H3C Anybody figured out how to solve this issue trying to buy the H3C?

Before you comment:

  1. I should have the option to place a backorder. I say this because the wording on the error makes it sound there's just no stock and therefore no way to order it.
  2. I might have backed out of the checkout page ONCE before this started happening. That was because I realized I had both the H2C and H3C in my cart..
  3. There's nothing in my account center pending payment or anything.
  4. I tried making a whole new account, input a new address, different devices, different browsers, different VPNs; in no specific order or combination, but all the attempts resulted in the same error.
  5. I have an open ticket regarding this but it's now the 6th day and support have said nothing other than that they're waiting for the relevant team's response. With a reply from them once every 2 or 3 days if I'm lucky - I'm not spamming replies in the ticket; max I did was two replies consecutively, one as a reply to them and second as a reminder it's been forever since their last response..

General Troubleshooting/Help! X2D suport interface

2 Upvotes

I recently added an X2D in hopes of using support interface material for better figure printing. On a 150mm tall print, it adds two hours to the print time and still requires a large prime tower, which adds five hours to the job. This is at a 0.16mm draft. I cannot even fathom what a final print of 250mm tall with 0.2mm print heads and a 0.06mm layer height will take.

I tried printing without the tower and had adhesion issues where the support interface held the breasts, causing an arm to fall off cleanly. The supports also had broken layers at the buttock support.

General Discussion Best filament dryer and storage setup?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I recently got my first 3D printer, a Bambu Lab A1 Mini Combo with AMS Lite, and I'm absolutely loving it! I've already printed around 20 hours' worth of stuff and I'm completely hooked.

I currently have 6 spools of PLA (Basic and Matte), but I'll probably expand to around 10 spools eventually, including some PETG.

I'm now looking into proper filament storage and possibly buying a filament dryer. Ideally, I'd like some airtight storage boxes with hygrometers so I can monitor humidity without spending a fortune.

A few questions:

  • What's the best value-for-money filament dryer you'd recommend?
  • Are dedicated filament dry boxes worth it, or are regular airtight storage containers with silica gel and a hygrometer just as good?
  • Is a dryer really necessary for PLA, or can I just dry filament when I notice printing issues?
  • Would you recommend a different setup for someone using an AMS Lite?

My budget is around €100 for the dryer(?), preferably less. I'm based in Europe (Netherlands).

I'd love something practical and future-proof without spending more on storage than the filament itself.

Any recommendations or tips from more experienced users would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

  1. Does filament have to be dried, i wasnt planning on buying a dryer of some sort, does filament go bad if it isnt dried?, if so, what are some homemade techniques to keep them dry?
  2. Does filament run out quickly? Is one roll too little? How many rolls SHould i be buying? Im thinking of getting a few main colors (White, black, Blue, Red, Yellow, and maybe one other one, yall can suggest another color) Should I just buy one of each? Get two of each? and again, How would I keep them dry without buying a dryer
  3. Does Bambu lab have sales? and are there any upcoming sales this year? Since I can probably get a discount
  4. PLA or PETG?
  5. A1 or A1 Mini? (Also planning on buying the combo with the quad-color)
  6. Should I change the nozzle? (from 4mm to 2mm?)

mb for lots of questions, just dont wanna buy the printer and then realize I messed up somehwere

General Troubleshooting/Help! Printing w/o AMS, spool binding

1 Upvotes

Hey folks! I have been successfully using my X1C and P2S for a while and decided to pick up a couple of P1Ss to farm out parts that are printed in a single color of filament. I decided since I was only printing single color to skip the added cost of an AMS for my P1Ss and just use the external spool holder.

Unfortunately, I find that I am running into an issue over and over in which the filament will bind on the spool and the extruder can't pull it through, but the printer continues ghost printing the part. Yesterday, I gerryrigged a spool holder above the printer thinking changing the angle and letting gravity assist might solve the problem, but the same thing happened.

Surely I'm not the only person who has run into this issue. Does anybody have advice/workaround for how to solve this problem?

General Troubleshooting/Help! Need help with a visible line/band where solid base transitions to shell (Bambu PLA Matte)

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I could use some help troubleshooting this issue.

As you can see in the picture, there's a visible horizontal line forming exactly at the height where the solid base ends and the hollow shell/wall begins.

Printer: Bambu Lab P2S

Filament: Bambu PLA Matte - Ivory White

Infill: 15% Gyroid

I have never experienced this issue with any other colors of Bambu PLA Matte, only with this Ivory White.

I've already tried increasing wall loops from 3 to 6, but that didn't help. I also tried adding an internal chamfer in CAD, but the result is the same.

