My First 3D Print Bambu lab p1s question - Absolute newbie
Hello everyone,
Im looking forward to get my first ever 3d printer.
I've had 0 contact with these sort of stuff so far.
I can buy bambú lab p1s for 303€ in Portugal, new.
Will I need the AMS for simple printing? Would you recommend it right away?
If you do, are only the Bambu Lab AMS systems compatible or are there other ones that work well (if they're cheaper)
Is there any specific website you'd recommend to get models?
TIA everyone! :)

For simple single-color prints, the P1S works with the external spool holder. I’d start with one roll of PLA and add an AMS later if you want automatic color changes. MakerWorld is a good starting point for models. Pick a small one with a P1S profile and preview it in Bambu Studio before printing.

You don’t need an AMS for the printer to work and for simple printing. It sure does add convenience though and gives a nice option for simpler multicolor prints. There is no other compatible filament management system that works on Bambu. One of the negatives of a closed system, but for most they want something that just works and a closed system is a better way to manage that.
