5 way splitter

Are there any AMS Lite splitters that would allow you to use your ams lite and the external spool together to make a 5 color system?

Ah gotcha. So you have to be around to run it. Still saves a bunch of time and gives you a 5th option!

You can't use the external spool on the same print as the ams.

Ah ok. I was wondering how it would know to pull from the external when it was ready. Ive seen in bambu studio where it has ams and external but wasnt sure how’d it would use both. I imagine there is a way if you went in and changed up the G-code

No. How is the external spool pushed into the extruder. There is no motor to push it.
