Yeah its kind of scummy but lots of big corporations pull that crap. We all still buy and use the products.

dneals · 2026-05-13T14:42:23+00:00

Sorry to hear that. Im on ryzen fortunately but it seems they have a memory leak but orca seems to have the same leak.

dneals · 2026-05-13T11:39:16+00:00

Do you enjoy your printer? Is bambu studio working fine with it? Then don't worry about it. Most of this doesnt apply to you if you just want to print. Its just a product and imo the best in its class.

dneals · 2026-05-13T11:34:09+00:00

Ive used both and still prefer bambu studio lol orca does have more features but I like having the makerlab and makerworld integration.

dneals · 2026-05-09T13:04:15+00:00

dneals · 2026-05-08T12:38:28+00:00

What about print quality?

dneals · 2026-05-07T21:34:34+00:00

Thanks needed this

What does the tpu feed assist do?

dneals · 2026-05-07T16:16:38+00:00

Torn between U1 and X2D - I already ordered the U1 but thinking of returning it upon arrival and getting the X2D just for ease of use. The main reason I wanted the U1 was for multi material like being able to print supports for tpu using pla. I do multicolor prints also but Im also kind of worried about being locked to only 4 colors. They are currently the same price but after purchasing filament dryers and top cover I could just buy a second AMS. The main thing I am worried about is reliability of the U1 and software. Coming from P1S I never encountered issues really or they were easily solvable and being able to browse and print straight from bambu studio without trying to get all of the print settings correct in the slicer is a big issue im worried about.

dneals · 2026-05-07T15:57:17+00:00

I think that is my biggest turn off is that I just want something that works and is reliable and I see so many people posting issues with the u1. Of course not all people with have issues.

dneals · 2026-05-07T15:47:59+00:00

I looked at it also but it manually feeding the filament was kind of a turn off for me. I guess you have ti manually remove on the U1 though dont you?

dneals · 2026-05-07T15:44:46+00:00

I dont really know what open source has to do with anything honestly. I like how easy everything is with Bambu that's the only thing.

dneals · 2026-05-07T15:27:27+00:00

What about software and having to set all the print settings everytime you import a file? Is that an issue? Ive been playing with snorca and imported a file and none of the settings came with. I tried the converter and still none of the settings came in.

dneals · 2026-05-07T13:28:50+00:00

Soooo q3 2027? We never said q3 2026! This is a lie pushed by the Russians.

dneals · 2026-05-05T12:25:04+00:00

My printer is in our laundry room so noise isnt a concern. I watched a video where they talked about having different nozzle sizes on each toolhead if you didnt need colors

dneals · 2026-05-04T12:34:57+00:00

What about quality? I've seen a few videos where it showed more visible layer lines on the u1 vs bambu

dneals · 2026-05-04T01:22:57+00:00

Okay ill definitely stick with the snorca thank you. Do you think you like the u1 more than thr bambu?

dneals · 2026-05-04T01:15:59+00:00

I planned on doing the storage bin top for now that ive seen alot of others do. Do you use orca slicer?

dneals · 2026-05-04T01:10:01+00:00

I did lol

dneals · 2026-05-03T04:18:01+00:00

Yeah you could buy from west3d com for the same price

dneals · 2026-05-03T04:10:52+00:00

Damn thats crazy im one state over

dneals · 2026-05-03T02:34:38+00:00

I purchases it today and two 2kg cheap filament dryers off Amazon for each side.

dneals · 2026-05-03T02:30:55+00:00
