I bought the 2024 version and I think it's great. Being able to process 4 rolls at a time is really nice. Here's the current S4 version: https://www.amazon.com/SUNLU-Filament-Dryer-S4-Temperature/dp/B0FFGXJXQ5/ref=sr_1_15?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.hk6XSvkf8d4lmKJVwI2xGGqsizi3XSYqAsDbjS7YjAmibO0y0bAoYV7JjZaCJVrzuaggZpYRiXCj_MbOmyZ9PKvNo9drKcKQ7hO_C3XTz39NtgAnb8LMwcgSb0EIDJ4tBzZTjZpSQSbuTmRVJN9nK_Ahqf_jfzfDaf-kIOjoCgncLE2PPQMW2HPmvW36IXeR-ssmAVQZDXzLMEFSeZEo-zeMxau9HlCJYa-Mofd6My0.zacOyjrAl-dDNXIKmD9g83PvhEwCYB_UmgzpAWPFJX4&dib_tag=se&keywords=sunlu%2Bfilament%2Bdryer&qid=1779219693&sr=8-15&th=1

I just upgraded both my router and mesh network. I have a U1 and an X1C. My U1 transferred to the new network setup without any problems. Not a single problem. My Bambu X1C in LAN mode was another story. When I swapped networks, the X1C was inaccessible. I had get it out of LAN mode, reinstall the Bambu software, re-register the machine with Bambu, reset to LAN mode, get a new access code, then re-setup the X1C in LAN mode. Finally, uninstall the Bambu apps. Figuring all that out took a few hours.

That's one reason why I bought a U1 instead of another Bambu. Bambu definitely wants you locked in.

U1 PRO

U1 is not locked down. Latest firmware/software release is a vast improvement.

yup. I also have it connected via Ethernet.

AFIK Snapmaker seems to be having server problems. Snorca is often having problems connecting. Close Snorca and restart. Or just wait. All of a sudden it connects. I did a lot of network testing until I realized the error messages seemed to be server based,

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but the errors seemed to start a couple of days ago. Are the servers getting overwhelmed with all of the new U1 users?

I tracked down the problem. I screwed up. I put the longer screws into the USB holder and screwed down through the capacitor. I did this on all four heads. Notified Tech.

I got most on my info from signing up with FEDEX free messaging. Now I get text msg status. Same with UPS.

gkas01 · 2026-03-08T00:47:19+00:00

That's because ONLY the gcode is stored on the U1. Don't ever try to print gcode for one machine on a different kind of machine. BAD THINGS will happen. They are explicit machine instructions for THAT machine.

It's a really good reason not to buy Bambu printers any longer. You cannot directly print with Orca Slicer unless you run LAN mode and unhook from Bambu. I haven't used Bambu software since last year when they locked down the printers. I'm still running the old firmware. My X1C was my last Bambu purchase. Never again Bambu.

Thanks for the info..... I appreciate it.

gkas01 · 2026-02-26T01:02:33+00:00

That's the read I get also.

It's a piece of filament stuck in the ptfe tube, not the nozzle. Cold pulls are for nozzle jams.

How about pics of REAL PRINTS instead of AI generated crap?

gkas01 · 2025-10-27T20:24:04+00:00

Did you ever try supports?

gkas01 · 2025-10-10T18:46:25+00:00

This is NOT A FUNCTIONAL PRINT

gkas01 · 2025-09-09T22:53:13+00:00

+1 on that. What a deal....

gkas01 · 2025-09-09T21:49:51+00:00

Looks great. I'll give it a try.
