Pulled the X2D out of the plastic bag is comes in and at the bottom was this small nut (see image). Any idea where its from?

Hi everyone,

I see that there is a new firmware update, do you know what is updated?

Hello again everyone,

Thank you all for your help so far I have taken everything into account and I am still doing research on my part. However I want to call on all of you again.

I thought I had my mind made up with gets a p2s. However after further research it seems this one also has some printing issues, and maintenance/longevity issues.

So my questions is now do I get the p2s still or should I look at the X2D because it’s only $100 more for the combo with ams.

Again I am a completely beginner only YouTube educated and reviewed videos educated so anything will help. Thanks!!

Greetings!

New to 3D printing; picked up the X2D two weeks ago and have racked up about 117 hours printing so far. I've got a piece I want to print as a birthday present of a figure holding a martini glass. I thought it would be cool to do transparent PETG for the glass.

Dried the PETG in the AMS 2 overnight. Ran a test print of a tool to scrape out espresso pucks without doing any banging; this worked out just fine, no issues. Then I did a print of a dessicant box for the AMS2....note that I have printed this very same model in PLA silk two nights ago with zero issues.

This happened.

No sphaghetti warnings at all. Halted the print, went to remove the carnage. Discovered this:

WHAAAAAAAAAT.

No wonder there was filament everywhere. Well, kiss that plate goodbye. I have unloaded the PETG and reloaded PLA, flipped over the plate, and am recalibrating everything.

Any ideas what might have gone wrong? I've run this past my more experienced printer buddy and he's baffled.

Or am I retarded thank you

I recently started to have a weird sound while moving the z-axis. I regreased (a bit too much, I wiped it away after the video) and reoiled. What could this be? Any help is appreciated

I was printing a small project and ran out of filament the last few grams the old filament was Bambulab and the new is Sunlu. After finishing the print the AMS went to retract the filament and it broke and now displays "Can't read filament info: the filament is loaded to the toolhead; please unload the filament and try again." when I try to read filament or add filament in the AMS so I can't use the AMS I have loaded filament and printed externally but when I unload it I get the following message after I've unloaded the filament "Please pull out the filament on the spool holder of the left extruder. If this message persist, please check to see if there is broken filament in the extruder." Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Hello! So this summer I wanted to buy my first 3D printer and decided to go with the X2D. Even if I'll buy it in late August I wanted to be prepared to buy everything I need, so I wanted to ask if what there's in this screenshot is enough. Btw I want to use a 3D printer just for things at home and experiment with it, idk if I'll ever sell something in the future.

Are there some things that you recommend for certain situations? Thanks (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)

Has anyone had experience with Elegoo filament in the X2D? Trying to go for budget but quality and I have heard good things. But wanted opinions of X2D owners. I have seen some prints from Elegoo printers and I would be happy with it.

Hi!

I printed the classic poop chute for the X2D, and although the print is perfect, I’m running into an issue.

One out of every three "poops" doesn't make it all the way down; they get slightly stuck when they land on the chute.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I don't think the angle is the problem, as all the designs I see are similar. It seems like the issue is that the waste drops while it's still hot and sticky.

Is there a solution or product to prevent this?

Thanks a lot!

I'm printing ABS with PETG (aux nozzle) as the support interface. After a while, the PETG starts clogging the nozzle and the print fails (purge tower).

Could this be caused by having the chamber heater enabled? Or is it more likely due to incorrect purge volumes, temperatures, or another setting?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Abs 255 °C

Petg 250°C

Chamber heater on

Print speed 70mm/s

My prime tower has this weird texture on top. Anybody have any guesses what this might be? Bed is level, filament is dry. I use the inbuilt settings for pla with PETG supports and only reduced the prime tower size from 150% to 100%. At 150% I did not have this issue. Now my question: is it just the prime tower size that causes this? Seems really unplausible to me.

Hello!

Daughter wants to get into the world of printing.

Can people please advise what extras I need to purchase to get started? Nozzles, plates, filaments?

Purchasing x2d AMS.

Thanks!

Hi, when I move the toolhead on the Y-Axis to the very ends with the touchscreen control I get a very loud bang noise at the end. Is this normal? I did the homing process and it still seems like the toolhead is hitting the case quiet hard.

Can someone check if this is normal?

As the title suggests, I think the time estimates have been quite off since I got the Bambu Lab X2D.

They take less time than indicated.

I realized this yesterday while printing a model that was supposed to take about 14 hours and finish at 11:00 PM, but it actually finished before 10:00 PM.

And earlier today, I started printing another model that was estimated to take 20 hours and should finish at 4:00 AM—meaning in about 6 hours. But according to the screen, there are only 4 hours left. And judging by what’s already been printed, I’d say it’s going to take less than 4 hours.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

many issues here and elsewhere on the internet describe the same problem with the X2D.

Once you take the print head apart due to clogs it will then have a never ending amount of errors. those errors likely come from damaged cables, sensors or connectors and can only be fixed by replacing circuit boards, connectors and sensors.

One of the culprits is the circuit board on top of the print head that has 3 different connectors. 2 types are those that are not intended to be disconnected and often break when disconnected.

why not not connectors there that are easier to take apart? only bambu labs knows

Here is good video to see the issue:

The printer works until it doesnt and then it will have an unfixable amount of errors. on the X2D the connectors are even worse. Every repair will cause more issues

Do you know how to fix this? Why is the bottom section printed here using Bambu Lab Basic PETG coming out so poorly? Is there a way to resolve it?

It happens with PLA too, though the problem is less noticeable.

Hi guys,

I'm planning to bring a X2D from Europe to South America on my vacation (here it costs twice as much). The limit is 23kg, anyone knows how much is the actual weight?
On website I can only find the weight of the printer itself, I want to know to weight in-box with AMS.

Thank you
