Allow user to cancel filament loading from spool holder

Hello everyone,

I think there should be an option to cancel the filament loading from external spool.
I’ve been having the issue that I accidentally request my X1C to load the external spool by accident, causing the printer to get stuck in the “Push new filament into extruder” step in the load filament procedure.

Since I don’t see any possible way to cancel that procedure anywhere on the printer or the Bambu Studio/Handy, I am forced to manually switch off the printer and turn it back on to recover from that step.

I had this yesterday also where I needed to cancel because I had a clog.

I ran into this same problem with my P1S – nozzle stays heated at 250 degrees C until it eventually stops heating, but the printer is stuck at the “External filament is missing: please load a new filament” prompt, and there’s no way to cancel it.

Yes! For sure there should be a ‘cancel’ function other than turning the printer off by hand.

Click the ‘pencil’ of the ext spool. Then press the middle of the three buttons at the bottom.

Has this been fixed yet? I am still having this issue on a P1S as of July 2024 version 01.06.01.00.

I also have this problem. I just didin’t know what that ‘Load’ button does and expected it to load the filament from AMS. Now I am stucked without any external filament.

I think every “Retry” button should have a “Cancel” button brother.

Got scared a bit. (operating remotely)
Luckily, the target temperature eventually is set from 250 to 42 automatically. And somehow was able to cancel (I tried starting a calibration).

This is so annoying, how do we not have a fix for this yet? Every time I have to manually reset the machine.

Hello
Just got my P1S and also accidentally choose feed on the menu without external spool… And still no cancel Button.
I might say it should not be difficult to add such a possibility…

Just got the AMS and pressed load filament from external spool by mistake. Same thing, I’m stuck with no way to tell printer to stop. C’mon Bambu, this is nonsense…

This worked for me too.
I started a calibration and then cancelled it.
The printer returned to stand-by.
I could then start a new job.

Got stuck as well. Wasn’t able to find any “Cancel” button. Very sad :sob:

So annoying…! I had to reach something on the back of the printer…suddenly it starts loading filament…turns out it was of course trying to load the external spool where I am not currently set up, and I am not about to rearrange stuff just to load a spool then unload it…

A cancel button would be great…and should have been there already tbh. Starting a calibration did not work for me.

Edit:
Actually, calibration worked in order to cancel, I just had to be in front of the printer, not in Bambu Studio.
