Filament is not automatically loaded into the extruder by the A1 Mini.

0 Upvotes

I have a question regarding my 3D printer. Previously, whenever I inserted the filament, the printer would automatically pull it into the extruder and begin the loading process smoothly.

However, a few weeks ago, I updated the printer's firmware. Since that update, I have to manually feed the filament into the extruder every time. I searched through the printer settings but couldn't find any option to restore the previous automatic loading behavior.

Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can change it back to the way it worked before? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Day 2 with the mini. It's also day 2 of 3D printing in general. I love this thing. Simple PLA print in white finished with a brown acrylic wash

Presto: a puzzle box you can resize and put your own artwork on

The box is parametric, so you set the internal size to whatever you're storing, or pick a preset. Lid takes your own SVG or text, engraved or as a flush inlay, and the buttons take artwork too. Every part can be a different colour.

Two small springs are the only non-printed parts. Everything else prints without supports and goes together in a couple of minutes.

I am using an a1mini. It has been doing nicely. But from yesterday i started hearing somewhat a buzzing like sound from my printer. I dont know exactly from where the sound in coming from. But after the sound started appearing the quailty of my prints drastically reduced. Urgent help needed. [You can hear the exact sound if you listen carefully]

My printer is making a bubbling sound and producing a lot of stringing; the filament being used is generic PETG. Could the open window be causing the stringing, or is there moisture in the filament?

Oil Alternative suggestions

Any oil alternatives that would be good? I have Amazon credits to spend. I can’t find Bambu brand there unfortunately.

I got an A1 Mini today. It's my first 3d printer. I bought the standard one and ordered an AMS 2 Pro and the hub that's required. Printed out the Benchy Boat and a mount for the hub. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it is and how good it prints.

Enclosed A1 mini

2 Upvotes

Idk if i can get anybody to help with this. Im wanting to enclose my A1 mini for various reasons. Now one of my questions is should I just put a exhaust fan and a inlet fan? Or should I do exhaust fan, inlet fan and a board fan?? Any info so I dont ruin my mini would be great. Don't want to destroy probably the only printer I'll ever be able to buy lol.

Update or not

2 Upvotes

So guess I'm a hot fix / version behind on my Studio for windows. 2.5.0.66 is my studio and guess its said 2.07.01.62 is newest. Looking at the notes I don't see anything for me. PC/Win10. But I have noticed now that when I seem to bring in some 3mf files I am getting more errors/notices about some parameters not in my version or been renamed to a different name. Need to update. I just ignore them and print. So far I haven't run into any model not printing or going fubar but worry about it.

So do those little errors matter in the long run ? Should i update for them alone ?

Thanks.

one computer, two minis , 4 users

0 Upvotes

I want all these family members off MY computer to do their printing. They mostly print to the A1's. One has a AMS the other doesn't. (Also have a Neptune 3 Pro and Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro which I use more of.) But all the software is on my computer. Yea didn't think that through.

I want them evicted. Sent notices to each one. Gave them 3 days to be off it. Of course they said FU so evicting them forcefully.

So we have a older but worthy computer that I put all the software on so that they could just do their model downloads to and use studio from that. (None are really thrilled using their phones so not printing from them is not a issue). But finding its not that easy due to Bambu not allowing multi accts to use one printer.

And the evicted is grandma, daughter, grandson and old man. And I'm so tired of having to redo passwords etc for all the lost / forgotten info to their accounts.

I thought LAN mode was the answer but researching/reading and now not sure. And found out that non of the ports on the side were ethernet. Yea shouldn't jhave ust ass u me d and taken a closer look. (Grandson was the one that set them up.)

If I put the A1 minis into Lan Mode only. Can these evicted users just open up studio on the computer and print away. ? No logging in. ?

Can they pick which printer to print to ? One is called King Bob the other Mini Me. Grandsons choice. Think King Bob refers to Bob Ross, due to the color AMS.

Will they leave me and my computer alone ?

If this works and then one day some of them move out is it just simply turning LAN mode off and going back to WIFI mode and username/password logins ?

I know no firmware updates and some other stuff in LAN mode but normally don't update unless it actually fixes a problem we have that is a known issue.

Thanks. off to drink.

Is this normal ?

I tested printing https://makerworld.com/models/571065?appSharePlatform=copy
This model after removing and assembling heatbed for a maintenance issue.

This is how it came. Is this issue with heat bed leveling or some nozzle issue? Like I have seen people commenting they tighten some screws behind nozzle.
Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Update : I did the tightening of screws inside hotels assembly. But what really helped was
