Workflow
The Bambu printer does not support OctoPrint, so it must be used with the Bambu Studio software and/or app. We recommend using the built-in settings and profiles for most prints. Advanced users can download OrcaSlicer, a FOSS fork of Bambu Studio with advanced features and built in calibration options.
- Import your model(s) into the slicer software
- Arrange the models on the bed. Certain orientations can speed up printing or improve strength.
- Select the slicing options:
- Bed type (textured or smooth)
- Material (PLA, PETG, etc)
- Layer height preset ("0.12 Fine", "0.20 Standard", etc)
- These settings can be modified if needed, but the presets are a good place to start.
- Slice the model
- Send to printer
- Required the printer sign-in information which will be given after completing training.
- Monitor the print until it is completed. This can be done in person, through the slicer software, or through the Bambu Handy app.
