That's good to know. I was thinking of upgrading to the 4 (or maybe next) if it was that much faster. Have you had experience to compare the 3 and 4?
I've only had the 4, but it serves me pretty well. I do have some issues with calibration sometimes but it's pretty fixable with some tinkering. I think theferalengineer on youtube also has some videos about the neptune 3 and 4, he's where I figured out how to put klipper on my 4 pro. Edit: I'm dumb I have the 3 pro sorry!
The Neptune 4 series models come with (Elegoo customized) Klipper pre-installed. Are you talking about installing the Open Neptune firmware? (de-elegoo'd Klipper firmware)
I got mine a while ago, so they must have changed the firmware they have by default since then. Mine had some flavor of marlin with a super simple touchpad. Or maybe I have the 3 pro... Honestly, it's been like 3 years and I still have to unpack the thing since moving, so I could be wrong on the exact model >.<
Edit: I looked up the old receipt its the 3 pro sorry ;-;
All good! But yeah, a few big differences between the 3 series and 4 series 😅
