Built for Speed & Stability
The Centauri Carbon features a CoreXY motion system powered by dual NEMA 4260 stepper motors, enabling speeds up to 500 mm/s and 20,000 mm/s² acceleration. A die-cast aluminum frame and glass-enclosed build chamber ensure rigidity, thermal stability, and reduced noise (under 50 dB). A built-in HEPA and carbon filter improves air safety during enclosed prints.

Precision, Versatility, and Material Range
With a 256 × 256 × 256 mm build volume, all-metal hotend (up to 320 °C), and heated bed (up to 110 °C), the printer supports PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, ASA, PC, nylon, and carbon-fiber composites. Its hardened steel nozzle and 5.2:1 dual-gear extruder provide reliable flow rates and durability for high-performance printing.

Easy to Use, Fully Automated
The printer requires almost no setup—just plug it in, attach the screen, and start printing. It auto-calibrates Z-offset, bed leveling, pressure advance, and input shaping. The 4.3" touchscreen, 8 GB of onboard storage, and OTA firmware updates make operation simple and modern.

Smart Features for Smarter Printing
Equipped with a built-in camera and internal lighting, you can monitor prints remotely or record timelapses. The system includes filament runout detection, power loss recovery, and a filament cutter for convenience. Its magnetic nozzle cover and dual-sided PEI/PLA flex plate enhance usability.

    Hm HN stocking 3d printers now..

    Decent price and closer to what it should cost.

    Note that the filament changer system has still not come out and will most likely be early next year.

    You can see it in person at Jaycar stores.
    Also worth considering is the Anycubic Kobra S1 at $729 with the ACE filament changer/dryer unit.

    Heads up the CC from jaycar does not come with a scraper blade so i would assume that its the same for HN
    https://help.jaycar.com.au/hc/en-us/articles/50503753619865-…

    • Scrapper blades are cheap and available in many places. Should not be a deal breaker.

      • +1

        Not a deal breaker but it should not be mentioned in the 'included' section.

        Odd that other printers have no issue and they aren't just your stanley knife blades.

    • Spot on. No scraper in the kit despite it being listed. As per others it's not a concern to me - already have plenty of tools but HN should update their listing anyway.

      • If it’s listed as included, you can request it then from H/N.

  • Have one, it was running 24/7 for a couple weeks. Brilliant, flawless, used PLA and PETG thus far. Very impressed. My third printer. This is by far the fastest and most accurate whilst also being the easiest to setup AND operate.
    Mine was from Jaycar and as mentioned it didn't come with a scraper but I haven't needed it: Double sided removable magnetic print plate, and if necessary cooling down time, the prints just lift off. Didn't know it was meant to come with one tbh. If the price is right for you, I'd definitely recommend it.

      It is a very solid printer, and most Jaycar stores have it on display. It makes the Anycubic Kobra S1 door feel like a toy since it's acrylic.

      $629 is the real price benchmark, as you can get a 10% off 1st shop code at any time.

      Just wish they can get it down closer to the US pricing of $299 USD. Even after taxes, it should sit around $550-600 rrp.
      The filament changer has also been delayed, most likely to arrive next year.

      • I'm interested to see where the evolution of multi colour goes before I worry too much about them. I got the ECC without that as a factor - it's a solid, reasonable priced enclosed printer with a build build volume and all the little features. Aussie tax sucks but what can you do 🤷

        The snapmaker, and now Prusa I guess, designs will be telling - I don't like how much waste multi colour has at the moment.

        • The U1 is making waves for sure.

          We'll see soon what the H2C delivers.
          INDX has been delayed into Q1 but that also looks promising.

        • Honestly, multi-colour is what I use it for the least. It's all about the convenience: continuing if a spool runs out, being able to setup my main colours to auto-load and unload, and with Bambu's AMS at least, recognising the material and colours automatically (Bambu filaments required).

          The real change to multi colour or material printing will be innovations like Bambu's upcoming Vortek system - the only downside is it definitely won't be cheap.

