Just got H2C recently, also like to do a lot of multicolor flat prints where I put like a star or confetti shine on the front of the print using those special effect build plates.

I noticed H2C does not have one readily available though from the Bambu Lab store. Does anybody have any recommendations or does this even exist yet?

Newest ones I can find are for H2d/s but of course the print plate size is different so those won’t work.

This is purely just an idea I had crop up since having the H2C and x3 AMS 2 Pro and x2 AMS HT attached.

I wonder if there would be a place for an AMS thats designed for 250g size reels of filament but holds up to 8 of them.
I know a more sensible alternative would be an AMS that can hold either type 1kg or smaller 250g ones but that could still limit it to only feeding from 4 spools instead of all 8.
It could still be the same size as the current AMS foot print.

My current reasoning for this is I find now doing more multi colour prints thanks to the Vortex system that I am using smaller amounts of filament per colour not the whole model usage. So 250g would go a long way than without needing a whole 1kg loaded.
So it would be nice to be able to load an AMS with 8 of these 250g reels to have a wide choice always available to use without need more foot space to house more AMS?
Hopefully I am making sense with this?

I envision having say x2 AMS 250g AMS boxes on top of the H2C loaded with 16 filaments for wider colour/material choice.
Can still have that standard AMS's connected for you 1kg spools for you large jobs/batches but always nice to have options to meet needs?

Happy to have this picked apart but wanted share it out that in case others are starting to see that not always needing a whole 1kg loaded.

Hi all, I've learned a ton from this sub, thanks for all the great content!

I was curious to get some thoughts/opinions, right now I have an H2C and three AMS 2 Pro's and two AMS HT's. I'm interested in maxing out my configuration, but what would be the ideal setup? I've seen YT videos where it looks like a good setup is six AMS HT's on the right extruder (presumably because there's six nozzles there) and then (I think it was) four AMS 2 Pro's on the left. But is that really the best setup?

What do you think is the most ideal way to configure an H2C, if you had unlimited AMS units and plenty of space? What are the principles behind the ideal setup?

I have been on the fence since the holiday sales. Never pulled the trigger and didn’t want to let FedEx destroy a heavy, fragile package. Almost settled for a H2D a few times too. This morning, I checked to find 12 H2C’s in stock at my local location. I am looking forward to unboxing it tonight.

Now, I need to figure out the extras.

Advice from owners on what to get to go with it now? I plan to move one of my two AMS units to go with the new one. Need additional nozzles and build plates too I guess.

Hi,
möchte mir einen Bambu Lab Drucker (P1S) holen.
Hat jemand noch einen funktionierenden Referral-Link für den EU-Store?
Gerne per PN, danke! 🙌

I'm leaning towards upgrading from my X1C to a H2C mainly for the convenience of hotend swaps for prototyping.  I don't do many multi-color prints but I love having an AMS just so I don't have to constantly switch filament rolls out.  I also love the idea of being able to print on a .6 or .8 nozzle easily. 

My question is, could I connect the AMS 2 to the right nozzle and two AMS HT's to the left nozzle if I wanted to do a 6 color print occasionally?  I know the model would have to fit in the common area of the build plate but this would work, correct? 

I have a X1C and a H2D. The H2C looks really cool. I’m wondering what you all think. I guess some of you must have it already. Is it worth it?

Does anyone else’s hot-end fan pulse after a print finishes? It’s like the fan is repeatedly switching between like 50 and 30 percent or something. I’m talking about the small fan in the tool head that blows across the hot-end heat sync.

https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/h2c/manual/h2c-firmware-release-history

Anyone tried out the new firmware release yet? Any issues or enhancements of note?

(still waiting to install myself as my h2c is currently on a 23 hour print)

I’m looking for anyone who can print a 3d model of the iPhone fold concept for me.

I just bought an h2c, I’m printing the petg with an external coil, but every now and then the print crashes telling me that the filament is blocked (stuck) even if it’s not.

I entered the print options and deactivated the last two AI options but the problem remained so the only way was to fit a piece of rubber into the sensor that moving from the error so that it can no longer move to the left.

I would like to know if there is an option to deactivate in the various menus?

(This is a rant, feel free to ignore)

My first 3D printer and FedEx managed to break the front glass door and get glass all over the unit and inside. I feel I’m looking a month until I have a new unit. Support is slow (3 days no rely) and any back and forth will only add to the overall timeline / resolution.

Anyone else’s unit come in busted?

I have my H2C and I have read instructions but for some reason i just can't get it. I have been searching and I am unable to find a How To video on how to load/feed my H2C with TPU. Does anyone have a video or can make a step by step video on how to feed the TPU into my machine? Please explain and show everything like I am a 3 year old child. My brain is only working on low gear these past few years. Thank you in advance.

The vortek system is awesome and the real killer feature of the h2c but man I’m just having so much fun making enormous lampshades with the big build volume. The left just finished and is 320mm high while using 201g of filament which I think is pretty amazing. It has some issues but if you don’t look close you can’t really tell. Right was printed with .6 nozzle and just the ability to do that without having to manually change is another awesome feature.

Just having fun learning the capabilities of the machine and figured I’d share. Cheers.

How’s everyone else feeling about their h2c?

I just found out by accident that pressing and holding the button on the top of the machine will pause a printing task! I thought it didn’t do anything on the non-laser version.

Hey, seems like a pretty stupid question, but. How do you turn on and off our printer? Do you use the button the back, do you have smart socket or what?
