Why I love my X1C

So as the printer was going through it setup routine and printing the flow calibration lines an error popped up on the display. The error said the camera lens for the Lidar seems dirty and might need to be cleaned, I hit the more button and it shows a small picture of where the lens was and a basic turn the machine off and clean. mean while the printing did not stop or get ruined by this and printed flawlessly. When the print was done I cleaned the lens and turned the machine back on and away it went printing again, if this was my old ender 3 s1 pro I would have been fighting the printer for weeks to get it to work right again. I am at about 95hrs printed in since I got it about 2 weeks or so ago and it impresses me more everyday.

Over 6 years I used my self made 3d printer, upgrading, changing, reparing. Now I just replace filament and go - magic. Automatic system for leveling, moving, melting, camera, lasers - the future is now.
