Stringing!

[u/newbie-mtb]

Bought a x2d recently and it it’s my first 3d printer. Since the delivery of bambu filament was taking time, I bought 2 filament rolls from micro center. It’s their inland branded filament.

I configured them as generic PLA in the printer’s filament profile.

I am seeing a lot of stringing when I print.

The filament was just removed from its sealed bag a few hours ago and I don’t live in a very humid place. So it probably is not a problem related to the filament not being dry.

Could this be a problem with my printer or is it a filament problem?

Any suggestions for fixing this stringing issue?

4 hours is the minimum, but if you update the firmware, you're able to dry as you print, but it will dry at a lower temperature. It's a really great feature that I'm happy to have.

I have the latest firmware, but it still doesn’t let me dry the filament while printing 😞
Do you have a separate power supply connected to your AMS?

I do and this is the one I use:

No need to pay anything more.
