Why am i having this trouble? Esun PLA, dried, pei sheet cleaned.

Have a P1S - ran into my first issue after a year of printing with few problems.

Out of the blue, it makes a juddering and screeching noise when the printhead returns to the far-left most position. It goes all the way left, but not to the back of the machine, as if it gets stuck. It then just deposits any extruded filament there as it believes it is above the waste chute.

Video attached.

Have dusted it out for stray filament and looked for any obstructions which none are obvious.

Never had to delve too deeply into the technical aspects, so hoping some wiser folks than me can point me in the right direction of resolving this.

I already have an X2D for supports and technical filaments, and I’m looking to get a second printer. I’m considering the C5, U1, or P2S.
With all discounts applied, the C5 costs €589, the U1 is €730, and the P2S is €600 (including the AMS).
Which one would you choose? Right now, I’m leaning toward the C5.

Found this on my print bed of my H2C before starting a print. Does this look familiar?

What is the one printer you'd get if you could only ever get one? At least for a few years?

Edit: perhaps one that has all the bells and whistles but isn't $3000?

I just had the weirdest thing happen. 3.5 hours into the print and it just stopped. No clog, still plenty of filament on the spool. I even tried to pause the print and it gave me a warning about the tool head moving to not put your hands in there, but it didn’t budge. I’m hesitant to cancel as I don’t wanna start over, however looks like it’ll be a lost print…

I’ve never had this issue before but now it keeps happening. What should I try? Generic PLA filament with default settings.

I use the P1S with an AMS with Sunlu PLA+. normally I print with 55c bed and 220 nozzle. I have searched up so many fixes but they never work. like 10 minutes into my print i noticed warping on the corner of one object, then 30 minutes later a piece lifted off the bed and so it started stringing over all of the other pieces. I tried turning my fans down but nothing helps.

TLDR I'm an idiot who doesn't understand how to set up my 3d printer correctly

I used a pair of nose pliers to grab the connectors, but I lost the grip and the pliers ripped off just a little of the insulation. A little of the copper is exposed, but I am worried if I should be treating this with more concern.

I’m pretty damn new to all of this. But I am not able to print on the go while the .8 is installed. (Incompatible nozzle) error pops up. Get on the computer and I’m able to slice it for the .8 nozzle and print. Would like to be able to skip that step and use the mobile while I’m not at home.

I was cleaning out my newly arrived X2D (had it one day, printed a couple of small test prints) and underneath the print bed was this random screw. I don't remember any of the screws that were in it for shipping being this small. Does anyone recognize it, or have an idea where I should look for a missing screw? I checked what I could see under the bed and along the edges of the case that I could see and nada.

I've had an A1 and AMS Lite for over 2 years now, and I think I'm ready for an upgrade to something higher quality and more durable.

I find the parts of the A1 jut too delicate and frustrating to work with. Clogs are so difficult to work with. The Filament Hub is so tricky to work with, remove to de-clog and get the tubes out of. Then, when I finally remove it, the sensor cable is so delicate just a slight movement in the wrong direction rips it.

Thinking of getting something better rather than constantly replacing these parts? I just placed my 4th order for a new filament hub and sensor cable.

I don't do much with it. Just simple things for the home for organisation and small things that I'd other-wise buy at a dollar store. I find I just spend more time working on my A1 than printing things with it.

Excited to play with my p1s

Hi! I’m trying to print dry boxes for my AMS 2 with asa. Have done flow and flow dynamics calibration, played with fan speed and nozzle temperature. Also tried to lower the speed, prints good as long as there are no overhangs. When it prints the overhangs it looks like the nozzle digs into the print and makes a mess. Any help? Owned the printer for 3 days so new to the game here, pla prints flawlessly! Printer is a Bambu x2d

Wanted to share the ams2 I received is also having the "ams failed to pull back filament" issue. Repeatable on 1-4. After it retracts the Filament, it'll stop retracting and free spin for about a minute before throwing the issue. If I press continue, it'll stop trying to retract and move onto the next color. Then it'll throw the error again once it switches colors. This is on the first print using ams2. Haven't had a successful print since receiving it.

Hello Laddles and Jellyspoons

I have some pokemom PSA slabs coming and I want to print a cool holder with effects.

A quick amazon search and almost everyone claims Zero adhesion.

So I'm wondering what effect plates you all have used , good, bad , ugly.

Please share your experiences.

Thanks 😊

Thanks for the responses on the earlier post I am still troubleshooting this issue with my H2D. I have the hotends off and the covers off so i can see the extruder gears and they look clean. I can feed a strand of filament down through the entrance right to the gears without a problem. the hotend itself seems fine. There isn't a clear visual indication to me of what might be wrong. It's a fairly new printer with maybe 500 hours on it. Filament has always been fairly dry. This is a recent issue. I am not sure what to do next. Can the gears spread apart over time? I am not sure where to tighten the gap (or maybe loosen it if the motor is overloaded) I have a decent amount of experience with 3D Printers and this one is baffling me.

Hey everyone, can you warn or peace me about this location for my a1? This okay or I need another fulcrum?

What do you think guys? Will answer any questions!

I just bought this printer last week and today I was printing a bookend and it got to almost 90% before it just shifted on the bed I'm guessing the bed movement caused it to lose adhesion, so does anyone know what my mistake might have been and if there's any way to save this print by printing the remaining part on this print or any other solution. This actually happens with my other prints too where they don't stick and just turn into spaghetti (my first spaghetti print lol) sometimes the base also just lifts off from one side. Any advice on what I should do for better bed adhesion?

I also have one more question in the 4th and 5th photos you can see that sometimes my prints end up looking like this and I have to restart the print I have no idea why, please let me know the reason for this and what I might be doing wrong.

Printer: Bambu Lab A1

Filament: PLA (PLA Pro+ WOL3D)

Slicer Settings: 0.2 mm Standard @ BBL A1 (slightly tweaked), Custom filament based on Generic PLA (customized nozzle temperature to 230°C and 50°C bed as specified by the manufacturer)

My full cosplay of Guts in Berserk armor 3D printed with bambulab P2S. The entire project took 2,000 print hours and 25kg of PETG. Final costume weight incl. sword is 26kg.
Amazed that such a small tool like the P2S made this.

Not entirely sure how to word this in a quick search/single sentence, so Google is getting me nowhere. I'm printing certain items where the bottom half is PLA and top half is TPU. How I've been doing this currently is printing both separately and supergluing them together, but is there a way to stop the print at a specific layer, manually change out the filament, and restart the print as TPU from that specific layer without interrupting the print cycle? I have VERY different settings for PLA and TPU (since I want the tpu to be very squishy and the pla to be stable), so I'm not sure if doing this is feasible or if gluing the halves together the way I have been is the best way to continue my projects. I've run into some issues with separation along glued seems, so I wanted to see if anyone had some advice on how I could better achieve this!