          • +1

            @Nukkels: Yeah, auto rollover is awesome for using up those almost-finished spools of filament.

            I’ve probably done fewer than 10 full multi-colour prints because of the purge waste, but I’ve done a ton of prints with one or two colour changes on the base or top layers for adding text and labels.

            The AMS is also super handy for prints where the colour changes happen between layers rather than having multiple colours on the same layer.

      • Rest of the world is subsidizing the tariffs on the CC in America

  • Wonder how a brick and mortar store will handle selling 3d printers to general public.

    3d printers need constant maintenance, and most companies expectations is you fix the printer yourself.

    Are Harvey norman going to RMA nozzle clogs? Jammed extruders? Bad quality prints? All these things are issues you'd be expected to fix yourself, but to the general public they would be RMA issues.

    • Jaycar has stepped up their game big time, and I would say are equipped to handle the questions from everyday users.

      With the way 3D printers are, there's a lot less to tinker with, but HN is not the place to go looking for one, but this is the best price on the Carbon Centauri so far, even though the face value of the gift card will be nowhere close due to inflated prices at HN.

    How does this compare to the Bambu Lab P1S? Considering these two. Thanks

    • +1

      It's a good alternative for the price savings. P1S would be considered first generation, with the improvements of the A1 going into the latest generation H2D/H2S printers.

      P1S is still a workhorse at $779.

      I would be waiting for Black Friday if I was planning on buying a Bambu, and the sale usually starts earlier than Thanksgiving.

      • -1

        Thanks got it. When you mean 1st generation, is it a big factor? Compared to latest generations? Aim to is introduce kids to 3d printing, print some household items, toys etc..

        • +4

          It’s not a huge deal, but the A1 does make a few things a bit easier — like swapping nozzles. It takes less than a minute and there are no wires to unplug, compared to the P1S. Not that it’s hard on the P1S, just one of those small quality-of-life upgrades. If you’re sticking with the standard 0.4 mm nozzle, you’ll be totally fine either way.

          I’d still recommend going with a Bambu Lab as your first printer, mainly because of the MakerWorld ecosystem. There are thousands of models with profiles already tuned for Bambu printers, so you can pretty much just hit “print” and let it do its thing — even straight from your phone or tablet.

          The A1 prints just as nice as the P1S if you want something more affordable.

          Grab a few colours of PLA from Jayo to start with, and maybe check out the dual silk clearance from Siddament — they’re awesome for toys and fun prints.

          If they’re into STEM stuff, have a look at Cyberbrick — it mixes 3D printing with programmable electronics, which is pretty cool.

          Take a visit into Jaycar to see some machines in person, they usually have a bunch of prints out on display as well.

          I'm yet to bring this over to my new site, but there's a breakdown of sample prints/photos of colours etc here

            @3dprintdeals: Wow great tips. Thanks mate. You are right, i am sort of leaning towards the Bambu too. I do somewhat prefer the form factor of the P1S over the A1. An enclosure might help contain the particles better?

            Hopefully there will be a decent sale nearing to black friday. Love the Cyberbrick suggestion too, will be great for the kids.

            • @Tiredman: The enclosed formfactor is neater and does keep sound & heat inside. There is no filtration on the unit but there are addons like the Bentobox to add proper filtration.

              Bambu historically has done big sales twice a year, anniversary sale around June & Black Friday.

              Another note when comparing printers, is that price & features is not everything. One thing that doesn't come up as often in printer reviews is real world noise. The cheaper printers have to cut costs somewhere. Fans are one of those places.

              Have a listen to the running noise of the Carbon Centauri vs the P1S. This is something I also found when trying out the Anycubic Kobra 3 V2 with constantly running power supply fan vs Bambu A1 which is pratically silent at idle.

  • ok got it, now time to learn how to use one… see if I like this or not…
    I spent a bit more so I have $268 in H/N gift cards, so thinking of buying a bunch of their PLA that's on special until the 12th.
