Only last week I decided to give the AMS a go, I’ve been single filament printing for about 7 years now so wasn’t in a rush to set it up on my new A1. Anyway, although I seem to have 2 colours set up in studio and 2 colours on the arms, when I click print, it does the whole job with one colour and the same one colour on the tower…I’ve now spent 2 days trying to get the printer to SEE 2 colours and now I’m getting to the stage where I’ll stop attempting to use the AMS. I must have missed something but I don’t know what…any suggestions please? Thanks, Nige
This is a screenshot of a simple round 20mm disc. I put it into studio and painted a different colour dot in the middle. I then sliced it ok and I downloaded the Gcode, sent it to the printer after I set the AMS up with the same 2 colours and had no warnings at all on the screen, clicked print and all I keep getting is a white disc, no dot in the middle…
Did you assign the red a location in the AMS! and then link that spot to the filament in the AMS?
Thanks for the help Rob. I’m a total newbie to multi colour so know zero. I have just done a shot of the Prepare box, but as to your ‘Link’ in the AMS I’m lost
I changed the red to pink
Did you choose use AMS at the printer? I print over the network but there is a “Use AMS” checkbox in the workflow. I’m wondering if that was missed by transferring the gcode manually somehow.
Use AMS…I don’t know how to get to it?
