Portable plug-and-play 3D printer lets you print without much complications
3D printing is something that is interesting and useful for a lot of industries although it’s still basically in the early stages. One thing that’s probably stopping people from embracing this technology is that it seems pretty complicated and not user-friendly. Most printers require a certain kind of technical knowledge so those who don’t have this are already ruled out. What if there was a printer that would do away with all that and let “ordinary” users enjoy the joys of 3D printing?
Designer: KOKONI
The KOKONI EC2 is one such printer which will let 3D printing enthusiasts use a plug-and-play kind of entry-level smart 3D printer. Despite its advanced features, it is still pretty accessible enough for children and newbies, not to mention pretty affordable. You don’t even need advanced software skills to be able to print the things you want to print. It has AI-generated design capabilities and there are also over 2000 designs to choose from (and they update it weekly so you’ll get more).
The portable 3D printer actually looks like a toy oven with its compact design and color options (apple green, orange, and white). It has a 720p camera so you will be able to see the printing process and even create time-lapse videos from there. You also get an upgraded printing speed so you’ll be able to print something in under 20 minutes if you’re using the simpler designs. You can connect the printer to the KOKONI 3D app so you don’t need a computer to be able to use it.
I never thought I would consider getting a 3D printer given the complicated nature of most of the machines available in the market. But this one that weighs just 3.2 kg and is 189 x 302 x 231 mm small is something you can consider if you’re looking to complete DIY projects for your home or work. Well, that is, if you have $349 to spare.

This multi-filament 3D printer upgrade lets you create colorful designs effortlessly
Never before has it been easier to create things at home thanks to 3D printers, but we’ve barely scratched the surface of what’s possible. There are still some limitations, especially for desktop 3D printers, dictated by economies of space or price. Something that may sound as basic as 3D printing objects with multiple colors turns out to be quite a chore because most of these printers are designed to handle a single filament at a time. Most of the time, you’re forced to print different colors as separate pieces and then just assemble them after the fact, a process that takes more time than necessary and is prone to error. You could buy a larger, more expensive multi-filament 3D printer, or you can upgrade your trusty machine with this revolutionary module set that makes printing different colors or materials at the same time easy as pie.

Commercial 3D printers, especially the most popular FDM or Fused Deposit Modeling kind, are designed to be quick, efficient, and easy to use. Given the parts and processes involved, that means limiting the printer head to handle a single filament of material at a time. With this technique, you can only print a single color or use a single type of material for a single pass, switching filaments when you need to print out a different color or material. After that, you have to glue the pieces together, which relies on your own precision and steady hands to achieve the desired design. This has been the status quo for many years now, not unless you buy an actual multi-filament 3D printer, which is bulkier and more expensive, especially if you already have a working 3D printer or two.
ChromaPad – Excels in color, material, speed, and control, unlocking limitless potential.
Fastest Multi-color Printing Experience – ChromaPad pushes the usual boundaries of 3D printing speed for both single and multi-filament projects. Accelerate your print up to 300+ mm/s and get your project in hand three times faster.
ChromaScreen Advanced Klipper Software – Comes with features like the ability to control multiple extruders, a helpful setup wizard, and the ability to manage multiple printers at once.
Manage Multiple Printers Effortlessly – ChromaPad allows you to control up to 8 printers in a single simple panel.
The Co Print ChromaSet is a collection of modules that basically upgrades almost any old 3D printer to be able to handle multiple filaments in one go. It allows you to use the same trusted machine you’ve been working with for years and, with just a few easy-to-install parts, turn it into a multi-color, multi-material 3D printer that is just as easy to use as any other regular 3D printer. Instead of being forced to print multiple parts because they’re made of different materials or colors, you can save time and a lot of work with a single printing pass that can use a variety of colors as well as filaments, including PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, ASA, Wood, and more.
ChromaHead – Designed to match your needs on multi-filament 3D printing. When combined with ChromaPad or KCM, it minimizes all the issues that can occur such as jamming and clogging.
Filament Cutter for High Quality Prints – Powered by a robust servo motor with up to 20 kg of force and supported by a durable Japanese blade, ChromaHead’s precise filament cutting mechanism achieves a success rate of 99.9% in clean cuts.
Universal Rail Plug System – The design allows you to match with different brands and different models, and solves the compatibility issues.
Supports all the Materials you Need – Different colors, different materials. Your creative journey knows no bounds.
The different pieces of the ChromaSet work together to accomplish this seemingly magical feat. The ChromaHead with the embedded ChromaHotend, for example, attaches easily to almost any 3D printer thanks to its unique rail plug system, making it compatible with different brands, models, and mechanical setups. It is designed to support at most four filaments at the same time, with a special design that minimizes jamming and clogging, as well as employing a Japanese blade for precise and clean filament cuts. The CX-1 Extruder, engineered with Titanium gears, a dual-drive system, and high-torque features, is responsible for pushing those four filaments and can be just as easily installed on any 3D printer.
KCM (Klipper Chroma Module) – For users who already have a Klipper-based 3D printer. KCM gives you all the great features of ChromaPad right out of the box, so you don’t need to buy ChromaPad separately.
ECM (Extended Chroma Module) – Designed to increase your extruder limits. ECM allows you to add up additional 4 extruders into a single output via USB.
If you need more than four filaments, the ECM or Extended Chroma Module adds four more extruders into a single output for a total of eight. You can have up to five of these extruders for a whopping 20 filaments, each carrying a different color or type of material for an even faster workflow. Making all these different parts work together in harmony is the job of the ChromaPad, the world’s first multi-filament 3D printing pad. Running the ChromaScreen software based on Klipper Screen, the tablet gives users unprecedented control not just over multi-filament printing but as many as 8 printers at the same time as well. But if you already have a Klipper-based 3D printer, you can use the Klipper Chroma Module (KCM) instead, delivering the same features without the extra cost.
The Co Print ChromaSet was made in collaboration with major 3D printer brands, ensuring that it will work with almost all 3D printer models in the market. A $349 discounted bundle lets you get the ChromaSet with the Klipper module instead of the tablet, while the $499 set includes the ChromaPad without the KCM. Whichever bundle you choose, the ChromaSet is guaranteed to upgrade your 3D printing experience, allowing you to make magnificent colorful designs in a fraction of the time and with less effort.

