The P1P might not be as easy as the X1C, as they took out some of the sensors like lidar to set flow, but at the price point, I think it's a better value than a Prusa MK3. And I am a Prusa loyalist. |

^ agreed!
Very nice new software update announced: https://blog.bambulab.com/christmas-gifts-from-bambu-lab/ AMS gets boosted Do you have too many spools lying around with little filament left in them, and wish to finish them all without worrying that your print gets interrupted? The AMS will now automatically switch to the same filament type when the current spool being used is finished. Bambu filaments are automatically identified by the AMS, along with the remaining capacity of a spool, which is also measured automatically after this upgrade. For third-party filaments, you simply need to ensure that the filaments being used are set to be the same in the UI, i.e. two rolls in the AMS are set to be the same vendor, material and color. The humidity sensor is now enabled, so you can monitor the chamber environment via the printer UI or Bambu Handy and Bambu Studio remotely. |

AMA,
https://old.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/zmneu9/i_am_dr_ye_tao_ceo_of_bambu_lab_ask_me_anything/ 200 engineers at BL now, more on software than on hardware. Questions about using proprietary parts for common structures like nozzles: The concept of standard parts is appealing, it means lower cost, robust supply chain and excellent design because a specific team can work for the whole world. We use lots of standard parts in X1, motors, bearing, pulley, smooth rod, power unit. These are parts that reach their R&D plateau, which means so mature that you can hardly improve them. For hotend, there are so much you can improve on a V6. Higher flow rate, compact body, lower mass and easy to replace and you name it. So after some consideration, we decided to design our own hot end. I think we made the right choice because E3D released their new hot end during our R&D which means they think the same. I understand people's concern over proprietary parts. One is over-priced part for customers who are locked in. The other is the availability of the parts. For the first one, we price our parts at a very fair price. One evidence is that we found many people purchasing our hotend actually do not own a Bambu printer, they are the DIYer who think our hotend is high performance and cost effective and want to adapt it to a Voron. For the second part, we are building up inventories gloablly and we are open to third party collaboration for spare parts. Also saw this today, people starting to make printable parts for the internals: https://www.printables.com/model/333396-bambulab-extruder-gear-holder |

P1Ps are being delivered. Quote from Reddit:
15 minutes to setup was an exaggeration. Maybe if you include the auto cal and firmware update? Anyway, it's printing better than my prusa, except its moving like it did a line of coke and chased it with some Adderall. Goddamned I am happy. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Ragnar_Lothbrok: Does their slicer let you pause at specific layer heights to insert hardware into pockets? I haven't done it but apparently so. Quote from the net, but screenshot from my slicer Yes. Pauses are easy. In the slicer you move the slider to where you want to pause and right click on the slider. When the printer gets there the head will move to the back and turn off the heat for the nozzle. I have done a lot of inserted magnets. you start it again from the screen, it heats up, wipes the nozzle and continues. So far I can never tell what layer it stopped at.  Attached File |

Has anyone had success in printing petg in the carbon yet? I started a print in push plastic petg (which was shit printing even on my cr10 too) and one in atomic petg (which was my goto for my cr10 to print), I stopped both at the first layer due to how terrible they were, very globbed up, looked like over extrusion.
I've had really good results with the included bamboo pla and atomic filament abs so far though. |

Is this what you are running into (Video in Reddit Link)? Link I think my filament was too wet, cause after some time in the AMS it started to behave better on the first layer. But I also disabled the first layer inspection cause that's where most of the globes came from. The filament would ooze out as it was inspecting the layer, and then not break free during the nozzle wipe, as in the video in the link. You can disable that from your printer in the setting menu. But Like I said after some time in the AMS the print's first layer comes out with out glob or stringing. |

Mine was doing that, plus at the end of each printed line before a rapid move it would leave raised pieces I can only call over extrusion. Watching the first layer print the laydown wasn't very even either, like something I would expect to see if my creality machines nozzle height was way too close to the bed. I'll see if I can find my scrapped pieces and post a picture. Possible the filament is to wet too, it's always been in open air but always prints great on my creality printer as is. |

I turn down the chamber fan to %50 when the print start. I'm not sure why they crank it to 100%. I have not had an issue with a print with the chamber at 50%. It didn't even kick in on me at first printing PLA on the cold plate, I guess it only kicks in when the chamber temp is so high.

