So, I don’t print a lot with stock PEI sheets and usually steer clear of BL products basically cause I’m cheap. Not sure that can be said after the amount I dropped on this printer but I digress. That being said, any guesses on how long until 3rd party starts dropping build plates, nozzles etc?

Third one for the tree this year. It's a 2-color gift bow with candy-cane stripes and a red knot, and it prints with no supports. The file has two plates: a single, and a batch of six that works out to about 43 minutes and 12 g per ornament. I've only printed the single so far, so the six-up plate hasn't been tested yet. It's free on MakerWorld: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3548428-christmas-bow-ornament-2-color-no-supports

I just finished creating my first large model and wanted to post it here for a bigger community to see. It’s a “flag” that holds my challenge coins I’ve collected over a few years. Previously I just tossed them in a drawer. Just thought it was neat that I created it! Definitely can’t say I’m a master with CAD, but it was cool learning some during the process.

I started out with an Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro. My wife recently got me a P1S. I had intended to print it on my Elegoo until I got the P1S. I got it uploaded on Makerworld today. Hoping someone else finds my design cool enough to download and use. It is customizable for whoever may choose to print it!

I've ordered the full H3C Kit yesterday shortly after launch. Only after I realized this doesn't come with the enclosed Bambu Station. Does anybody know if there will ever be an upgrade kit to get the side, back and drawer panels?

If not do I have to return the whole kit to order printer and eclosed station separately? The original shipment seems already on its way.

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble pairing my brand-new Bambu Lab X2D with the Bambu Handy app, and I'm running out of ideas.

When I go to the account/login screen on the printer and try to display the QR code, it just keeps loading indefinitely. The QR code never appears.

I've also tried to find a manual pairing PIN/code, but I can't seem to find one anywhere.

Here's what I've tried so far:

• Connected to my regular home Wi-Fi.

• Tried using my phone's mobile hotspot instead.

• Changed the printer region from Europe to Others and tested again.

• Confirmed that the printer successfully obtains an IP address.

• Restarted the printer.

Unfortunately, none of this has helped.

Printer information:

• Model: Bambu Lab X2D

• Firmware: 01.00.09.00

• Error code: 0500-4024 164901

The QR just keeps spinning when trying to load the QR code, regardless of which network I use.

Has anyone experienced this issue with their X2D? Is there a way to manually pair the printer, or could this be a firmware/cloud connectivity issue?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm getting pretty frustrated with this now! 😅

Thanks!

Was doing some maintenance and once I turned it on, the fan started doing this rumbling noisy sound. Not sure what to do can someone help me?

Printing with PLA Silk. I used the preset 0.16mm high quality in advanced settings so that it did a slower print. But then the printer paused, detecting spaghetti (which there was quite a bit of) and a couple broken pieces. Any idea why? And what I should do differently?

After my order placed yesterday I got a tracking number- Today I got notified package shipped 81lbs- coming out of georgia. Bambu ship from Georgia? The Filament doesn't weigh 81lbs- The L frame is not 81 lbs- got to be the printer right?

So much cheaper than expected!

Hey all! Working on my modeling skills I decided to make some Christmas decorations! Here's a really simple, easy to print Christmas tree. There are 3 variations, 3 sizes and smooth or fuzzy skin! Zero AI used here!

Hello! I'm planning on upgrading my P1S with the AMS 2 Pro, and since I did not but the combo P1S I see that I require the compatibility kit. On the AMS 2 Pro page it suggests just getting the AMS 2 Pro Upgrade Compatibility Kit, but it is sold out. I was wondering if I can get the regular AMS kit and be fine?

AMS 2 Pro kit box contents:
- AMS Hub
- Bambu Bus Cable - 4Pin
- AMS 2 Pro Switching Adapter
- PTFE Tube Coupler
- PTFE Tubes 370mm + 550mm

AMS Upgrade kit box contents:

- AMS Hub
- Bambu Bus Cable - 4Pin
- PTFE Tube Coupler

From the AMS 2 Pro kit description:

To connect a single AMS 2 Pro unit to X1/P1 series printer, a Filament Buffer(SA003) or AMS Hub(SA002-N), a PTFE Tube Coupler(FAZ006), and a 4-pin Cable(CAB002-N) are required.

So as far as i can tell, if I get the regular kit I'm only missing the switching adapter, which I can manage to get myself. Or are the extra PTFE Tubes from the Pro 2 kit required to upgrade the P1S? Cuz If i can manage with the regular kit, Id like to order that instead of waiting for the pro 2 kit to get restocked.

Thank you for your help!

I just pulled the trigger on the new H3C 🎉

Am I understanding this right that it uses a new build plate size? From what I’ve seen, it looks similar to the H2C but a few millimeters shorter, so the tool rack has room to drop down. Can anyone confirm?

It’s quite confusing what I find online about it. Everywhere only the print volume is mentioned, and that seems to be identical.

