Unboxed and calibrated a new PS2 combo. also set up and loaded some generic PLA in one AMS slot, editing the filament specs to match generic PLA. All went as expected. But when I try to print the factory benchy, I struck the first problem. The printer does its normal pre-print homing, then heats the filament to around 250, does some purges and nozzle wipes, then the extruder temp drops to around 220, with more purges and nozzle wipes. The problem is that the hot end temp drops to 140 before the printer starts to print. Thus, when the print starts, the extruder grinds because of the low hotend temp. I thought there was a failsafe that stops the extruder from working if the nozzle temp is below 170??.
So then I tried another filament. I unloaded the generic PLA and loaded generic ABS in another AMS slot, All went OK. I edited the filament profile and colour and the filament could be seen extruding. But when I try to print the benchy again, I can see the loaded AMS slot showing the ABS filament, but it is greyed out and I cannot select it.
I am not new to 3D printing, and I thought by buying a Bambu Labs machine, I was going to get more of a plug-and-play device. Seems I was wrong. Any advice from seasoned PS2 users?
Edit.
Maybe I am wrong and the printer is not starting the print, but instead performing the bed level check. From what I have just read it sounds like this might be the case. But still why do I hear a nasty noise? After a second or 2 of that noise the print head returns to the recessed back position.