Using the literal words of the folks at Co Print, “ChromaSet brings color, speed, and ease of control to your existing 3D printer setup.” It supercharges your current printer by adding mods and upgrades to it, optimizing its performance, improving its output, and allowing you to manage your new multi-filament printer with even more ease than before. The system all boils down to 6 different modules that attach right onto any existing 3D printer, working with different mechanical systems including linear, shaft + bearing, and sigma profile-style printers. Once set up, printing happens smoother than before. The printer automatically manages and switches between filaments, while the tab lets you monitor and control multiple printers working in tandem. There’s no need for calibration, changing filaments in between prints, or even waiting hours to complete jobs. ChromaSet’s entire system hyper-optimizes operations with 300mm/s speeds that help cut down print times in almost half.
ChromaPad – Excels in color, material, speed, and control, unlocking limitless potential.
Fastest Multi-color Printing Experience – ChromaPad pushes the usual boundaries of 3D printing speed for both single and multi-filament projects. Accelerate your print up to 300+ mm/s and get your project in hand three times faster.
ChromaScreen Advanced Klipper Software – Comes with features like the ability to control multiple extruders, a helpful setup wizard, and the ability to manage multiple printers at once.
Manage Multiple Printers Effortlessly – ChromaPad allows you to control up to 8 printers in a single simple panel.
The 6 different modules have very specific roles, starting with the ChromaPad which becomes the ultimate hub for all your printing needs. With a 7-inch touchscreen on the outside and a powerful AmlogicS905X3 processor on the inside, the ChromaPad is the buffer between you and the 3D printer, using a special ChromaScreen software (based on Klipper Screen) that gives you the ability to control multiple extruders, to manage multiple printers at once, and a helpful setup wizard that allows you to effectively things up by upgrading your old printer.
ChromaHead – Designed to match your needs on multi-filament 3D printing. When combined with ChromaPad or KCM, it minimizes all the issues that can occur such as jamming and clogging.

The ChromaSet can practically attach onto any existing 3D printer, augmenting its abilities. Its design is a result of a partnership between Co Print and companies like Creality, Phaetus, LDO Motors, and other popular 3D printer makers and suppliers, which means the ChromaSet works with all popular printers, attaching on in just minutes. The process starts with mounting the ChromaHead, which contains the hot-end and nozzle, along with a filament management system that helps efficiently switch between filaments mid-print. The ChromaHead is a unique-looking device, with an 8-holed funnel on top that accepts multiple filaments at the same time. Based on the print requirement, it effectively alternates between filaments, heating them to the right temperature before dispensing them through the nozzle onto the print-plate. But how does it know which filament to take next? Well, the CX-1 Extruder takes care of that. Sitting on top of the printer, this extruder manually feeds the right filament into the hot-end. Layer as many as 8 of them side by side and they work in tandem like ink cartridges in a regular printer, delivering the right filament at exactly the right time. This potentially allows you to print an entire multi-material product in one single job, printing TPU, PLA, ABS, and PETG at the same time.
KCM (Klipper Chroma Module) – For users who already have a Klipper-based 3D printer. KCM gives you all the great features of ChromaPad right out of the box, so you don’t need to buy ChromaPad separately.
ECM (Extended Chroma Module) – Designed to increase your extruder limits. ECM allows you to add up additional 4 extruders into a single output via USB.
The results look nothing like what you’d get from a starting or mid-range printer. The ChromaSet’s output feels undeniably premium, with the kind of materials and colors that one could expect from a printer costing four figures in the least. Moreover, a single ChromaPad can control multiple printers at once, allowing you to revamp that old printer from 5 years ago lying in your garage, bringing it up to speed with your new printer. If your printer is Klipper-based, you don’t even need the pad to control it – the Klipper Chroma Module (or KCM) lets you turn it into a multi-filament machine without the pad, and if you REALLY want to push your printer’s multi-filament chops to the limits, the ECM or Extended Chroma Module allows you to add up additional 4 extruders into a single output via USB, letting you simultaneously print with 20 filaments of different colors and materials.
The results pretty much speak for themselves. Although the video doesn’t document a time comparison, ChromaSet boasts nearly 3x printing speeds without any drop in quality. You don’t need to calibrate the printer or manage filaments manually because the system does it all for you. The ChromaScreen software is entirely open-source, and even if you’re away from your printer (or printers), support for remote devices lets you monitor and even control active print jobs on your phone, tablet, laptop, or any other internet-connected device. The entire ChromaSet starts at a discounted $349 if you opt for the KCM bundle, or $499 for the bundle with the ChromaPad tablet device – both bundles include 4 Extruders, with the ability to add more to your initial pledge. If you ask me, that’s not a bad investment, considering how the minor upgrade turns your basic printer into a high-end industry-grade one!
