Elegoo’s Centauri Carbon 2 Combo budget 3D printer is now available — brings four-color printing to an accessible price point

A multicolor system that shares one nozzle will always create filament waste, but I’m pleased with the results so far. ElegooSlicer allows the user to tune the filament purge amounts and use purge objects, which will let you keep waste to a minimum.

With a retail price tag of $449, the Centauri Carbon 2 Combo dramatically undercuts similarly sized multicolor CoreXY printers, including Bambu Lab’s P2S , while promising excellent print quality. If the hardware lives up to its specs, Elegoo isn’t just offering a cheaper alternative. It’s positioning itself as a direct threat. With DJI reportedly backing the company , the multicolor 3D printer race just got a lot more interesting.
