I've talked to quite a few people who use that printer with S3D. If you're looking for help with your first profile, you might want to email their support team, cause they may already have a pre-configured profile for it.

Re: Creatbot dx plus

the machine is printing very very slowly using creatbot software
but when I try simplify3d the top layers arent forming properly so im trying with more top and bottom layers
the other issue is when i use s3d the head would stop randomly during the prints
i would assume the bowden head would allow me to print much faster than the replicator2

here is my current process

Pro
they are cheap

Con
support is not good

they use a bowden head so you might have to change back to 3mm instead of 1.75mm filament

i have had heaps of problems with the 4 machines I use
