This is their cheaper option, not the one that came on Kickstarter. This printer is amazing, haven't turned my prusa on in months because this is just so much faster. Just ordered my second one so feel free to ask any questions.

I'm confused by this, as Bambu has undercut the competition on pricing (Prusa), and delivered a more advanced machine as well. How is that like Dyson?

Also, didn't Dyson basically invent the high powered stick vacuum market and pretty consistently win performance tests against both traditional vaccums as well as other cheaper models?

Wow, one of the most popular "bed slinger" high speed printers on the market. I'm assuming they are about to release a newer version.
No. Not a bed slinger. CoreXY

This is tempting. I've been wanting to get my first 3D printer for awhile. I'm leaning towards Prusa mk4 kit so that I could build it myself and learn the ins and outs. I'd like the option to print multiple colors though so waiting to see how the MMU3 turns out.

I said that fast printing speeds and fast cooling affect how the material binds to itself. Meaning at those speeds the filament itself is the bottleneck.
Oh, okay. I have both the P1P and X1C and I can say cooling is not an issue with either of them, even the P1P without the Aux cooling fan. However, the nozzle can't keep up with the speed, resulting in artifacts in my prints. I never tested the functional strength of my prints though. Is your experience the same?

I have one of these. It really is very beginner friendly.

No.

Can it print CF filled filament? Sure, but then again, my wooden Printrbot could too.

CoreXY, not bed slinger.

Why is that funny?

Bambu provides 3MF files for various types of side panels and the community has created printable top/front panels as well. Some have even installed the X1 glass front door.

Welp, they just got my money. Ive had four Prusa printers (3 x MK3s, one with MMU2s,and a Mini+) for years now and would like to check out something as far advanced as something like these Bambu models. I would be all to happy to switch over if they perform as well as all the marketing and influencers claim. Prusa has been good and they have certainly paid for themselves, but they really are aging technology. I wasn't very impressed with the MK4 (or the issues with build quality on some of the electronics that Ive seen), and the XL is just crazily overpriced, so I wont even consider that one, nor do I need a printer that large for my products. So I guess Bambu Lab it is. For now. We'll see how it goes.

These new "speed wars" are so much like the megapixel wars of the yesteryear, but it was just a marketing trap all along.

When you keep cramming more megapixels into the same sensor you reduce the overall size of each pixel and your light sensitivity takes a nosedive, so you end up with the worse image quality than before.

The end of those wars was marked by the release of the first ever digital full-frame camera, the Nikon D700, with a sensor that was easily 20 times bigger than the ones inside of the average point-and-shoot camera of that time and yet it was only... 12 megapixels. It was an instant hit. That was the moment when everyone got wise to the fact that they were getting played and the mpx count meant very little.

Same thing here. The bottlenecks are all same as before and they're not how fast you can move the nozzle.

When you print really fast you have to cool really fast, so there's hardly any time for the material to bind to itself. The result is much, much weaker parts. Probably not a big deal if all you print is figurines, but for everything else you can expect a rude awakening.

That's why I sold my Ender 5s1 and can't say I miss it since my "slow" XL printers with .8 nozzles can extrude the same amount of material in an hour as a really fast printer with a .4 nozzle and not even break a sweat.

Unfortunately you can't just add a .8 nozzle to a fast printer and go even faster, so the tortoise ends up beating the hare.

That being said, I do want a really fast enclosed XL printer, so I've been waiting for either the K1 Max or the Bambu Max/Plus/Big Kahuna. My guess is that's what's in store for us, so I'm holding.
Volume is the issue, not cooling.

All the haters hating on the price, but there's a reason almost every print farm business is making the switch over to Bambu printers. Their parts are cheaper than most of the competition regardless of closed/open source and their print speeds and reliability in printing seem to be a huge selling point for businesses printing hour on hour.

I am grateful I started with traditional Creality bed slinger, I still spent about $350 for the printer and a sonic pad, and I've made the argument it's the best way to start in printing as there is a large learning curve and you really do need to know the basics. The Bambu kind of jumps over all that and starts you about 80% of the way there. You still have to know how to slice a file and load filament, but you skip over so much else like bed leveling, z height adjustment, creating a mesh, tuning your PID, E-Steps, input shaping, pressure advance, and understanding acceleration and speeds etc.

That said, I look forward to picking up an X1C, it's time I graduate to something a little less finicky. I wouldn't sell my Creality printer though, it's a good little machine and the countless hours I've spent tuning it, it's pretty reliable.

Now if Bambu had just added a nice little coupon for the X1C I would have pulled the trigger today.
Those businesses better be really careful about their data security. The sending of encrypted logs without the user knowing what's in it can land them in some bad waters. especially ITAR and CMMC. But even still, it may violate nda's that they are signing. This is a massive issue that Bambu refuses to acknowledge.

He's asking if it can print PACF or PetgCF, you could've answered yes with an upgraded steel nozzle and an enclosure maybe needed.

P1P and X1C are amazing printers. I ordered my X1C w/AMS this morning. Got sick and tired of slow printing speeds even with a heavily upgraded printer running on Klipper.

If the AMS is on sale, I'll pick one up. The P1P i have is awesome already. I can't wait for them to make an XL version, I'm in day 1.
