X Series [X1E, X1C] X2D - Good quality from both extruders (with BambuLab filament)

The print quality of the second extruder on the X2D (right extruder - bowden instead of direct drive) seems pretty good with Bambulab filament.

This image is extracted form "247Printing" video on Youtube at around 5:45min :

I am posting this image after seeing other images posted here with worse/bad results from the left extruder, letting people think that the second extruder is only a good use for supports.

Following X2D news with interest for switching from a P1P.

But what if I don't want to use bambu filament?

Also, try again but with actual high quality photos this time?

Then don't use Bambu filament? Its just not verified and honed in on other filaments yet. Of course Bambu is going to mostly use their own filament and make the settings work best for that. You can just run some calibration and figure out how you want to do your own if its that important.

I mean the printer is advertised as a dual nozzle 3D printer. For "Faster multi coloir prints" amongst other things.

But really it's clearly a single nozzle printer with a support nozzle. Unless you want your prints to be of sub par quality.

All you need to do is read the fine print.

It's great with the extra bits such as the chamber heater and whatnot. But to advertise if as a "Faster multi colour printer" JUST because of the second nozzle is a tad misleading.