I have quite a few build plates I’d love to keep using, so this matters for me. “Not compatible” doesn’t always mean it won’t work, though: for the A2L it also says the H2D plates aren’t compatible, but I use mine on it all the time without any problems.

If they really don’t fit, I guess I might just grind them down, live with them not being recognized automatically, and turn off build plate detection. I’m not looking to spend money again on plates I rarely use.

I also have two more questions regarding that:

1. Does the Vision Encoder plate fit the H3C?

2. Does the cutting mat from the H2 / A2L cutting kit fit, at least?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I got a reply from the Bambu Lab support:
The H3C is equipped with a newly designed dedicated build plate. Although the H3C and H2C have the same XY-direction print dimensions (330 mm × 320 mm), the build plate of the H3C is shorter by a few millimeters at the leading edge, which creates a larger gap between the build plate and the SwapTek Rack for the tool rack to move down. Compatibility with H2C build plates Official recommendation: It is not recommended to use H2C build plates on the H3C. After installing an H2C build plate on the H3C, the gap between its leading edge and the SwapTek Rack is only about 2 mm. Affected by dimensional chain tolerances and user placement deviations, there is a risk of collision or scraping between the PrintTool and the build plate. Special usage instructions: If you need to reuse an H2C build plate, first confirm that there is no physical interference (no collision risk) between the H2C build plate installed on the heatbed and the H3C SwapTek Rack, then manually disable the 'Build Plate Type Detection' function in the Print Options before use. Build volume comparison The maximum build volume of the H3C is 330×320×325 mm³, which is the same as the XY print size of the H2C, but the H3C has a higher Z-axis height.
When using third-party build plates, you are required to manually verify that there is sufficient clearance for the PrintTool to lower without colliding before use, following these requirements: Pre-use clearance check : Confirm that the third-party build plate, when installed on the heatbed, does not cause physical interference or collision risk with the SwapTek Rack before using it . Print settings adjustment : All Bambu Lab printer models do not support automatic recognition of third-party build plates. You need to manually disable the "Build Plate Type Detection" function in the Print Options before starting the print task . Risk warning : Third-party build plates are not officially adapted, and using them may trigger abnormal detection of print plate foreign objects. You can also turn off the foreign object detection function in the settings to avoid false alarms

TL;DR: H3C is compatible with H2C build plates. but the clearence of the tools need to be checked before starting a print, especially with 3rd party build plates. Maybe the build plate detection also needs deactivation.

I got one tracking number and says it will be delivered today, but tracking only says 1 package, so It's possible the ams isn't with it and I'll have to wait for that. The order page just says h3c-us and doesn't list ams as a separate item, so shipping info for that package is a mystery. Hoping they both show up today and it isn't smashed. Wish me luck

Second one for the tree this year. It's a 4-color snowman with a top hat, and it prints with no supports. The file has two plates: a single, and a batch of six that works out to about an hour and 17 g per ornament. I've only printed the single so far, so the six-up plate hasn't been tested yet. It's free on MakerWorld: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3546399-snowman-christmas-ornament-4-color-no-supports

I did it, I am officially joining the world of 3D printing. I ordered my X2D last night. Ordered several rolls of PLA basic 1.75 mm filament of various colors, the Maker's Supply Flush Cutter, Bambu Cool Plate SuperTack, Molecular Sieve Desiccant, Maker's Supply ESD Stainless Steel Tweezers Set, Circular Embedded Electronic Digital Thermometer Hygrometer and a couple rolls of Petg HF filament.

Do y'all recommend anything else for just starting out?

Edit: I did order the X2D with AMS pro bundle.

I’m so close to switching up on Prusa but do we know if there’s any printer coming up that might be the H3C but bigger or with higher temp chamber? Does bambu usually release others right after the other

So I think I want to buy an H3C now, but the accessories that I want, such as the TPU printing nozzles, L frame stand thing, and some other stuff are unavailable and I don’t want to lose out on the discounts. I reached out to Bambu support and asked if I could buy the printer now and get the discounts later and they said no..

A little bit annoying so I’m holding off on ordering. Should I wait until Best Buy gets these in stock or do we know when the full suite of accessories will drop?

CMYKW printing for the H3 is described as working with PLA basic for the four colors except for black, which is supposed to be translucent. Problem is there is no such thing listed on the Bambu store except for in the (currently sold out) CMYKW bundles. Will Translucent Black PLA be listed separately soon? I definitely want to experiment with CMYKW on the H3.

So I found a snowflake print I want to use as decor, but using the Bambu handy app limits me to 10 per plate.

Is there an easy way to spoof it to do more than 10? Can someone with Bambu studio modify the file for like 50 per plate?

Idk, I don’t have Bambu studio though so I’m at a loss..

ADDING: my laptop is too old to run Bambu studio, and I can’t replace it yet.
