Neptune-4MAX

11/9/23 UPDATE Please FIRST update the Orca to 1.8 beta2 comes with settings ready, just set the Y max acceleration to 3000 and make the calibrations. and update the firmware machine/screen (.34 or the latest .43 works fine solve all the issues) if you can't find it ask to costumer support or in elegoo official discord channel Pressure advance try 0.03 for PLA+ and 0.6mm nozzle it almost always works 0.02 though.

How to set up the Elegoo Neptune 4MAX with Orca Slicer I get one issue with hard homing I change my X&Y stepper sensitivity on printer.cfg look for driver_SGTHRS: My value on X is 65 and Y 45 bigger number more sensitive if you go up too much the printer moves to the other direction then try +5 increments then +1 but is relative with the tightening on the rollers, belt, break in period. may will break in and they will need to do the adjustment again. Here you will find the files needed, printer.cfg, start end gcode. Open Orca slicer (last edition 1.7) add printer the elegoo Neptune 4, then change the printable area to x427 y426 printable height 497 (you must remove the Z bracket and replace it with the ziptie provided change the Machine G-code start and end gcode, save and close the window or use my printer config file (.json) open orca then file, import. Now hit the wifi logo on the right side to connect the printer, go to the printer, look the touchscreen in the wifi settings to get the IP address and use it in Orca, done, printer is connected, up and running, now you can see fluid inside the OrcaSlicer when you hit device.

I also drill up the original nozzle to .6mm with a cheap small drill bit kit, first I use .5mm then the .6mm (I already did the same with my bambulab X1C stell nozzle) the elegoo original is brass, it is easy to drill. then I get 27mm3 flow rate (the priter comes with 2 brass nozzle, I still have the .4) I dont remove the nozzle from the printer, I drill it installed

If you use this files please do all the calibration, manual leveling + bedmesh, inputshaper, plus the orca calibration test. it is almost all dialed in but for example the printer.cfg comes with my bed leveling mesh
