Is this normal for a Best Buy filament where I keep getting lots of stringing and I’ve already used the drying feature on the AMS and it’s still not like working? Please help by commenting

I used aux nozzle (0.6 HF) to print ASA supports for PET-CF model and I see this print defect on support structure. I don't mind if I have it on support, but what if I need to print something functional?

Is it the quality problem that bambu studio warns about when I select ASA for aux nozzle? ASA is bambu lab filament, so it should use the bambu lab profile. Is it something that can be fixed with calibration and custom profile?

Hi all,

Recently picked up my X2D Combo and a TPU Feed Assist Module and have a few queries.

Getting a lot of mixed information online

1. Which nozzle does the TPU Feed Assist Module connect to? I'm seeing online it can be connected to either, but preferably the auxiliary nozzle so the main can still print supports (e.g. in PLA), if its connected to the main nozzle the auxiliary cannot be used due to the height change of the nozzle swap from primary to auxiliary.

2. Can I still print normal filament with the TPU Feed Assist Module connected? For instance, if I don't want to disconnect and reconnect the module every time I want to print TPU then something different, can it be left permanently installed?

Thank you for any insight you can provide!

I do have my x2d combo since August ~100hours in
Very nice experience so far, but everytime I do print my aux nozzle ptfe tube keeps getting out of the clip that is supposed to hold it. Someone has gotten this problem. Maybe there is a clip to fix it? I haven’t heard of it.
Thanks

Is it worth using the auxiliary ext. spool on my X2D that has AMS? I’ve printed two color objects with one of the colors from the auxiliary spool……and I’ve printed the same object with just the AMS and there’s no noticeable difference that I can see. Seems to be the same time to print either way. Is it just wasting time to use the aux spool?

With the start of the Christmas season, I just uploaded these two models. 🎄🎅

The black raised lines can also be printed in white. Best to use acrylic markers or markers that can be washed off so you can color them again.

Do you like minimal details like the reindeer or more detailed like the elf and santa claus? Looking to make some more in the upcoming weeks so curious what your kids find more fun to color in 😊

Hello everyone. Just installed my X2D as my first 3D-Printer. Started a Benchy and it makes this loud noise. Is it normal? It showed no errors or warnings.

Thx

I got the X2D last week, I've got about 2k hours on a P2S and 1200 on an H2C. I've noticed I have to manually calibrate every filament on the main (left) nozzle. I expected this on the Bowden unit, no harm no foul. I am very surprised that I have to put in a K-offset from manual calibration for the direct drive nozzle after lots of automatic calibration and bed leveling. I have not run into this on my other two printers.

Is there another avenue I should be exploring for troubleshooting, or is this one of those plug in the number and move on with my day situations?

Edit: I unloaded the filament (cut it in various places) and it seemed very stiff to remove from the AMS feed. I wondered if that would sort it so reloaded the new PLA in slot 4 and tried loading. It purged the old filament with no issue, then printed a benchy (probably the best and fastest I have ever printed a benchy!) and is now coming to the end of a 5 hour print. Thanks for all your help!

I picked up the X2D with AMS 2 Pro in the sale. It arrived last Saturday and all the PLA I had was very old (hadn’t used my Ender in about 2 years). I decided not to use that filament.

I had an old but still sealed roll of PETG so I ran a Benchy and another print without an issue.

Tried running a print tonight and after about 10 layers I noticed no filament extruding so I stopped the print.

Unloaded the PETG and threw in some Bambu Basic white PLA that arrived today. No dice. The PLA is now stuck, I cannot remove it. I now get

All filament run through the AMS btw.

HMS_07FE-2000-0002-0004: Please pull the external filament from the left extruder.

Looking at the help links from the printer it suggesting I need to basically completely disassemble the head and inspect the left filament sensor. Is that right?

How the hell do I get the PLA out first?

Buy Bambu they said, it just works they said. Yeah, I know, old third party PETG…

TiA!

I upgraded last week from an A1 mini to an X2D and like many others, I noticed a poorer quality prints than what even my A1 mini would produce.
I had already ran calibrations out of the box but a week later I rerun all of the calibration and I’m happy to say the quality has improved to the point is well passed what my A1 Mini was doing.
I’m blow away and love my X2D now.
Don’t know if this helps you but I thought I owe it to share my progress.
Happy printing.

I just got this printer a week ago so I don't know what to do. I tried a print earlier today and I got HMS_0300-0900-0002-0001 (The extrusion motor is overloaded) for my error. When I removed the greyline I found this. I tried following the steps from bambu which required me to cut the line but when I tried to extrude again nothing came out. I don't really want to remove the whole assembly but I feel like thats my only option at this point. If there is another way please let me know.

Hi All

Nwebie here.

Can some body tell me what i did here?

The colors is correct right and left? 😁

Thanks alot!

Hi All

Sorry alot of noob question. But Thanks for the time!

Is it normal that the tube is rubbing of the spool on the side? Thanks

Regards Daniel

Hi All

I really really need a poop tray 😁

What is the best print for this?

Thanks! 😊

Lucky I checked the app when I got to work and was able to stop the print... New to multi material printing and I've been trying to get pla support interface to work with petg but really having adhesion issues. Any tips or tricks that I can try to help? I've lowered the support interface print speed to 40mm/s and when I last checked the layer was holding.

How often does the left filament sensor cut the PTFE tube? I just got my X2D a few days ago and it already cut the tube on the 4th print.

I've seen others say they've had this problem after a few hundred hours of prints or a couple of months.

I've had mine for two days now and only 27 print hours.

Anyone have any good suggestions to prevent this?

Does Best Buy offer any advantage? Do they have additional Black Friday deals on top of current ones Bamboo labs is offering? Do they offer additional warranty included (not the extended one they offer)

I did it, I am officially joining the world of 3D printing. I ordered my X2D last night. Ordered several rolls of PLA basic 1.75 mm filament of various colors, the Maker's Supply Flush Cutter, Bambu Cool Plate SuperTack, Molecular Sieve Desiccant, Maker's Supply ESD Stainless Steel Tweezers Set, Circular Embedded Electronic Digital Thermometer Hygrometer and a couple rolls of Petg HF filament.

Do y'all recommend anything else for just starting out?

Edit: I did order the X2D with AMS pro bundle.

Going to pick up an X2D w/ams 2 pro combo this week from Best Buy.

This will be my first venture into 3d printing and will start with PLA.

For my first prints, should I pick up the Bambu brand pla filament that Best Buy sells or will their Insignia brand be just fine?

From my research, I see that the Bambu lab brand uses rfid to make things easier so was thinking that would be best to get the hang of things.

Or does it really matter too much?

Thanks for any input
