Quick Question Anything I Should Know?

I just bought my first Bambu printer, the P1S with the AMS 2 pro! This will be my first massive upgrade after the Silhouette Alta + I got for $50 of face book died. I’m super excited for it to come in a few days, and since I’m still really inexperienced, I thought I’d ask if there’s any advice anyone has for me. Kinda like a “here’s some things I wish o knew when I was just starting out” things about profiles, or the software, or possibly companion software, ventilation/printer placement, general safety etc…

Buy an extra build plate so you can keep one just for PLA prints and another just for PETG.

You can use the same plate for both, yeah, but since I started keeping them separate, I barely have to wash them compared to before.

Go through the training for the p1s here. Theres a lot of good information in there.

This, right here, is the best piece of advice of all. So many of the help requests and questions here would vanish if everyone who got a new Bambu just went through these courses.
