Lidar scanning X1C & Web Interface
Hi,
Just received my X1C, was an upgrade from Flashforge 5M Pro. I am extremely happy, AMAZING !
Where is the Lidar file saved, i would like to review/keep for Quality Control ? is there a % pass for this Lidar scan and could this be shown on UI
As an aside, the only (literally) thing i feel is now missing from the X1C is a web interface, accessible from ip address. My use case is loading projects to the X1C when not at home (i have remote access to IP address)
Thanks in advance
Dumb question, but does anyone know how to make a new post? I’m using bambu lab x1 series and I can’t seem to post. Sorry in advance if obvious.

hi i have had my X1 carbon for aaround a week i love it, but something strange happend this morning there was an update, and a model i was about to print went from 1h45m to 3h21m, had a look at my settings but cant see anthing has changed little help please anyone ?
Looking for a way to contact warranty support outside of submitting a ticket.
Our X1-Carbon (7 months old) had a circuit board fail and the machine is completely inoperable so we were not able to pull any uploads from it which are required to submit a ticket. Even when going thru the customer service email and explaining this, the response was to submit a ticket with the print video and print log.
The software used for this forum is named Discourse. It works on the principle that forum users need to learn their way around here before they get “promoted” to the trust level that allows them to create new posts. This typically means you are expected to read the “main” Public Service Announcements or PSAs, read and reply on other stories, use the like button, use smileys, that kind of stuff. I myself am going through this phase as well, but have been there before so understood what was happening. Note you’ll soon get a suggestion to read about these trust levels here, and, if the BambuLab Forum Admins have kept to the defaults, you need to scan 5 topics, read 30 posts, and spend at least 10 minutes reading before you get to level 1.
Admittedly annoying if you have an urgent issue you want to ask people about, but, well, there it is.
Finding a post on a similar situation is usually a good way to get to the required level of trust, because that allows you to join a similar discussion, add your own experiences, and maybe helping to diagnose someone else’s issue. Check back and see the automated messages you get during this phase, the promotion is sure to turn up in a reasonable time.
Cheers,
Bert

Hello I got a new laptop at home so I reinstalled Bambu studio ok it but I cant login to my work account to monitor my prints as it asks for a verification code and I don’t have access to my work emails at home. Is there a way around this?
Thanks in advance
If I could have someone contact me from customer support. I ordered an X1-C and have been having a significant amount of issues. I received an email last night for assistance but it’s gone the wrong direction and it’s a little time sensitive. Thank you.
I’m using TPU for AMS to print tires for an RC airplane. The tires are rock hard. Are there settings which will soften the tires? IF so, please share. Thanks!
You can reduce infill or change infill type or both, reduce number of layers, reduce layer thickness. TPU for AMS is typically a bit more hard. Imagine feeding a rubber-band through a long tube. It’s hard to push from behind a softer filament than the approved TPU for AMS. You can manually feed TPU 85A to the extruder directly as long as you do everything possible to reduce resistance between the spool holder to the extruder gears pulling the filament into the hot end to extrude. Imagine a friend is the extruder, he is holding one end of the rubber band, you are the spool. Your friend runs across the room (acceleration) while also wrapping the band around his arm (extrusion feed or pressure advance) that stretch in the filament is a force acting against the traction the extruder gears can withstand before slipping. If they slip, the filament will under extrude the amount it slips. Grab a roller bearing filament dry box feed it directly to the extruder from the box. Reduce acceleration and print speeds as necessary. Check out Bambu’s help on printing soft TPU filaments and also check out some pre-made filament settings before buying a filament. 85A is still not really as soft as shelf bought RC tires FYI. They are made from rubber compounds.
Thanks Bert, no logging in and asking an immediate question 
I can’t see how to add a new topic so I’m adding my stupid question here.
What is the point of DRAFT MODE? When I slice in draft mode it uses more filament than “Standard” and only saves about 4 mins on an hour print. I’m using stock Bambu Lab slicer settings. It doesn’t seem like a worthwhile option. What am I missing?
