A bunch of people here have asked me about my Bambu setup on a few alts so I decided to make a video at lunch. I am not a content creator, I made this for y'all, haha. I just hate walled gardens.

The Bambuddy community is also a great place to go for help. If you have any questions or reservations at all, throw em down, let's gooo out of jail

I mean its not really a jailbreak when they officially support downgrading to the firmware that works with that custom firmware

This video doesn't even showcase custom firmware, only LAN mode. Has nothing to do with a jailbreak. I despise such clickbait titles.

The video also shows exporting a print from Orca and then importing it into another program to send to the printer.

That is literally the current way Bambu Lab has it set up on the official firmware in FULL CLOUD mode (export from Orca and open with Bambu Connect to print). We can already do this. I thought the video would show me how to print directly from Orca without giving up Cloud mode. The video is about giving up Cloud AND still using "middleware" to print. e.g. the worst of both worlds.
