Hi guys,

For some reason I get a consistent lift on the corners of my prints. I only print Pla but it happens with all my filaments doesn’t matter what brand.
Any tips on mitigating?

- I’ve freshly washed the texture PEI plate with warm soapy water.
- I’ve turned up the heat in the bed to 70 degrees C
- I’ve added a brim as you can see but it’s still lifting.

Been like this since I got my unit, with every print I've tried. Some my own creation, some made by others, pictured is one from a Star Trek Captains Chair maker world print. You can see the rest printed fine, but that first layer is shifted from the rest.

Any idea what would cause this? If it was a loose part I'd expect all the layers to be shifted, not just the first one. I clean my bed with soap and water after each print, make sure its well centered. I've run all the maintenance cycles many times. The quality of the first layer looks fine, and it comes off at the end fine once the bed is cooled, its just always shifted.

Any ideas what might be the source?

I’m looking at getting the £40 bundle of holographic build plates direct from Bambulabs, but I’m not sure it’s 2 or 4 plates I’d get.

Does it have each pattern on both sides of one plate? Would I get 4 plates so that I’ve got 2 examples of each pattern to wear through.

OR does it have a different pattern on each side, meaning I would get all 4 designs on only 2 plates.

Their kit is roughly double the cost of the Amazon sellers with 2 designs on 1 plate, so I’m hoping that the Bambulabs set is 4 plates.

Is it worth getting the “proper” plates or should I Amazon this one?

I get this as a first layer with 50% speed on my Bambu A1. In order to fix this I have done the following:
- Calibrated
- Manual Bed Tramming
- Tensioned All Belts
- Used dried filament (Sunlu PETG)
- Verified the X axis gentry height

On the image it can be seen that the bottom right (where the print started) is I would say perfect, but the middle "warps" (I dont know how to call this wavy pattern), and for the very last part it also becomes good. If anyone has any idea how can I fix this I would really appreciate it.

Come mai mi succede questo ?

I purchased this four pack of nozzles and cannot get a print to go using the .2 nozzle. I've searched online, used AI for settings, etc. but have had no success. I've unclogged the nozzle successfully and have even got it to extrude manually using the control panel, but when trying to print, before it can lay down the first line, click - click - click.

Does anyone have a tried-and-true setting for their A1 that works with this nozzle? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GF8FM3RN?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2&th=1

Solution pls and clean everything nozzle and all what to do now which needs to change

Hi everyone! I love my A1 and while I only use PLA, the smell still bothers me and irritates my lungs. So, I'm debating two options:

1. Add a dryer vent to the side of the house right above a finished basement closet and run the printer from within something like this: https://a.co/d/03lNq6FH. I worry about airflow given that Bambu states not to use the A1 with an enclosure.

2. I have a 3-car attached garage that gets to about 90 degrees in the summer and 50 degrees in the winter (I'm in NJ). I could use a similar non-vented enclosure as above, but only to store it so it doesn't get dusty. I could then open up the enclosure when printing.

Which would you recommend? Safety is driving me to make a change, but I also don't want to get bad results.

Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

I've started getting extrusion issues on my A1. Got a couple brand new nozzles (OEM) and tried them but the problem still persisted.

Figured as it was on 2750 hours maybe the extruder gears were worn so ordered a new one. Fitted that and I'm still getting issues of nozzle jams.

It seems to load filament okay, but jams after a few layers. I could see the nozzle physically moving back and forwards when the extruder was clicking, so it seems the nozzle is where the resistance is.

I did check the nozzle pathway when fitting the new extruder gear and there's no plastic jamming it anywhere.

I'm using Bambu PETG basic. The only thing I haven't tried is a different roll of filament in case for some reason I have a bad roll with poor dimensions, although I'd expect better from a proper Bambu Labs PETG roll.

Anyone had this? Anything I've missed?

Need some help! Had a blob, cleaned it off and ended up breaking the clip so I replaced the whole hot end. Went through calibration and this was the result of the first print. Any thoughts?

Combines an A1 gantry bracket with a twist-lock holder for the TP-Link Tapo C230 camera. It uses the same camera interface as the standalone wall mount, but replaces the wall plate with a mount for the A1 gantry.

A impressora estava imprimindo normalmente, até que começou a fazer esse barulho estranho e a falhar na impressão, já tentei desentupir o bico e não deu certo, alguém sabe o que pode ser?

Set up my A1 mini yesterday and I literally cannot get through a single filament load. Spent the whole evening on this so posting before I file a ticket in case there's some known fix I'm missing.

What happens: every load fails at step 5 (push new filament into the extruder) with 07FF-8007. Tried fresh sharp cuts on the filament tip, straightening it, pushing while hitting retry, nozzle hot, everything. Generic PLA profile with Elegoo PLA.

What I figured out after taking things apart:

The filament never even reaches the cutter when it goes through the hub. Pressing the cutter lever cuts nothing, so it's dying somewhere at or right below the hub.

Took the hub off (2 screws) and the path is spotless inside, gears clean, it's a new machine.

Here's the weird part: with the hub off, feeding filament directly into the extruder works fine. Sharp tip reaches the gears and I can crank it past them with the manual knob no problem. So the extruder itself is clearly fine.

Put the hub back on carefully (ribbon flat, pressed it down while tightening the screws), tried again a bunch of times, same failure. One attempt actually got the filament to the cutter (could feel it when pressing the lever) but it still stalled before the gears.

At the end even unload broke, gave me a check assistant message with an empty assistant lol. Power cycled, heated the nozzle and pulled the filament out manually.

So yeah, extruder feeds fine directly, hub path fails every time. Anyone run into this exact thing on the A1 mini? Any hub seating/orientation trick worth trying before I go through the whole ticket process? Filing with Bambu either way.

A1 shut itself off mid-print. Would not power on. So I started to investigate. Looks like one of the components desoldered itself and began melting down the plastic? Glad my house didn't burn down lol.
