What to feed the QIDI Q1 Pro
Small footprint, full menu
The Q1 Pro packs the same eight-family reach as its bigger sibling (350 °C nozzle, 120 °C bed) into a 245 mm cube. Nylon, polycarbonate, ABS, and ASA are all legitimately on the table.
A sensible ladder
PLA to learn the machine. PETG for tough everyday parts. ASA or ABS when heat or weather demands it. Nylon and PC last, once the drying rituals feel routine rather than exotic.
Temps, at a glance
Every family's typical range lives on its material page here, and the Q1 Pro's ceilings clear all of them, including polycarbonate's 100-120 °C bed.
