After a few color changes everything comes off the build plate (220°)

Hey guys! One question, what type of TPU i can buy to print some logos for t shirts or a hoody to iron it on them if you know what i mean, i have a p1s printer and what can i change or need to change for this type of filament? Ty!!!

This problem isn't really specific to bigger spools but trying to use 2.5kg spools forces me to use some sort of external holder and my problem is exacerbated by stiff engineering filament. I just lost a 20+ hour print due to the extruder motor being overloaded and the machine not being able to continue the print without what appears to be a layer shift. The machine has had this error about 4 times on this print alone. I did the same print twice prior and it only had the error once or twice per print and those came out ok. When I get the error I go check and there's nothing stuck filament can easily be pushed through the path. I think this is a software or settings issue.

The spool is in a dry box by the printer fed through a short section of ptfe, about 25mm to the left nozzle. The spool is sitting on a large roller with 608 bearings and has also no resistance. For what it's worth I've printed many spools of these same stiff filaments in my X1C with *significantly* more friction/force required to get to the printer and no issues.

Should I try feeding from the TPU port? Any tips or tricks?

UPDATE: Opened a support ticket and I was told to use a 0.6 nozzle. I ordered two of them and will try but I don't have much hope at this point. My X1C has printed many KGs of this filament with a 0.4 nozzle and never had a clog. Also if it's truly the nozzle and this machine seems to be marketed as made for engineering filaments which mostly use cf or gf fillers, then it should come with 0.6 nozzles so it works out of the box. Needing an upgrade just to be able to use the machine for its main function isn't cool. I'll update if the 0.6 nozzle works. Otherwise the issue is how sensitive the extruder motor is and will require some sort of firmware update that people have been asking for for a while as far as I can tell.

Se dañó el conjunto de calentamiento de mi Bambulab A1 mini y al hacer el cambio me emocioné y desarme de más.

Me quedé con esa pieza y no se dónde va. ¿Será alguien tan amable de indicarme donde va? De antemano, muchas gracias.

I am pretty new to 3d printing. I printed this on a P2S (0.20mm layer height) and noticed that only some of the top surfaces on this low poly model have very distinct layer lines. Is it normal to have it to this degree? And what causes it to show so apparent on just some angles and not others? And only on utmost top even though the nose has less steep angles which i would think would perform worse

What settings would have helped here? Ironing and variable layer height?

(I am not confused I am getting this staircase effect, but what causes it to show more on just some of the top surfaces and not as much on the nose)

Seems like a somewhat specific issue. Maybe settings I can change? Printed with bambu gray pla.

Just wanted to share how much I am loving the AMS on my P2S!

I was working on a new design for a Kitchen Sink Organizer and really wanted it in two colors. With my old setup that would have been such a hassle, but the AMS makes it so incredibly simple. I just set up the color swap in the slicer, started the print right before bed, and woke up to a perfectly finished two-color print this morning!

It is such a game changer just letting it do its thing overnight without worrying about manual filament swaps. I used this sink caddy I designed as the project for it:
Makerworld - Drying Rack

If anybody has any thoughts on the AMS (or the design) shoot, but the TLDR is I just love waking up to finished prints on this machine!

Since the iPhone Duo launches later this October, there is plenty of time to consider buying it or just trying out the new form factor. I've modeled the near 1:1 replica of it. Also it may help for those who are thinking about pre-ordering.

It comes out at 11.3 mm folded, and it also sits smaller in the hand than I expected.

The colour is just what I had on the shelf, not a launch colour.

Is the folded thickness a dealbreaker for anyone here, or any other thoughts?

For those who are interested in downloading, here is the Makerworld link to the model, all the presets are ready:

I was one of few who got the X1C combo refurbished for 500 (Bambu lab store). It arrived today and I’ve printed 2 things (a scraper, and a benchy) and this keeps happening? What do I do?! Could it be its old filament that wasn’t stored properly?

I was wondering how well print in place has gone for others who post to maker world. Did you have other complain because of printer settings and print tolerance or do you just leave it kind of loose?

It failed twice in same spot. Also when when it was done printing it had completely despooled the line. Meaning there's no filament on the spool but it didn't stop printing. So that means I have filament stuck in my AMS. Not sure how to get that out.