Litterly, don't even come with side pannels. But in doing so they stripped down the price, $700, and made what is about the fastest PLA "Budget" printer. |

For me it's not the fans being loud its just the machine whizzing around. Even though I have it in a spare bedroom with the door closed there is no way i could run a print overnight in this thing. But thankfully with it being so quick most prints won't need that.

430 hours on my printer now according to its log. Took most of December off due to moving, but now have printer in an outbuilding so I can print 24/7 if I have things to do. However, I don't have internet out there so I'm doing the foot-powerer internet with an sd card. Printed some can cannon projectiles and quite a bit of gridfinity and other small house parts for my new place.
Trying my first PETG right now. Using the AMS makes colored projectiles very easy, with minimal wastage since there's only a couple swaps (but it does print the purge tower). This was 75% infill. I think it was about a 12 hour print? You can see the sun come up.  video 2023 01 10 13 35 38 |

I can get one PETG can cannon projectile out of each Sunlu 250-gr teaser roll
With the new firmwear it told me my humidity was high in the AMS, so I replaced the stock dessicant and printed these extra holders. The third circular one is for the tiny temp/hydrogemeter (sp?). Somehwat disappointed how the big overhang got messy when all the little slot bridges worked fine. Yes, I may be arranging items on the plate for the best timelapses.  video 2023 01 20 10 54 52 |

Going to class up this place. Good illustration of the tree supports.
Had some weirdness on the left wing, but after cleaning it up I can't really see what it is lacking. This was 240mm tall, about 350g filament, 9 hours, all settings at default. Someday I might redo this in the 0.08 super fine layer height. Edit: Watching this again, I see what happened. The prime tower (required for the smooth timelapse) detached so future layers were spraying into thin air and it collected on the wing.  video 2023 01 24 07 35 08 |

Seeing some interesting 4-AMS setups in the wild.
 Attached FileThis was a large PETG print, I've been looking for things that are 200-250g to use up the Sunlu teaser rolls. This is a spiral egg tray thingy. It got kind of fuzzy on the top surface of the ramps. PETG has almost too much bed adhesion on the PEI plate.  video 2023 01 27 08 42 50 |

Oh no. That doesn't look good. Mine has been over heating on the hot end. I went through the Bambu Labs wiki troubleshooting. I sent them a service ticket too. After having the printer turned off for a couple of hours I haven't had the error code. Weird. So far it has been a great printer way better then my Ender 3. I hope they can fix your issue.

Thank you for the update. One of my concerns is how is their customer service. So are they sending you a bed or a whole new printer? Was there an option? I know a lot of us here are technical and mechanically inclined, but I can't see the average person replacing a bed. Since they are somewhat going after that market. Keep us updated on how the repair goes.

Link to an Edge of Tech video on maintenance, and some discussion in the comments about possible improvements. My printer is birtching to clean the rods.
https://old.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/10yceka/great_maintenance_video/ I also have only 3 working AMS slots. One ran out of filament, and it won't accept a new one. The entrance hole isn't flexible like the others, I suspect there's a piece of filament lodged in there, I will disassemble to fix this, plus other maintenance tasks, after some emergency V-day printing is done this weekend. I printed some dessicant holders and got some loose rechargeable dessicant, and a hydrometer. AMS nicely runs at 10% all the time now, in the 45%ish ambient garden shed that i print in. Previously the Bambuslicer was showing a red marker for the humidity in the AMS. |

I printed those desiccant holders in the first week. I think that is what solved the issue I had with PETG oozing. Definitely, a must-print item if you get an AMS.
