    How hot can I print with my creator x - 2014 model

    I have no clue.

    I'm currently printing some MYMat nylon at 260 - and that's working fine.
    In fact at 79% of A decent sized carabiner - there's no warp and the print looks spot on. A first for me with nylon.
    And I do mean absolutely no warp.
    bed temp 60, extruder 260 open printer, printing to gluestick. Nylon - NO WARP !
    Hot diggity.

    But how hot can i print ?
    I can't find it listed anywhere on the flashforge site.

    I do know my klic-n-print will go to 280, but that has slightly different extruders.

    There's a temperature limit built into the sailfish firmware that is likely run on your FFCP. I think it fixes the maximum extruder temperature at 280 C. I remember asking one of the creators of the firmware how to increase the limit; he said he doesn't advise it because some of potential fire hazards related to the wires for the extruder heating elements.

    okay - so 280 for both. Cool :-)

    More than enough.
    The MyMat nylon extrudes great at 260 and the polymaker polycarbonate I'e got should extrude at a similiar temp.
