I followed the instructions from the crealty site
and copied the header info into the header area of KM but didn’t get a successful print. Any help appreciated.
try this device profile that I derived from the stock K1 profile. just import it or drag it into your workspace
creality_k1_max.km (3.7 KB)

I’ll give that a go. Thanks.
Didn’t print successfully 
Threw up an error code, which I failed to note down!
I’ll need more info. Did anything happen?
It printed a the first layer, but not very well, then the nozzle blocked!
that requires a little tuning of the flow rate and perhaps print speeds. was it over or under extruding?
I think it was under extruding.
Here is a gcode file generated by the crealty slicer if that helps.
(Sorry couldn’t upload, so I’ve pasted edited highlights below)
