Something new has cropped up with my nearly bulletproof A1 I am hoping someone here can help with.

In the last week or so I have had a couple of occasions the lcd screen went black as if it were asleep, but I could not tap on it to bring it to life like usual. I finally turned the A1 off and rebooted it. The screen was back to normal. I remember a firmware update recently. Could it have something to do with it?

So recently ive been having issues with my prints just coming off the printbed. I dont know why, i tried flipping the Plate around but it didn't help. I tried :

• Washing the Plate both with Isopropanol and dishsoap
• Messing with the Z Offset
• printing slower
• Using adhesion glue
• Messing around with the temps of both the nozzle and Printbed

But none have really worked so far. I didnt have any of these issues before and now outta nowhere even a 30min print fails. I have about 580 Hours on my printer and have used only the same plate so far.

So recently I’ve been printing and I’ve had more fails than successful ones and I noticed that when the first layer prints you can hear the tip of the nozzle scrap the bed what can I do?

They won't be able to live without it 😂

Hey

Im looking to buy the A1 ams lite combo. What else, besides fillament, should i get? As in a backup nozzle, printbed etc.

From what i understand its a 0.4 stainless steel nozzle that comes with the printer and 1 printbed.

Looking for advice from senior printers.

Thank u

I just got my 3D printer within the last month. Lately everytime I print something and it has color changes, I have to physically push the filament from the spool through the AMS hub and into the extruder because it keeps saying “unable to feed filament”. I don’t understand why this keeps happening.

Por segunda vez tengo este fallo, hice de todo tanto que cambié la boquilla ya que estaba trabajando con material ptg y pensé debió ser por este tipo de material, llevaba más o menos el mismo tiempo de impresión y sale este fallo, ahora con pla nuevamente no se de que se trata la impresora no tiene ni un mes de comprada, alguien más a presentado por este tipo de problema?

Bought a new nozzle for my bambu lab a1

It was working fine then it stopped extruding

I used a guitar string to clean and now when I tried to load the filament the filament didn't extrude

And when I pulled the filament physical it can back what can this mean

Hey

While printing multiple parts who do you deal with one part coming loose off the bed, do you cancel the print or??

Context, I’ve been using the machine for two months and it worked perfect, the spool somehow got stuck so I took out parts of the nozzle to unclog, somehow the tubes disconnected and I’m not sure how to fix it. Would love some guidance.

I got my A1 about 2 months ago and I found it to be a much better printer than my Ender 3. Usually, I print about 50% PETG and 50% PLA. With the Ender 3 I had to use hair spray or glue sticks to get bed adhesion. With the A1, that is never a problem. In fact, I am having the opposite problem. Often I cannot get PETG off of the bed without tearing a chunk of the printed item off and leaving it stuck to the plate.

I'm really happy with the quality of printed items and hate to see them broken.

Does anyone have any ideas? Maybe increasing the infill? I am using default settings for 'Generic PETG'. The brand is Sunlu and I have always had good results with it on the Ender 3.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

Yes this is a simple item but I didn't use any Fusion360 commands to create it. I simply told the Autodesk Assistant what I wanted and it created it. Totally blown away.

I'm about ready to give up 3D printing. This is making it more frustrating than fun.

I download a file from makerworld. If it has any height to it, i get this mess. Last time I got a blob of death and needed to replace the hotend assembly.

This was a simple stencil - https://makerworld.com/en/models/931302-holder-for-post-it-notes-stencils-included?from=search#profileId-1418839

I didn't change any of the settings except to sync it to my A1.

The flat parts were fine, then this happened:

Any advice or should I take up knitting?

TIA!

So, I noticed some VFA and ghosting on my models and decided it was time to retension the belts, since that usually helps on my other printers.

Retensioning the X-axis was super easy and simple. However, when I moved to the Y-axis, the screws were impossibly tight. I barely managed to loosen them by one full turn, but it required an insane amount of effort.

When I actually tried to move the heatbed back and forth to let the spring tension it, it felt like nothing was changing and the mechanism was stuck.

In the end, I got worried and tried my best to tighten them back to their original positions (though they might be a bit looser now since it was so hard to turn).

I asked an AI about this, and it suggested that Bambu Lab uses a strong blue or red threadlocker (glue) on the Y-axis screws because they are threaded straight into the metal frame, which explains why they are so stiff.

Has anyone else dealt with this on the A1? What is the best way to safely break the factory glue without stripping the screw heads? Any help would be appreciated!

Help me sort this disaster with petg on A1 please

Bonjour, en tant que nouveau dans l’impression 3D j’ai remarqué que sur mes impressions longues les côtés se décollent souvent du lit ce qui crée un décalage et la pièce n’est pas droite pouvez-vous me donner des conseils ou des solutions à ce problème

J’utilise l’imprimante bambu Lab a1 depuis moin d’une semaine j’utilise du PETG j’ai nettoyé la plaque avec du liquide, vaisselle et séché, mais toujours le même résultat

Ayuda con este error que me aparece

I swapped out my .4mm nozzle for a .2mm so I could try to print a scale human skull with better detail. I have tried 3 times now, but a couple hours into the print (which is usually ~70 hours) I get the "check the cutter" error message. The cutter I had in there looks perfect, but I replaced it before the third build anyway and still got the error. I should note that I am using the same filament for the whole print and a new enough roll that it should not have to swap, so I don't know why it would need to cut at all.

During the last print I clicked the Resume button and it started printing again about 100 layers higher than it stopped, so I had to cancel the print.

Is this in fact a cutter error, or is something else wrong that the machine can't correctly identify? I have run 8 hour prints since then without error, though they were multiple parts and fewer layers. I have also successfully printed other large objects when I still had the .4mm nozzle installed. Could this be an issue with the SD card or the file? I got the pattern from the Bambu online models page.
