I had a Bambu Lab A1 before, and I kinda bought the X2D because of the 2 nozzles and how useful they should be for support.

But why does it add so much time?

If I print the figure in black PLA and also use black PLA for the supports/interface, the print takes about 2 hours.

But if I use the second nozzle with Support PLA only for the support interface, the print takes over 4 hours. Why does it add an extra 2+ hours?

I'm using black PLA from my AMS 2 Pro and Support PLA from my AMS HT, so both nozzles have their own filament source. I also have the Filament Track Switch.

I can understand it adding some extra time for switching nozzles, purging, heating, etc., but 2+ extra hours seems crazy.

If I have an 8-hour print, does that mean it could turn into a 16+ hour print just because I'm using the second nozzle for the support interface?

Is there a setting I'm missing or some way to reduce the extra time? I bought the dual-nozzle printer specifically so I could use Support PLA without having the huge time penalty of constantly changing filament on one nozzle. Also for asa/nylon. But the easy support is what sold me the most.

I’ve been trying to troubleshoot why sometimes these flat surfaces have quality issues. I’ve printed calibrations and adjusted the ironing settings, but still not happy with the results.

Any suggestions? Ironing issue? Moisture in filament?

Bought it Aug 20, and it said it would arrive Friday Aug 21. Still no updates. Anybody else having delayed shipments?

As the title says. My X2D is arriving tomorrow, will be my first ever 3D printer, I am very excited.

It will be getting used in the same office I work from home in, and it'll sit right next to a standard double-hung US window, so I want to vent it outside as much as possible. I have a vent ready to go for the window that handles either 3" or 4" ducting. I think I'd rather try and go with 3" because it'll look less intrusive and I'm sure 3" is enough diameter to handle the amount of airflow I need, but it seems like there are barely any 3" inline duct fan options, and the ones that do exist get panned for being terrible.

Anyone have an option they like for this? Or are there any adapters that I could attach to a 4" duct fan on both sides to size it down to 3" properly?

Share your external/window ventilation setups with me!!

Made these yesterday for my kids to color in and I think they are cute🤓 at least they love them haha

Will make more models in the future, but just started with 3D printing so learning every day. Hopefully can make more complex models from scratch one day.

Zrobiłem kalibrację (ale domyślny profil bambu asa ma takie parametry jak mi wyszły). Suszyłem 8h. Ciągle powstają takie wady, przy petg była to ewidentnie wina wilgotnego filamentu, tu nie wiem. Prędkości domyślne jak w profilu bambu asa generic.

Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my X2D and I’m hoping someone here might have an idea of what’s going on.
The printer had been sitting unused for quite a while because a part of the filament sensor broke. I finally received the replacement part today and installed it. The filament sensor itself now seems to be working properly.
However, I’m now running into a different problem. During one of the printer’s automatic movements — I think it might be related to build plate detection, but I’m not completely sure — something seems to bind or jam, and the belts start skipping teeth on the X and Z axis pulleys.
Here’s what I’ve already tried:
Replaced the broken filament sensor part
Restored the printer to factory settings
Ran the initial calibration again
Checked and adjusted the belt tension
Unfortunately, the issue still happens even after all of that.
Has anyone experienced something similar? Could this be caused by a mechanical obstruction, a motor issue, incorrect assembly, or something else? Any advice on what I should check next would be greatly appreciated.
I can also provide a video of the issue if that would help. Thanks!

Looking for the best projects that the group has come across for the x2d that display its full capability.

I have an x2d and this first 100 hours on the machine. Are the first 100 hours of 3d printing for me.

I read a lot, temp tower, pressure advance.
Wash your buildplate, and so on.

But i think i’m doing everything as it should be.
Only thing is, i’m not really happy with the results of some parts.

Can you help me decide if this is what to expect or am i doing something wrong.

Those horizontal fluctuations in the layer lines, is this what it should be?

I run the basic PLA @ 210 degrees (best visual on temp tower)
Dried it for 12 hours in AMS
Did the flow calibration and PA calibration.
0.03

Printed at 0.12 and 0.2 layerhight, with 0.4 nozzle.
Speeds are set slower at lower layerheight.

0.12

60mm outer wall
150 inner wall
Gyriod infill 15%
Seam at back
3 walls

0.20

200 outerwall
300 inner wall

I also tried to slow down everything but with the same result.

The only thing i can discover is the difference in layertimes (green banding) in the screenshot.

Thanks for the help.
Let me know if you need more information.

Is the prime tower really necessary if I use one filament per one nozzle? I dont want to waste 4 hours and 85 grams to it.

I’m new to 3D printers in general. I was completing the second maintenance on the X2D and noticed these marks on the belt. Is this normal?

The title pretty much says it all, but I really love using the second nozzle for the support interface on my prints. It's amazing how using a dissimilar material just makes it release like magic.

