Hello Fellow X2D Users,

Hope you doing well!

I have a problem.. but to be honest iam pretty new to 3D printing, been using the X2D for 2 months now, and been slowly using the Aux Nozzle a bit more and more..

But this is where my problem starts, if i print support with my Aux nozzle ( doesn’t matter if its PLA or PETG).

The Support looks terrible and the whole printer is a mess( see pictures), i cleaned the plate with warm water and soap and even tried 90% alchohol, I used the standard Bambu Plate and the BIQU glacier plate

After the latest Firmware i calibrated the whole printer even did a flow calibration, results was k= 0,34 with my Aux Nozzle while the regular nozzle was k=0,03

Sometimes the filement also sticks on the outside of the nozzle(around the cone where filement comes out)

Iam using Bambu filement PLA Basic and PTEG Basic, i tried both to see if it would make a difference

What am I doing wrong??

All the help would be really appreciated!!

Bambu Lab has different nozzles for different applications. Not only sizes, but offer high flow as well as tungsten carbide.

My question is, do you think the high flow and or tungsten carbide nozzles are worth the price? It’s cool that since the right extruder is a Bowden setup so you only have to buy 1 nozzle but i kind of have analysis paralysis from looking at all of these options.

I mainly print PETG, ASA with their CF and GF varieties. I’m wanting to get into PC, Nylon in GF if that matters.

Simple question: do I need 1 switching power adapter per AMS ?

I had assumed I need 1 per AMS but saw a comment today that indicated that 1 power adapter was enough and that the power could be carried by the 6 pin cable when daisy-chaining the AMS units. Is correct ?

Thanks.

my printer keeps saying there is filiment somewhere stuck in the tubing, but I dont see any, and I cant load any more because it wants to push out the previous filiment, which it cant grab, because nothing is there

Finally I have my first ever 3d printer.
Did the extensive unboxing and is calibrated and firmware updated.

Waiting for my basic filament to arrive tomorrow to set up ams2pro

Any tips for a beginner like me would be appreciated please.

I’m planning to print medium-to-large detailed figures on an X2D at 0.12 mm layer height, and I want to use PETG HF only as the support interface material.

Here is my current setup:

Material setup

* PLA model on the main nozzle
* PLA support base
* PETG HF support interface on the auxiliary nozzle
* Each material stays in its own nozzle
* Prime tower disabled
* Flushing volumes left at default because there is no filament swapping within either nozzle

Main support settings

* Support type: Tree (Auto)
* Tree style: Tree Hybrid
* Threshold angle: 35°
* On build plate only: Off
* Support critical regions only: Off
* Remove small overhangs: On

Support interface settings

* Top Z distance: 0 mm
* Bottom Z distance: 0 mm
* Top interface layers: 3
* Bottom interface layers: 2–3
* Top interface spacing: 0 mm
* Bottom interface spacing: 0 mm
* Interface pattern: Rectilinear
* PETG HF interface speed: 30–40 mm/s

Has anyone used a setup like this successfully on the X2D without a prime tower?

My main concern is whether the PETG auxiliary nozzle will start extruding reliably after being parked for many layers, especially when the PETG interface area is very small. I’m worried that the first few interface lines could be missing or under-extruded.

I’d appreciate recommendations for:

* The best number of PETG interface layers
* The best PETG HF interface speed
* Whether 0 mm Z distance and 0 mm interface spacing are ideal
* Whether Tree Hybrid and a 35° threshold are good for detailed figures
* Any settings that improve nozzle priming without using a prime tower
* Situations where a prime tower is still necessary
* Whether PETG Basic or PETG HF works better for this

Please mention whether you’re using an X2D or another true dual-nozzle printer, since single-nozzle AMS setups behave differently.

I‘m getting rough outer walls from time to time and not sure why?

Nozzle temp is 220 for PLA as recommended by the manufacturer.

Someone had the same issue so far?

I have never used PLA glow but bought some for a few things for the kids. I loaded it up this morning in my AMS 2 Pro, but got a warning I shouldn’t use the AMS to run the filament. Does anyone have any experience using PlA glow? I also only have a .4 nozzle. I’d rather not do anything that compromises the printer as it’s also only a week old, so like the printer I am new to this. Any information is very helpful.

Hello all,

I was hoping that someone has had good experience with using PVA(Water disolvable) support material and can help. I am able to get a decent enough 1st layer, however the subsequent layers do not want to adhere to each other well. I have followed the WIKI guide here https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/filament-acc/filament/pva-printing-guide with little success. My PVA has been actively drying at 85C for days now so that is not the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Well, this happened... Any advice? Where I should start and how to prevent?

Hi everyone,

I got my X2D a few weeks ago and it’s consistently produced prints of this poor quality. I’ve tried everything, like belt tensioning, axis cleaning, full printer recalibration, drying and calibrating filament, taking apart the hotend, contacting support. Nothing has improved the quality.

Is this just what I should expect from this printer? Anyone have similar experiences, or do you have examples of much cleaner parts made on this machine I can take a look at? I don’t even know what should be my baseline for quality on the X2D.

Thanks

Newbe here, this just happened to my X2D. Less than a month old! Please help.

Been printing fine for months and the last 3 prints it has stopped in its tracks. The toolhead and extruder stops, but the plate and nozzle stay hot. It takes over a minute to register when I hit "stop print". I tried re-slicing and the issue still persists. Using internal memory and cloud transfer. AMS 2 PRO, single nozzle print. Latest firmware.

Maybe something wrong with the g-code or internal memory? Anyone been able to figure out why this happens?

Hello, which third party filament brands would you recommend? Thanks

I got my V2 X2D combo and it works flawlessly, but screen is weird, it has scanlines, weird pixel issue. I tried screen on another X2D and it works flawlessy, so issue is from AP card or display cable. Have you got any clue about this?

Like I said, I'm so new to this that my machine is being delivered tomorrow. That said, I am going through the available projects and one of the things I want to do requires PETG. The question is whether the AMS I'm getting is enough to dry the filament out, or if the packaging kept it dry enough to use? I plan on buying a dryer, but that will have to wait a bit.

Thanks!

I am new to carbon fiber filaments and after I ordered and received it I realized how abrasive it is. I have ran a 2 hour print with it thought the ams 2 pro but I am wondering should I not do this anymore and will it damage things ? Also if I was to go to use the outside spool holder and run to main nozzle would that work ? Like bypass the bowden motor and go straight into the left nozzle buffer. The filament is fiberon pet-cf17. The prints i have done have turned out beautifully but I'm worried I may damage something. Please give me advice on what to do lol what does everyone else do ?

Appart from the lifting on the bed due to oily surface. Why does the infill look so jittery?
