Bambu P1S First Print: Essential Tips for Beginners

[@alterN8te8]

Legend, thank you! I followed the Bambu start-up which completely skipped actually selecting the feed option… which was really obvious thinking back. Subscribed

Awesome, glad to have you as a viewer!

damn I didnt find my answers there, I'm looking for tutorial which shows how the heck do I take out the printing plate, or if it is even supposed to come out, then how do I take out my first print from the printer

[@bambamprint]

Not a problem that is more simple than you think! The gold plate is just magnetic. Use the front tabs on the plate and lift up. You will feel it release. Then do as best you can without fingering the plate (is that a word?) so you dont leave any oils on it. You can bend the plate back and forth to remove the print from the plate. Many people wash after each print but that is totally a waste. I rub my plates on my shirt to remove the printer dust. Then reinsert it. I can do a video for you as well.

When printing PLA you should have the top open and the door

[@bambamprint]

Yes as per what Bambu Labs suggest. This is to eliminate "heat creep". However I have never had an issue with that but its always great to check out the provided pdf link here for reference. Here is their PDF: cdn1.bambulab.com/filament/Bambu-Filament-Guide-EN.pdf I have printed over 20kg on one project (Star Destroyer) and I never once ran into an issue on my P1S's. Happy 3D printing!

@@bambamprint yeah you might not run into problems but it's best to take the precaution so you don't

MicroSD card? No such thing as a micro USB card. There is a microUSB connector but that's not what you showed.

[@bambamprint]

hahah true that! I can't believe I missed that mistake. Nobody has ever mentioned it!

[@jckf]

@@bambamprint Honestly the first thing I noticed, but most people either: Don't notice, don't care, or are afraid to point out mistakes. Which is fair of course, especially with how difficult it can be to give feedback like this without unintentionally upsetting the other party.

[@bambamprint]

@jckf haha not upset here. I am glad you pointed it out. I usually don't make mistakes like that.

[@Pacifictheory]

Nobody mentions it because everyone KNOWS what he means. It doesn't need to be pointed out​. @bambamprint

[@bambamprint]

@Pacifictheory I fixed it 😂
