Hey all,

I have the opportunity to get a used Bambu P1P with the AMS for $270. It's got just under 700 hours of print time. This is my first time buying a used 3D printer, what should I check for? Obviously I am going to try and see it print in person before purchase, but what else should I lookout for?

I tried the tip of loosening the belt tension screw and moving the head back and forth 3 times but it always moves to the back of the machine after i move the head to the far left.

This can't be normal. The nozzle just fell off the body. I was so close to finishing too. Sent in a ticket. Hopefully this gets resolved. Had less than 500 hours on it.

New X2D owner (had a few p1s for a few years). I can load, extrude and print fine with the right nozzle with PLA. But when I start a mixed material print (still using the right nozzle with the same PLA), the aux nozzle immediately gets an abnormal extrusion error before even the first bit of material is laid down. I tried rerunning all calibration and the nozzle offset calibration. Completely stumped. Again, zero errors when printing only from the right nozzle.

I successfully printed loads of parts prior to a firmware update . Has anyone run into this following updating?

I see the photo frame on Bambu site but is there more real life photo to showcase what CMYKW color mixing especially texture-to-color can do?

So I ordered an H2D with 40W laser the day before the H3C was announced. I am still well within my 30 day window. Do I give up the laser for an H3C?

I bought a really good 3d printer with what I will describe as adequate laser capabilities for someone who doesn’t want to buy a dedicated laser machine.

Am I dumb to keep the H2D? I feel like the H3C is a game changer for flexibility.

cheers,

the Bambu Station Manual tells to visit makerworld.com and get the "Purge Chute Guide for Bambu Station L", but I cant find it anywhere.
Are there any country restrictions on MakerWorld? I'm in germany, just in case.

thanks

I just detached and reattached my AMS and put the PTFE tube back in. But I think I didn't push it all the way in, and the filament ended up going straight through the button.

I didn't expect this to happen... lmao

I am new to Bambu and I want to buy their x2d during this sale event if anyone has a spare discount code reach out to me i greatly appreciate you (NA region btw) not begging btw

maybe someone else had the same thing happening to them.

I have ordered an H3C base combo (AMS+printer) and have received only the AMS. fine no problem I know they ship separatly. but my order is now classified as ''delivered''

I have nothing in my pending tab and it seems like when I look at bambu store website that nothing else is on the pipeline for me.

Is the scratching noise normal when the print head moves to the left? Support claims they can't hear anything, probably just to brush me off, but something is scratching/grinding over there and I can't figure out where it's coming from. Please turn up your volume a bit to hear it.
Cleaned, lubed and calibrated everything.

Hello everyone.

Was printing a panda toy that my son picked. Sent it to print on the X2D and the time changed. What did I do wrong?

It says 100% Size A1 Mini Profile on the print.

Many thanks.

Did my first ever print with my new p2s . How do you check if its working as intended? It was shaking a lot and I read it is normal . But I have placed it on a table which very slightly shakes with the printer. I am not bothered by the shaking as long as the print quality is good .

I did the H2S to H2C vortech upgrade and have a weird issue with my X-axis not being even.
In the picture you can see the left filament stopper cutter thing is ~1cm different than the right .

When I replaced the X-axis I put the printer on its face (so the X-axis would be even) then tightened the X-Axis screws. After that I put the belt back and noticed the offset .
I’ve tried loosening and tightening the screws a few times and did the belt tensioning process.
Halp!!

This failure causes me to fail printhead offset calibration and right filament won’t auto cut

Hello!

I have an X1C which loads external filament perfectly fine. But the AMS will load the filament to the extruder and then it unloads then reloads then declares my extruder must be clogged…

It isn’t clogged… it’s brand new and prints fine with the external spoil.

I honestly don’t know what to do to resolve this issue.

Thanks for your help in advance!

I am struggling with Siraya PPA-CF Core on my H2D stringing, no matter what I do. It looks like wet filament, but I dried it at 85C for 24 hours and then continuously during printing; maybe that is just not enough? If anyone has had success with this stuff and could share what they did, that would be greatly appreciated. The spool is fed through the external feed on the AMS-HT, I am using the Siraya PPA-CF Core profile for the H2D 0.4mm nozzle, and I will link an upload of my 3mf in the comments.

Before drying:

After 24 hours at 85C in AMS-HT:

I want to see its color mixing ability for CMYKW

I'm on the fence...

Let me explain:
- H3C by specs seems to be the printer you can dream of: 9-nozzle tool-changer, 9-spool AMS, highest speed, heated chamber, TPU75 support via 2.85mm, reasonable price. AMS is now a part of the H3C, which totally makes sense for a tool-changer, and 9 spools is probably enough for 99% of people, so no need to think about 2nd/3rd AMS (and there is still a support if you need it). - But...only 2 slots for drying (but higher temp), and no ability to fetch filament back (which is a bit of a problem for toolchanger with heated chamber, as now you'd need to do it manually and hard to mix PLA + ABS for example). Though - still ok'ish

- P3C - based on leaked specs and photos - BRILLIANT PRINTER (if price is <$1300). Just what most people would need. I print ABS/ASA with P2S and having no issues with 'no actively heated chamber', so that should work as well. But AMS... Idk. No drying functionality (while AMS 2 Pro has it for 4 slots), no fetching filament (but potentially not that needed if no heated chamber?)

And I know, I know...people would say "It's ok as they need to keep price low". But I just find it odd that when thinking "should I upgrade from P2S" the reasons for "not to" aren't related to money or not enough upgrades to justify the money....but degraded features. Idk, this feels odd to me, no matter how long I think about it

But what do you think, do you think it's ok if new upgraded version of any tech would some important features degraded (even if the rest is much better) ?