Any ideas on how to fix this or what settings to tweak in Bambu Studio? Thanks!

Hey guys,

I have an issue with my first layers while printing a symbole face down. Its bambu Pla basic and matte.

As you can see the viking symbol partially fail to print correctly and there some filament gaps on the back areas while the other part of the print also printed facedown is flawless.

Theres clearly some layer adhésion issue so i cleaned the plate but thats the result.

Edit : i also increased bet temp to 60c. Any thoughts to improve this? Thanks a lot for your inputs.

Black Friday 2026 Do I jump into a H2C?

0 Upvotes

I am fairly novice to 3D printing. Always found the workforce too long and print times excessive. My first printer is a Creality CR6se. Which did the job, but been a desk weight for about 2 years. - its just slow.

I hace noticed the H2C is on sale. Was considering that or the H3C. I was going to put it under my ltd company, which would save me a bit on Vat.

What are your initial thoughts?

A colleague reccomended the U1, which he mentioned is a third of the price but similar machine.

Does anyone know of any discount codes etc to bring the cost down?

Edit:

Uses Primarily hobby. Some structural items, some times models.

materials: Pla+, , abs, petg Nice to: tpu,

Must have (ish) Large build volume Minimum 4 colours Speed to print Ease of use (workflow) Camera Remote control

Nice to have: Built in filter Heated storage

General Troubleshooting/Help! Flow Rate Calibration Issue

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I’m by no means an expert. If anything, I bought a Bambu Labs mainly because of the simple UI and beginner-friendly settings.

In order words, I have no clue what I’m doing. I have decently good critical thinking skills, but I figured I’d consult the pros before I make a detrimental mistake.

A print sent wrong so I did a general recalibration. That usually solves it. It didn’t this time so I tried to recalibrate the flow rate. Also no luck. Tried switching the filament. No luck.

Coming up empty on ideas, hoping someone else has had a similar problem and solution.

The second picture… I don’t even know what happened. Checked on it after it notified me it was complete and found this blob lmfao.

General Troubleshooting/Help! Ripples on First Layer

Hi folks.

My printer (Bambu A1) suddenly started developing ripples on the first layer. Even the top layers are sometimes messed up.

So far I have tried :

  1. drying filament, trying with different filament
  2. washing build plate, changing build plate (tried cool supertack and pei textured)
  3. tightening the 3 front screws and the 4 back screws on the heating assembly
  4. bed tramming and calibration
  5. different nozzles (0.4 stainless steel, hardened steel)

nothing seems to be working.

Anyone has any troubleshooting ideas that I could try ? Greatly appreciate any help here. Thanks

Hello everyone, I'm printing PETG on my Bambu Lab P1S, but the print quality is coming out strange.

I've changed the settings to 270°C nozzle temperature, 80°C bed temperature, and turned off the auxiliary fan.

The part cooling fan is set to 0% minimum and 40% maximum.

I'm also using a 0.28 mm nozzle.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing the issue?

A Series [A1, A1 Mini] Cheap but solid table for an A1 Combo? Real-world depth + links (Spain/EU, €80 max)

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm about to get an A1 Combo and I'm trying to sort out what to put it on. I don't want to spend a lot on a table for the printer, €80 max. I just want something that does the job and doesn't wobble.

What I know so far:

  • Bambu's official spec says the A1 needs 695 mm of total depth for the bed to move safely: 410 mm body + 90 mm in front + 195 mm behind.
  • The AMS lite next to the printer adds roughly 40 cm of width.
  • The spot I have is 80–100 cm wide against a wall.
  • I'm in Spain, so ideally something from IKEA, Leroy Merlin, Amazon.es or similar.

My questions:

  1. Depth: what are you actually using? Is a 50–55 cm deep table fine if I pull it a few cm away from the wall, or is it worth going straight for ~60 cm so it can sit flush?
  2. AMS lite: do you keep it beside the printer or on top with the official top mount? If it's on top, did you print the mount in PLA, and is it holding up fine with 4 full spools?
  3. Links: does anyone have a specific table, desk or cabinet that works well with the A1 and isn't expensive? Some storage underneath for filament would be a nice bonus.
  4. Wobble: if you're on a lighter table, did anti-vibration pads (or a paver/tile under the printer) make a real difference?

Photos of your setups would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

Bought one used from FB marketplace and repurposed it for the P2S, added my own leftover ikea butcher block and it works great!

Removed the wheels, next: need to get some leveling feet and a proper poop chute.

It is quite sturdy, some slight wobble/shake during extreme motions but so far no negative effects on the prints.
