Creality k2 Plus Orca Profil 300h and Mulicolor

Hello Community,
Here is my profile for the Orca Slicer.
I have used my Creality K2 Plus for over 300 hours and modified the basic profile to this version. This profile is optimized for multicolor printing or printing with PETG/PLA. The basic Orca profile caused issues with the purge tower, but this has been fixed in my version.

I hope this profile saves you the testing and troubleshooting I went through to make it work.

Update: 07.01.2025 - Profile v2

Hello, I have updated the profile to version 2.

What’s new:

• Filament load and unload times are now included in the print time calculator.
  This makes the estimated print time in Orca closer to the actual time.
• Improved brim settings for multicolor prints.
  With taller prints using two colors, the tower previously had issues sticking to the print bed; this has been addressed.

Supported Materials:

• PETG and PLA
• PLA 0.1 mm layer height

Recommended Filaments:

• Sunlu and Creality PLA: Ideal for precision figure printing.
• Improved settings for achieving a better first layer with PLA.

You now have this printer profile available for every project, complete with all settings.

 

Connecting Orca with the K2

Host Type:
The K2 can connect via OctoPrint/Klipper or, with firmware version 1.1.1.7, via CrealityPrint.
I haven't noticed any significant differences between the two methods.

Enter the printer’s IP address (this can be found on the printer display).
