The <b>Pro<\/b> and <b>Standard K2<\/b> are still incredibly quick at <b>20,000 mm\/s\u00b2<\/b>, but the Plus just has that extra bit of specialized power for ultra-fast production.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"15\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_What_Can_You_Print\"><\/span>3.

This is one of the coolest parts of the series. All three models support the <b>Creality CFS<\/b> (Color Filament System), which lets you daisy-chain units to print with up to <b>16 colors<\/b> at once.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"33\"><b>Q: Will it be too loud for my apartment?<\/b><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"33\">A: Surprisingly, no. They\u2019ve done a good job dampening the sound. All three operate at <b>\u226445 dB<\/b>, so they shouldn&#8217;t disturb your work or sleep.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"34\"><b>Q: What about software?<\/b><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"34\">A: You\u2019ll be using <b>Creality Print<\/b> to slice your files and <b>Creality Cloud<\/b> if you want to manage prints remotely or grab models from their library.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"35\"><b>Q: Does the standard K2 do Carbon Fiber?<\/b><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"35\">A: Sort of. It handles <b>PLA-CF<\/b> (PLA Carbon Fiber) just fine. But if you need to print high-temperature composites like <b>PA-CF<\/b>, you really need to step up to the <b>K2 Plus<\/b> or <b>K2 Pro<\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve been watching the 3D printing space recently, you\u2019ve probably felt the shift.
