Get ready for the next generation of our Geeetech 3D printer with the Geeetech M1 Mini printer that will be available for presale on the official website starting February 25, 2025. Geeetech M1 small 3D printer will deliver top-quality results in less than 30 minutes, compared to the average of 1 hour for regular 3D printers. We are very excited to finally be sharing all the details, so keep reading below!
High-Speed & Premium Quality Print
For the Geeetech M1 we have focused on designing a fast and portable 3D printer that can deliver quality prints whether you are a beginner or seasoned pro. This is made possible due to the large-capacity nozzle that is combined with a direct drive extruder, a 50W hot-end heating rod, a heated bed and a large-size model cooling fan, resulting in a printing speed of up to 250mm/s.
We have also been designing the custom firmware for our small 3D printer, which comes with 2 advanced algorithms out of the box.
With the input shaping firmware, the M1 printer minimizes vibrations and ringing artifacts in the 3D prints, allowing you to print at much higher speeds without reducing the quality.
Using the pressure advance functionality, you will see the results in form of a more consistent extrusion, as our firmware prevents the blobs that typically form at corners or during acceleration of the print head. This gives you sharper corners and less stringing effects. This makes our M1 the best 3D printer for small prints at the moment!
Stable Structure
We have also been working on designing the overall structure for the Geeetech M1 3d printer, making designs to ensure that the entire machine remains firm and stable while printing at high speeds, in order to produce premium quality results, making it the best 3D printer for beginners looking to get started with ease. Some of the designs include:
- Leather pulley reinforcement
- Hotbed three bearings
- Thickened filament bracket
- Premium hardness plastic
Direct Drive Extruder
One of the main innovations on the Geeetech M1 is the dual-drive gear Direct Drive Extruder with a gear ratio of up to 5:1, which allows for fast 3D printing, and provides greater torque, greater extrusion force, faster response speed and a higher printing accuracy compared to BOWDEN extruders that are common on the market currently. Due to this innovation, it also becomes easier to print with soft TPU materials and flexible filament.
Fully Automatic 16-point Leveling
Another reason why we believe this is a good beginner 3D printer for everyone getting started with printing, is that the Geeetech M1 integrates a high-precision pressure sensor on the hot end, that is designed to measure the flatness of the hot bed throughout the nozzle. This provides a fully automatic hotbed leveling, which in turn greatly reduces the difficulty for beginners in setting up and calibrating the machine.
High Torque Stepper Motors ( 1.8°stepper motors )
For stepper motors, the Geeetech M1 uses 42*42*35mm NEMA 17 motors on both the X, Y and Z-axis, which results in more power and precision. The direct drive extruder makes use of a 36*19.5mm Nema 14-round stepper motor, which effectively reduces the weight of the print head, while meeting the performance requirements we have set forth in our design documents.
Efficient Heat Dissipation
One issue that fast 3D printing is known for is a buildup of heat. However, with our innovative design the Geeetech M1 has effectively solved the problem with overheating on printers of this size, due to the 50×50×15mm large-size blower that improves printing speed and model quality while keeping everything cooled down to the appropriate temperatures. We have even added a cooling fan to the motherboard for the stepper motor drive in order to further ensure proper heat dissipation and reliability during high-speed printing.
Filament Runout Sensor
Continuing with the theme of being beginner friendly, the Geeetech M1 has an advanced detection sensor for filament breaks and running out. This way the printer will stop if the 3D printer filament breaks or runs out at any point during the printing process. You can also resume the printing once you have fixed the filament break or resupply filament, allowing you to keep your print without having to start all over.
And the filament runout sensor with tension release function which aims to avoid filament breaks due to friction.
Automatic Nozzle Cleaner
Based on feedback and results from our previous 3D printers, we have designed the Geeetech M1 with an automatic cleaning nozzle device, that handles nozzle maintenance which is one of the most common issues. This way you do not have to manually clean after every print.
And more, the silicone brush that can withstand temperatures up to 300°C for a short time, and
the brush has a good performance of removing residue and exudate from the nozzle and has little wear. I guess the most important point that customers want to know is whether the automatic nozzle cleaner will interfere with the movement of the print head. The answer is NO. The automatic nozzle cleaner will not affect the work of the print head.
More User-Friendly Designs
We have also designed the Geeetech M1 to be a great 3D printer for kids, as the user-friendly interface includes a 2.4″ LCD color screen with ample space for displaying all the necessary information. The PEI print plate makes it easy to remove the model after printing, and the added 3 high-brightness LED lights provide plenty of light to make it easy to work on the machine or the print at any time of day.

The Printout of Geeetech M1
Below you can see a few examples of the prints made with our Geeetech M1, which also uses Geeetech 3D printer filament. The first two images show the soft prints made with TPU filament, which is a flexible material that still provides high fidelity and accurate details, while also being incredibly malleable.
The final image shows a few objects made with PLA filament, which is one of the most common types of filament used in the market. The prints have lovely smooth surfaces without any rough parts, and since the material itself has a low cost, it is the perfect filament to combine with the M1 for some of the best budget 3D printer results available on the market at the moment.