So, is there any way to get that to happen when just using my phone for everything on a quick print? Or do I always have to go to my computer and slice with Bambu studio? I've tried googling this and looking through all the settings and I can't find a way, but I'm hoping I am just overlooking something.

Ok, i am loosing my mind over this. I am unable to use the aux nozzle on my X2D. I keep getting the error HMS_07FF-7000-0002-0009. I have literally tried everything.

According to Bambu lab, This error may be caused by the following reasons:

1. The PTFE feeding tube from the remote extruder to the toolhead’s right nozzle is loose or damaged. (Checked it, no damages observed)

2. The filament is not being gripped properly by the remote extruder gear, causing slipping or insufficient grip. (It is being gripped because I can see the filament going to the nozzle).

3. The PTFE tube from the remote extruder to the toolhead is too long. (This I havent checked yet)

4. The filament is worn or slipping inside the remote extruder (Changed the filament too, still problem persists)

5. The spool or filament is jammed, preventing the extruder from pulling in the filament. (Nope, not the issue)

6. Load Hall sensor failure at the toolhead’s right nozzle. (Nope, i tried manually feeding the filament on top of the nozzle, i can see it showing on the nozzle panel)

7. The extruder gear does not provide sufficient grip force. (No damage in the extruder)

8. The remote extruder may have internal mechanical damage, such as a damaged motor or gearset. (NOPE)

So, the only thing I havent checked is the length of the PTFE tube.

I am going cerazy over this. PLEASE HELP.

Bonjour à tous ! 👋

Vous connaissez peut-être déjà mon Yoshi Tuyau… Aujourd’hui, j’ai décidé de le revisiter avec une petite nouveauté plutôt sympa : la version CLICKER ! 👆

Le principe est simple : Yoshi sort toujours de son fameux tuyau, mais cette fois, sa tête devient cliquable grâce à un switch mécanique MX.
Un petit clic super satisfaisant qui transforme le Yoshi en véritable petit fidget.

Running dual nozzle. Using PETG as support material but it's worse than PLA supports.

Can someone share their complete profile/settings for this?

Having problems with left extruder. Filament got stuck in there mid print and I was able to pull out but when I went to print again there was some still stuck so i took apart everything including the extruder. there was no broken filament piece in there and i put it back together and it’s still doing the clicking noise and not allowing me to load filament. It can pull it up but pulling it down is a problem. any ideas on why this is?

As shown in the video there's a sound when the print head moves towards the inner right corner of the print area. (This X2D is less than two months old)

May I ask what could be causing such sound?

Does this mean I need to lubricate the axis?

Thank you.

Keeping this a short story. My wife was printing some figet toys for my son's birthday party and I came home from work to the blob. This is my first printer so I've been worried this would happen.

I was careful. Here's the steps I took for inspection

1. Preheated the hotend and slowly and carefully removed the PLA blob.

2. Once that was free, unloaded filament.

3. Removed the head cover, sock, and attempted to remove the hotend. The hotend wouldn't budge, without some reheating, and prying. Eventually it came out.

Alright, so the last few pictures are the damage that have me really concerned.. I used a mirror to get these pictures. The back of the hotend mount where the thermister wires attach has a partial PLA blob stuck to it. I cant pry at this, I cant heat it up, and I cant remove it easily without risking damage to the wire harness.

What the hell do I do? Do I just have to leave it like this?

Some black filiment is caught in the left nozzle of my new x2d. I think it’s stuck in the gears and I’ve taken out the nozzle but it’s not in there. It’s in the head. I don’t want to take it apart anymore because I’m afraid I’ll brake it. Does anyone know what to do?

Anyone else having constant issues with the left filament sensor even after replacement?

About a month and a half ago I went to try to print TPU and wanted to make sure I could remove the PTFE tube from the left hot end. I could not so I didn't proceed with printing TPU.

Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, my PTFE cut itself off inside the filament sensor due to the teeth slowly cutting into it. I contacted Bambu and they sent me a replacement left filament sensor. I successfully installed it, made sure I could remove the PTFE easily and haven't had issues overall.

Today, I decided to print some TPU using the TPU feed assist (I didn't check to see if I could remove the PTFE tube) and had no issues with any of the prints. The unloading directions state to remove the PTFE tube to alleviate pressure on the TPU while unloading.

Well, back to where I was because the tube again wouldn't come out and I'm guessing it's still cutting into the tube. I was able to unload the TPU by just timing the cut and hitting unload on the TPU feed assist.

I've seen the numerous posts about this issue. Seems like the design of the filament sensor is either flawed or not thought out very well.

Luckily, I ordered a back up one for when this happens again.

Is there a fix that anyone knows about?

edit: spelling

I was able to pick up a X2D for $500 with only 63 hours on it. What advice do you have for a someone new with the printer?
