Just bought a 5 S1, this video was super helpful for starting it up and running its first print! Much appreciated!

This video is a god-send, starting with the voltage selection, which was wrong in my case! Many thanks!

thank you so much for this video I was able to get my printer leveled and to produce a good print. I had been struggling for days to successfully level my printer.

I had the same problem with auto-leveling. Seems to work better just without using the auto-leveling feature.

I've been trying to get my Z offset
and it seems when it goes to the top so I can make adjustments there is always a gap of about 5mm
Nothing is adhering to the plate. Any idea why it may not be letting me adjust the Z to the paper thin size.

it worked fine first but after i leveled everything for the 2nd time, now it starts printing too far above the build plate and i've about had it with this printer.

Hey bud your leveling advice is literally damaging people machines. Multiple comments in here to back it up. I watched your full video on your other channel to guide me through the set up much appreciated. But if you level this way after a few times you will have your head go right through the bed. You're a problem until you correct this. You need to tighten all the knobs when the machine is off, don't even have to be even, just not loose, so you have play to manually level later. Then when you turn on manual leveling the first step is to adjust the whole bed with the arrows on the screen to a reasonable gap at any corner. THEN proceed to go corner by corner with the paper gap and knobs. Including checking the center. I had to learn this myself after thinking through it since I destroyed my magnetic bed cover and had to purchase a new one didn't want to cause any more damage and some of my knobs were no longer attached to their posts.

Auto Bed Leveling (ABL) has a lot of problems on FW v1.0.6. The extra steps taken seem to help a lot.
Hoping v1.0.7 it's fixed

Is it shaking as much as it looks like?

Now in August 2023, the homing doesn't go to the bottom. You can still adjust the z-offset live whilst printing too. It's a nice quiet printer compared to my ender 3v2.

My version does not have Z axis switch... is this a problem? :(

[rogereast]

Do not level this way. bring bed up and set offset first then paper the corners and last auto level. this video is wrong

Your unboxing and assembly/review glossed over the odd layering issue you encountered. Others are in the same position but you're in a position to get something done about it so how 'bout you contact Creality to ascertain why the layering issue is occurring.

And you glossed over the layer issue here in this video as well.

I see they're pulling yee ol EA games "sims" approach: release the same device over and over and make 2-3 size differences with upgrades. Oh and charge a ridiculous price to
