Frequently Asked Questions For QIDI Q2

How much space does the printer require?
The QIDI Q2 has an external size of 402 × 438 × 494 mm. And the shipping dimensions is 480 × 520 × 585 mm.

We recommend leaving additional clearance at the back, sides, and top of the printer. This extra space makes it easier to change filament and ensures proper ventilation and cooling during operation.
Does the Q2 support multi-color printing?
Yes. When paired with the QIDI Box multi-color unit, the Q2 supports multi-material and multi-color printing.
Can I use the Plus4 nozzle on the Q2? Conversely, can Q2 nozzle be used on Plus4?
Although the nozzle of the Q2 is similar to the Plus4 nozzle in structure, it is not exactly the same.

They are slightly different in length.

Therefore, to ensure optimal print quality, it is strongly recommended not to use Q2 nozzle on the Plus4 printer and not use the Plus4 nozzle for Q2 printers.
How can I connect the printer?
The QIDI Q2 offers flexible connection options:

QIDI Cloud: Connect to the QIDI cloud server for remote monitoring and control.
Wi-Fi: Supports both 2.4G and 5G Wi-Fi networks.
Ethernet (LAN): Connect via a wired network port for stable remote control within your local network.
Offline Printing: Use a USB drive to load your files and print completely offline.
Can the Q2 print flexible filaments like TPU?
Yes. The Q2 can print TPU/TPE with a recommended hardness of 95A. For materials softer than 85A, print quality may be affected.
Due to the flexible nature of TPU filaments, there are some operational issues that can arise during feeding and printing. To facilitate TPU printing, we have created a dedicated Wiki guide. Simply follow the instructions in the Wiki to successfully print with TPU filaments:TPU printing guide
Which slicers are compatible with the Q2?
We recommend using QIDI Studio for the best compatibility and optimized profiles. However, since the QIDI Q2 runs on Klipper firmware, it is also fully compatible with popular third-party slicers such as OrcaSlicer and PrusaSlicer.

The printer supports multiple file formats, including STL, OBJ, 3MF, and STEP/STP.
What materials can it print with?
The QIDI Q2 supports a wide range of materials, including PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, TPU, PA, PC and PPS-CF and other carbon fiber composite materials. Its 370°C high-temp nozzle and 65°C heated chamber ensure reliable printing with both standard and engineering-grade materials, giving you maximum creative freedom.
What advantages does the QIDI Q2 have compared to other 3D printers in the same price range?
The QIDI Q2 features high-speed CoreXY precision,larger print size, a 370°C high-temp nozzle, a 65°C active heated chamber, smart auto-leveling, multi-material printing, and AI-camera monitoring—all with an advanced air filtration system for safer, more reliable, and effortless 3D printing.
What is the maximum print speed?
The QIDI Q2’s tool head can move at up to 600 mm/s with a maximum acceleration of 20,000 mm/s². In practice, print speeds depend on the material and nozzle flow rate—high-speed PLA and ABS typically print around 300 mm/s. QIDI will also release a high-flow nozzle in the future to support even faster printing, so stay tuned!
