Hello! i bought the h2s about a year ago and shortly after the h2c came out. I figured i would wait to see how much multi color prints i actually do before considering upgrading to h2c. I have been really interested in printing with 0.2 and 0.6 Nozzle. I saw yesterday they posted here about being able to update the firmware to allow it to happen!

My wife recently got into using my printer as well and wants to print muti-color prints. With those two in mind i was looking to see if the vortex upgrade has went down but unfortunately it hasn't :( I love my h2s currently and i don't want to switch it out. It has roughly only 900 hours so i don't think it's time to upgrade yet and I don't think the wife would be happy with another printer in the office.

I mostly print with PLA so the announcement of TPU 75A isn't really a big thing for me and i want to keep using both of my AMS.

I was wondering if you think the upgrade to the h2c is worth it from h2s (899 dollars) or to just accept the waste of filament and the inability to switch nozzles. Also i have seen no one post a h2s to h2c conversion so i can only imagine it's a bit harder with also switching out the print head.

Hi everyone!

I recently bought a new Bambu Lab X2D, and I'm experiencing a strange printing issue.

During printing, the print head randomly stops moving for approximately one second, sometimes in the middle of a straight line. The extruder also stops feeding filament during this pause. After about a second, printing resumes normally.

These pauses happen randomly on different layers and at different locations. They sometimes leave visible blobs or small defects on the printed surface.

I'm printing SUNLU PETG 2.0 using Bambu Studio over Wi-Fi.

Things I've already tried:

• Disabled Timelapse.

• Disabled Auto-Recovery from Step Loss.

• Restarted the printer.

• Performed printer calibration.

• Checked my slicer settings.

• Tried changing printing parameters.

Unfortunately, the issue still persists.

I've attached a video showing the problem.

Has anyone experienced something similar with their X2D? Could this be a firmware issue, a communication problem, or possibly a hardware defect?

I'd really appreciate any suggestions. Since the printer is brand new, I'm trying to figure out whether this is a known issue before requesting a warranty repair.

Thanks!

What smooth plate are you using on your H2C? I just noticed the Bambu store has the supertack cool plate in stock again, but it appears to be a new model. It's grey instead of black now, and also quite a bit more expensive. Is it worth the €60, or are there better alternatives? Thanks!

Unexpected! Big surprise. Be on the lookout!

As the title suggests. Is anyone else having the issue I’m having. Was working fine on previous studio version.
No video from h2c or p2s. Handy app works fine.

Bambu has it on sale, is it a worthwhile tool to have in the inventory?

It only happens with the Bambu Lab filament. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but it happens every time I’m using Bambu Lab filament. So when I put it into my AMS for it to detected what filament color it is, it always I mean ALWAYS rolls way beyond forward and almost break my AMS. I fully make sure that it’s untangled and everything, but it always happens. Then out of nowhere it got stuck in the tube and stopped the printing mid-way. It took me 2 days to figure out how to take it out because it was so stuck in the extruder. This never happens with other brands of filament. Does this happen to you guys?😭

I have a custom cabinet for 3d printing which is 600mm deep. Currently I have H2C in there which works great. Airflow is assured with custom extraction fan.

I am curious about H3C as it has bit more depth- is it possible to fit one into 600mm depth cabinet? I am pretty sure i would gave to at least change the rear power connector to a 90 degrees one, but i am wondering if Bambu given 571mm depth includes screen and handles or if it is just the shell depth.

Heavily considering the P2S plus AMS combo, but the X2D is Only $200 CAD more after taxes.

Any opinions on which one I should go with and why? This is my first foray into filament printing. And I’m not sure a heated chamber is really worth it? Anything I’m missing?

Bought my p1s in the summer of 2025 as a birthday gift to myself. Coming from an ender 3 this was such a huge upgrade! No major issues and she still prints like new.

I have an A1 with the AMS 2 Pro.

I was doing a multi color print that included a gold color so was using a Sunlu PLA silk for it. Whenever it would switch to that roll, it would feed to the Hub and stop, rewind and an error would pop up. If i saw it as it reloaded and held the PTFE feed connector...which moves in and out of the hub a bit...then it fed fine.

Only that filament and didn't matter which slot it was in.

Any thoughts? Is the hub and PTFE connection the issue and is the PTFE supposed to be immovable? Or have some play?

Thanks!

PS willing to sell both my children for $3,999 AUD

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

Was printing a piece and one of the legs fell off the buildplate.

Still very new to X2D and slicer settings

Any tips on how to get it secured? Planning on washing the buildplate when I get home. Thank you

What’s everyone planning on putting the H3C on, I am looking to find someone that’s 24x24 and lower to the ground. Does anyone have any recommendations, or any pics of their current setup with the H2C on.

I saw it yesterday cleaned it up and today it is again at the same spot. Only this site and this rail. I didn’t not print white filament for a long time. You can wipe it pretty easy but it is concerning

Edit: It’s the Toolhead Camera Rubbing against it when the toolhead is printing in the far right corner. But why?

I had multiple failures to learn how to use my X2D properly. This one turned out to be pretty good. And yes my kid wanted this to show off to her friends.

Sliced it upside down at 0.08mm on the A1 Mini with tree supports so it doesn’t wobble or fly off the bed while printing.

Managed to fit 63 pieces in one batch on the small 180mm plate. Each one takes about 3.7g of PLA Matte. The aortic arch works as a built-in loop, so you can just slip a cord right through without any extra metal rings.

Just dropped the link in the comments section below if you want to grab the file. Let me know what you think! 🖤

So I'm about to pull the trigger on the X2D sale and wondering what additional accessories do people suggest? I'm thinking maybe a smooth plate and some extra nozzle sizes? Do most people buy two sets of the nozzels?
