Filament compatibility for the QIDI X-Plus II: the materials it can handle, judged from its hotend, bed, chamber and enclosure. | Filament | Suitability | Notes | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | PLA | Great | The easiest filament to print. Works on almost any printer; a heated bed helps adhesion but is not required. | | PETG | Great | Comfortably in range (PETG likes a ~230-250C hotend and a ~70-85C bed). | | TPU & flexibles | Great | The direct-drive extruder feeds flexible filament well. Print slowly for clean results. | | ABS & ASA | With care | The bed is hot enough, but ABS and ASA warp without an enclosure, which is strongly recommended for clean prints. | | Nylon (PA) | With care | Possible with care - an enclosure and very dry filament are essential. | | Polycarbonate (PC) | With care | On the edge - PC really wants an enclosed, hot chamber to avoid warping. | | Carbon-fiber & glass-filled | With care | Possible if you fit a hardened or wear-resistant nozzle - the abrasive fibers quickly wear a stock brass nozzle. | ## Printers like the QIDI X-Plus II that work with SimplyPrint - [QIDI i-mate](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/qidi-i-mate): Compatible, 260 x 200 x 200 mm, Also by QIDI · Similar build volume - [Creality Ender-3 V3 SE](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/creality-ender-3-v3-se): Compatible, 220 x 220 x 250 mm, Similar build volume - [Creality K1C](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/creality-k1c): Compatible, 220 x 220 x 250 mm, Similar build volume - [Creality Ender-3 V3 KE](https://simplyprint.io/compatibility/creality-ender-3-v3-ke): Compatible, 220 x 220 x 240 mm, Similar build volume ## About QIDI QIDI Tech is a Chinese 3D printer maker formed in 2014. It sells enclosed, Klipper-based CoreXY printers such as the compact Q2 and the larger Plus4 and Max4, and develops the open-source QIDI Studio slicer and the QIDI Link app. - Founded: 2014 - Website: https://qidi3d.com Openness: Mostly open (4.2 of 5) QIDI is mostly open: its printers are standard Klipper machines you can run fully on the local network, with published source and plenty of spare parts. The phone app and the store-only privacy policy are the weak spots. - Firmware and custom firmware (4 of 5): QIDI printers run QIDI's editions of Klipper and Moonraker with Fluidd. QIDI publishes them and per-model firmware packages on GitHub under GPL (for example the Q2 in January 2026 and the Max4 in August 2026) and answers issues there. - Local control and integrations (5 of 5): QIDI printers run Klipper and Moonraker with Fluidd on the printer, and QIDI Studio connects to them on the local network by IP without an account. QIDI publishes its Moonraker edition on GitHub, and other software can use Moonraker's documented API. Only the QIDI Link phone app needs an account and QIDI's cloud. - Third-party filament, slicers and parts (4 of 5): Third-party filament works; QIDI Studio is open source, and as Klipper and Moonraker printers they work with other Moonraker-compatible software. Hotends and nozzles are QIDI parts made per model. - Repairs and spare parts (4 of 5): QIDI's store lists many individual parts, including motherboards, eMMC modules, fans, extruders, hotends and Wi-Fi cards, and its wiki has replacement guides such as the Plus4 hotend. - Data and privacy (3 of 5): Local use needs no account. QIDI Link requires one and says which server it uses (Aliyun in China, AWS elsewhere). The published privacy policy covers the online store, not the printers or the app. - Community and documentation (4 of 5): Firmware is released and issues are taken on GitHub, and QIDI keeps a wiki per model with manuals, maintenance and troubleshooting guides. ### From SimplyPrint Our own experience working with QIDI. It isn't part of the rating. - QIDI is one of the few printer makers we work with directly: they occasionally send us new printers, and put us in touch with their developers when we need them. ### Pros - Runs fully on the local network through Fluidd, with no account needed. - Klipper and Moonraker sources and firmware updates are published on GitHub. - Many individual spare parts, down to motherboards and eMMC modules. - Open-source slicer and open filament choice. ### Cons - The QIDI Link app needs an account and QIDI's cloud. - The privacy policy covers only the online store, not the printers or app. - Hotends and nozzles are QIDI-specific parts. ### Track record - August 2026: QIDI published the firmware repository for the Max4 on GitHub under GPL-3.0. - January 2026: QIDI published the Q2's Klipper-based firmware on GitHub under GPL-3.0, with update packages and an issue tracker.