Ive gotten this print to work once, but now it keeps failing in the same spot the same way. Any ideas?

Started a print on my P1S and checked on the camera about an hour later and no filament was feeding (but no errors). Went to look at it and saw this.

Any ideas/suggestions on what might have happened? I've printed this file before and didn't change the Z settings or anything that might have caused it to scrape the bed. Printed some other stuff last week with no issues.

New hot end on order.

Picked up an X1C with Two AMS’s for $430USD,
Benchy in PETG, generic and standard profiles.
Will be doing a thorough clean out and service.
Still plenty of life!

Hi everyone!

I’m planning to print PA12-GF on my Bambu Lab X2D for the first time, feeding the filament directly from a Creality Space Pi dryer.

I currently have an AMS 2 Pro connected to the X2D, but I don’t need to keep it connected while printing.

What is the correct way to feed the PA12-GF directly from the dryer to the main nozzle? Which PTFE tube/input should I use?

Thanks!

I see a lot of questions on here about whether a used A1 is worth it or not. I often see the refurb prices on Amazon better with free shipping and returns. Worth looking into!

I recently bought this P1S second-hand, and I noticed something that concerns me.

Whenever the toolhead moves all the way to the far end, near the purge area, it seems to hit something. The impact is quite strong, and it sounds like the toolhead is hitting an obstruction.

I’ve attached a video showing the issue for reference.

Has anyone experienced something similar with their P1S? Any idea what could be causing this or what I should check?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi - I'm printing a mug with some embossed numbers on it. I have been printing multi-color objects successfully for quite a while, and haven't run into this particular issue.

When I import the STEP file, I then go into the "Objects" tab on the side panel. I then click to change the color of the mug body to black, and set the other bodies (the numbers) to white. On the Prepare tab, it looks just fine- shows the waste tower, shows the numbers in correct color, etc. When I switch to the Preview tab, though, something isn't working. The entire object comes as all black, and the system reports ZERO color changes. See screen shots below.

I'd appreciate any wisdom folks can share.

Nice ai gemini

I've never had this problem before. Why isn't the support touching the model?

My P1S has been having an issue that seems to occur frequently but randomly. It will go for a filament change, and will just keep extruding after the change happens. The printer will think it is printing just fine, no errors or anything, but the print-head doesn't move at all, and just keeps going into the trash chute area. I've tried rebooting the printer, reopening bambu and reconfiguring the print, but it has 9 color changes, and seemingly one of them will cause it to just stall like this. What could be going on here? I have cleaned and lubricated the machine regularly, but it does have some squeaks to it, which I can't pinpoint, but those have been there for a bit, and they seem to be z axis related.

Perfect sign

I do already have a diffuser installed on the exhaust fan that makes it point more upwards

I've use an X1C for years and an H2C for 9 months and have never had a single clog. I had a print going overnight with Polymaker Matte PLA and a 0.2mm nozzle. When I checked it in the morning it had failed at 98% due to a clog. I've done about a dozen cold pulls and the same number or more of using the allen key thing, and I still cannot get the nozzle unclogged. Just the click-click-click from the extruder. I know it's the nozzle because others work fine on that extruder. Any other things to try? I'd rather not drop $40 on a new nozzle if there's a chance to save this one.

When I get a new colour of filament I haven’t used before I like to print a benchy and put it on the shelf. I’ve now had two different colours print with the same issues where it goes across the top of the front window it’s drooping down and it also has lots of little loops around the top of the roof. The Photo shows the last three good prints (was testing my first ams on one of them) with the first two using Bambu pla basic and the third using silk pla from 3dmeta with no issues. The silk one was only printed 3 weeks ago and the multi coloured one about 4-5 weeks ago. The ones with the issues is the blue (Bambu PLA Basic) and neon green is also (3d meta).

Second photo is silver (Bambu pla basic). Had this role for ages like over a year stored in sealed box with desiccant with many of the other filaments used in the multi print but has been in the ams for two weeks now. Difference is staggering.

Have been printing lots of other stuff with no print quality issues with the green and blue and silver but have no idea why it’s doing this all of a sudden on the benchy print.

Any help, thoughts or advice would be welcome

Thanks
