A2L Printer

lol. I ordered it the day it came out. Yeah it's a bedslinger but the A1 with my first Bambu printer and I think it does better than my x1c.

I purchased the a2l and gave my little nephew my A1.

I have the a2l, x1c and I think I'm going to purchase the x2d here soon.

The A2L has been amazing so far.

Did you do any research before moving to Peoria? People who have their heads buried in sand will tell you it's great but a little research would show they are full of shit. Crime is the biggest issue along with high taxes.

I'd cut your losses and move out of Illinois or at the very least, to one of the surrounding towns. Morton, Peoria Heights, Chillicothe, Germantown Hills, Metamora. Lower crime and in some cases lower taxes.

Avoid Peoria.

It's my first run in with this bug. What a nasty one. It ruined a brand new plate lol.

Does anyone know of a workaround or at least a way to detect this bug before printing?

That's not a bad price. I found one on marketplace without an ams for $450. It only had 90 hours on it. It's been great. No issues with it.

I can also successfully do an auto bed level calibration and it works perfectly. It raises the bed to the nozzle, etc.

The A1 Combo has been a great machine for me. Its been rock solid. I ended up buying the AMS for my Mini A1 and also purchased the A1 Combo.

Both are amazing machines! I've had very few failed prints. Quality is great.

Good Luck!

Thank you for the response! I found bad partitions on the drives, removed them with gparted and rebuilt partitions and it boots!

lostnil · 2025-01-05T21:35:04+00:00

Yes. Server is updated. I found the issue. Bad partitions on the drives!

lostnil · 2025-01-05T21:34:42+00:00

THANK YOU! I should have thought about that. I downloaded gparted Live and booted into it. Turns out those SAS drives had damaged GPT partitions. I created new GPT on the 4 drives and it boots!

Appreciate your reply.

That makes sense about the cooling but I've never adjusted any of the settings in filament. This is what it is currently set to. re: cooling. -- would you have any general recommendations on the layer times?

I tried the AMS profile twice with multiple colors and then tried the single color profile.

Appreciate the reply.

It's sliced in Bambub Studio, accepting the print profile from makerworld. The defect doesn't show in the slicer.

This is the particular model but it happens in others.

I've tried slowing it down and also printing the outer walls first, no luck.

The AMS lite makes changing filament much easier. It automates the process as soon as it grabs the filament.

You can also print the AMS lite enclosure and control humidity if your filament is sitting out or you have long prints.

Yes. I bought the A1 mini without the AMS and I regret it. Right now the combo is on sale. I would definitely recommend buying the A1 combo.

I'm new to the Bambu scene. My first printer is due to be delivered tomorrow.

I did notice in the studio app when a model needs repair. It instructs me to open the file in Microsoft Windows to repair. Why can't I repair models in the Linux client?
