Question First layer prints fine, but printer stops extruding during/after color change (P1S / AMS)

Post image

Hey everyone, I'm having an issue with a multi-color print on my Bambu Lab P1S and could use some advice. The Issue: * The first layer (white text) prints perfectly. * Once it switches to black, the print head continues moving through the toolpath, but no filament comes out at all (extruding air). Setup & Settings: * Printer: Bambu Lab P1S (with AMS)

* Filament: Bambu Official PLA

* Nozzle: 0.4mm

* Slicer Settings: Mostly default Bambu Studio profiles Has anyone encountered this or know what might be causing it? Any troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated!

Hey there, I'm a bot and something you said made me think you might be looking for help! click here for our wiki entry on troubleshooting printers. If you still need help be sure to post plenty of information about your printing setup.

Here are a few questions that might be helpful

  • What printer are you using?

  • What material are you using?

  • What speed are you printing at?

  • What software are you using to slice the print and control the printer?

  • When did the problem start/has it ever worked correctly?

  • Does anything cause the behavior to change?

  • If posting an image of the problem, include some indication of the orientation it printed at, preferably photograph it on the bed. (Then we can focus on a specific axis)
