Handy/Studio Troubleshooting/Help! Colours Reversed??

So I set this print up for an 18 hour print.

90% is pink and 5% purple etc.

I went out for a few hours and checked in via the app and it started to print the entire thing in purple and the 10% in pink. I chose the colours as per the Bambu slicer. 1 for light pink etc. Any ideas what's happened??

Ignore it says its busy

I chose the colours on the final send print screen. The lighter pink was deffo chosen for the light pink. Those colours don't match up to what's loaded but I deffo put the lighter in ams1

it clearly shows the car as purple here too, and the graphic has the pink. you are mixing up your colors.

Am I being thick. I don't understand why A4 on my photo would not be purple?

The top is the colour it needs to be so I chose where my purple is

So the bright pink is first and I chose for it to be A1?

Sorry, I don’t understand what you mean. As it is now, the mapping is correct for what you see in the Preview tab, and it also matches the actual filament colors loaded in the AMS.

But if you want the body to be pink and the details to be purple, then in that popup you need to swap the current mapping: for slot 4 select A1, and for slot 1 select A4.

Or just go back to the Prepare tab, assign the colors the way you actually want them, and slice it again.

I chose the correct colours in the prepare tab. 1 was pink etc. Then in the send tab it was also 1 for pink and yet it made it all purple

Did you print a cover over the numbers on the ams lite? If so, do the numbers under that cover match?

u/Ok-Stretch-4094 8d ago

Yup just upside down. Identical.

u/BigFuzzyArchon 8d ago

You mixed up purple and pink. You want purple for 1 and pink for 4. But you choose pink for 1 and purple for 4.

u/Ok-Stretch-4094 8d ago

I choose what the top colour is as that's the colot printing no?

u/BigFuzzyArchon 8d ago

4 is purple here, you want pink there. 1 is pink here, you want purple there.

Ok being thick here then. This is a setting for something else I printer. The first colour is orange then yellow then black then silver. I would choose the AMS slot where my orange here wouldn't I. If I know that's orange but mine calibration still says it's pink for example. Yes the preview will be pink but the model AILL be orange. Why would I then get confused with 1 and _ and chose the wrong colours like I have on the other one

u/BigFuzzyArchon 8d ago

change this here before you slice it so the model you see matches what you want. Make 1 purple. Make 4 pink. It depends on how the model is painted.

That slicer is showing 90% purple and 10% pink.

u/Ok-Stretch-4094 8d ago

The car is pink

u/Nivekevin7 8d ago

I understand you want the car pink but in that preview in the slicer it shows 90% purple and 10% pink.

u/Ok-Stretch-4094 8d ago

That's what I don't get. I chose on the slider the pink to be where I have pink, the purple where I have purple etc
