FLSUN V400 Printer
Contents
Using the printer:
The v400 is a delta printer, its kinda fun to use. Its pretty hardy and fairly durable compared to an average 3d printer, and also fairly fast. Baring this in mind, if we stick to a known recipe of plastic and printer settings, it should Just Work:tm: most of the time.
It likes to run ESUN brand PLA+ (PLA-ST which is PLA with added herbs and spices that make it stronger) which is often < €15/kg. I've had great success with ESUN PLA+ and never had a clog with it.
Cura

Install Cura
Download the latest version of Ultimaker Cura
Install Plugins
Open the Marketplace

Then select "Non UltiMaker Printer". Expand the section labeled "Add a non-networked printer" even though this very much is a networked printer. Then scroll until you find Flsun, and select Flsun v400.
