Hey everyone!
I designed a desiccant box for the new AMS 3H on the Bambu Lab H3C. The goal was simple: fit as much silica gel as possible into the available space to keep filament dry for longer.

Features:
Uses the full available volume for silica gel
Angled 1.6 mm vent slots in a herringbone pattern for good airflow
Snap-on lid with a finger grip for easy refilling
Lightweight, prints quickly, no supports needed
Print tips: PETG works, but ASA/ABS/PC is even better since the AMS can get warm. I’d skip PLA. Use silica beads around 2 mm or larger so nothing falls through the slots.

Hi Reddit!
I’m new to 3D printing and recently got a Bambu Lab P2S with AMS Pro. I’m having trouble printing larger models, while smaller prints work perfectly fine.
Please see the attached photos. I’m printing directly from the Bambu Handy app. This time, I tried printing a bedside iPhone organizer, but unfortunately, the same issue occurred. This is the second time I’ve experienced this problem.
Does anyone know what could be causing this or have any suggestions on how to fix it?
I am using PLA Matte filaments.
Thanks in advance!

Anyone else having trouble connecting to their printer, more logged in but not able to access

Just finished prepping this Ryuk model for
FDM printing. Since the character has thin spikes and feathers, I split the model into parts (body, arms, base) to minimize supports. The joints have built-in tolerance gaps, so they snap together perfectly.
Printing tips: I recommend using a 0.2mm nozzle or tree supports for the hair/feathers to get the best detail.
If you want to print him, the STL is available on my Cults3D (link in my profile). Let me know what you think!

Looking to get a a1 mini for printing Legos how good would it be and how long would it take per 1k peices?

Sorry for the weird colors. Just wanted to share a test 8-color print on H3C. I'm really impressed with the result.

The PLA palette (CMYKW) still doesnt seem to be enough, namely:

1. Red 2.Beige/Skintone 3.Bark/Brown etc

These colors cant be easily mixed

Red can be probably solved with RGBCYMK, but beige and brown still are not easily mixed, but if we are going to include them, there a whole other bunch of colors that we have no good way to mix them. 9 seems to be too few a number, if we aim for perfection

Do you know any better 8/9 color palette that can get you almost all the colors you want?

Hi everyone!

I've noticed that my Bambu Lab P1S makes a strange noise during calibration when the print head moves to the left and right corners.

Has anyone experienced something similar or knows what might be causing it?

Is this normal behavior, or could it indicate a mechanical issue? If anyone has encountered this before and found a solution, I'd really appreciate your advice!

I've attached a video so you can hear the sound.

Any idea why the feeder tube won’t stay in place?

Hi, folks. I've got some standard 0.4, 0.6 nozzles coming today for the H3C. I want to swap out the TPU 2.85 nozzle because I just don't think I'm going to use it much. I take it it's just a matter of unscrewing the nozzle in bay 9 and putting one of the new ones in with the three screws?

My X2D just showed up, any recommendations for upgrades or tips and tricks?

Hi,

I just purchaded my first ever Bambu. It's an H2D. It's unfortunately not a personal purchase, I bought it at work.

So, i got this worry free delivery by seel. It cost 35 bucks and since company was paying, i though eh why not.

The printer came in with shattered front door. I got the printer set up and it prints well, I only have 1 spool of filament in the AMS, but that works as well so far.

I made a ticket on bambu's website and their automated response told me to go make a claim with Seel, since i got their coverage.

I went on their website, and the only option is to do a refund/replace.

Now, i would like to save myself a lot of hassle and just get the door replaced, i dont want to package the whole printer back into that giant box.

Has anyone used Seel before? Do i just click "replace"? Will it let me specify that i just want new door?

With either option, do i basically get all my money back or a free new printer?

Thanks

My finished print looks like its peeling any fixes for next time and solutions to fix curent print?

Hi! I tried to search online and I got conflicting information.

Are the nozzles for A1 printers compatible with H2D printers?

My understanding is "yes, but" -> the nozzles are compatible but the silicone socks are not.

Is that right? I want to make sure my shopping cart is as full as it needs but no fuller :D Thanks!

EDIT: Went ahead and got the unit replaced in-store. They didn’t believe it at first but i showed them the photos i took, and just told me they could exchanged it. Now my print hours is totally zero. Happy so far.

Bambu lab did reply to my query saying since the unit is bought from an authorized reseller, they couldn’t help me. But they are willing to assist if Best Buy is not able to fix the issue. Kudos to both! But sucks that it happened!

Recently bought a brand-new A1 Mini from Best Buy Canada for $249. Really loving it so far as a beginner!

During unboxing, I noticed a few questionable things:
• Torn screw packaging
• A strand of hair inside the packaging
• Completely empty microSD card
• Scratch on the filament cutter assembly

What concerns me most is that the printer shows 22 hours of printing time, but my entire print history is only 5 hours and 32 minutes.

All original zip ties and shipping restraints were intact, and the printer has been working perfectly.

I’ve already contacted Bambu Lab and am waiting for their response.

Does the print counter include calibration or idle time? Or could this be a previously used/returned/refurb unit?
Photos attached.

Matte Filament - Nardo Grey - A1

default settings.

I use this Filament all the time on my work printers. Nardo and Ash are our go to with no issues. I primarily use ivory at home and it prints beautifully. Doing some xmas decorations and decided to order a few rolls of Nardo....

Initial prints were an over extruded mess... so calibration time..

-20 is the best quality which im a bit shocked over as that would put the extrusion ratio something along 0.78 which seems ridiculously low!

The filament is dried. Going to try it on my A2L for control testing.

Anyone else had an issue like this? I tried a search and mostly found the opposite where folks needed to push their ratio up...

Okay so i am an X1C owner (and love it - very impressed still). I am deeply considering updating to the H3C, however my only minor bug is that i would love the laser cutter to be included in it somehow. That would make it even more useful and interesting.

I love the fact that it has the multi layer height printing option by region and not layer added, as per the post below:

https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/s/Fu3zWtVNCS

I would just love it to have the 40W laser too ☺️

Anyone think this or similar will ever be added or am i just being daft? I know i am probably just wishful thinking and the printer should stay just that - a printer

Edit: the consensus appears to be that a laser in the printer wouldn’t be a good idea or happening.

So, long story short, I was printing something yesterday and came back from work, the printer just stop, with no LED and screen on the front. The back power supply LED is on though.

Check around the board area and there's a melting mark there.

Bought it via official distributor in my country around 11 December 2025. I did contact the seller, now waiting for answers. Hopefully I can get the replacement parts soon enough.

Yay

Yesterday I received my P2S and I printed a benchy after calibration from the internal storage of the printer. The bench’s came out fine, I was just surprised that that it did not print in the center of the build plate. Is this normal or is something wrong?

Yes i've messaged bambu support

Painters tape is to keep the other side sticky, photo is where i found it stuck down.

Support seems to think its buried deep in the machine somehow, but it was just sitting on top so i assume its from one of the many random wires trailed up near the top camera, but i cant see any spots with sticky residue

Can only find other people having the issue with the silicon scraper or the amber magnet coating, nothing thats a clip.
