless videos about there favourite or least favourite 3D printers. And now finally I found the guy who makes an informative, long and very detailed review about this 3D printer. Thank you my G!

Man, this video has been such a life-saver. One thing of note: The "freebie SD card" is included because you need it to update the display. You can update the printer through USB but the connected display actually needs to be taken apart and has a little SD reader inside.

I've had this printer for almost a month and I think it's really good for all beginners. Considering its price, it's a really good printer and easy to use. Thank you!

I got this from someone who said, "It never worked." I plugged it in, and the switch lit up, but the power didn't work. Until I got to 21:28 of your video! 115V had to be switched on instead of 230V! Thanks a ton!

I just got my new Neptune 4 yesterday. So impressed with it. Super fast and good quality.

I got my son this printer for Christmas, and I was gonna spend this weekend getting it calibrated and set up, but you made it too easy. Thanks brother

I've had my Neptune 3 pro for about 2 months and I just got the Neptune 4, holy hell this thing lays down plastic extremely fast. Haven't had it an hour yet and I'm completely satisfied with my purchase. Got it brand new for $230 cash on offer up. What a score!!

[hugodllrd]

I was searching for a new printer because mine is very old and I think I found the one thanks to you !!
So Thank you very much and continue your amazing work !

This is probably the best video I have seen to date. very thorough on everything, great explanations and presentation. Immediate like and subscribe!

[GreatestGames]

Literally just unboxed mine today and I am working on my first print. Phenomenal

[austingivens]

I've been looking and researching for a while now and I just order this printer this morning and this video makes me very excited to play with it. Really good video for knowing what to expect when I get it so thank you!

@JustVlads

Oh my god, you've made this product so ACCESSIBLE to my brain! Thank you for this in-depth review!

[NastadonGaming]

Great video! I purchased my Neptune 4 last night as my first 3d printer and wanted to look up videos while waiting for it to arrive. This makes me think I bought a good one as everything was explained so nicely. I'm sure I'll be back in a few days to rewatch some parts when the laser comes in!

[akitosorogoma]

My first print ever (budda) is 17% done. I'm wicked excited.

[josephwisniewski]

Thank you for this video. I own a different brand of printer (a very similar I3 klipper) and you provided a very coherent explanation of belt tensioning and roller adjustment. Very useful.

Try the 18 minute benchy file from the USB. I had a similar improbable fast benchy file on mine, and it turned out surprisingly high quality.

[fernandodeleon]

thank you for taking the time to make this video. It really helped me a lot setting my new Neptune 4. I'm new to 3D Printing.Greetings from Puerto Rico.

[MotivatedCT]

This was an awesome review of the new Neptune 4! The prints are impressive! Especially the Deadpool bust!

[kwongster]

thanks for this, just ordered it and its helpful to have this as a preview! Keep up the amazing content

[LibertyEver]

Klipper is awesome and Elegoo got a lot right with the Neptune 4. I'm looking forward to a Neptune 4 Pro, but in a 300 mm Plus size. I wish Elegoo included WiFi so it's easy to use with Klipper. Who uses a wired LAN connection these days? It also needs an all metal hot end.
