Hello First time purchaser of a 3D printer. I used to use one at my previous job alot and finally decided to take the plunge in for personal use. However, upon trying to set up my printer it wanted a QR code which I was able to bypass and do the benchmark print. However, in order to connect to my phone i need to use the QR code but my phone refuses to read the QR code mainly due to how small it is on the screen. Is there another option besides using a QR code to link my 3D printer to my phone and such? or am I up a creek without a paddle?
I think if you link Bambu Studio with the Handy app they will sync…if both accounts are the same.
I had this issue today when setting up my new mini. Spent like 10 minutes trying to get my phone to read the code. Turning on the flash helped it focus enough to read it. They definitely need to make the QR code bigger.
Had the same problem, too. The code is too small and tiny on that mini display.
Hey Bambu Lab support: Maybe you can ad an option to the firmware to show QR-Codes full screen on the whole display! That would make setup etc. much easier.
saludos comunidad. Acabo de estrenar esta maravilla de maquina pero tengo problemas con el software. Como puedo salir de la pantalla de imprimir para escanear el codigo QR?
Pido disculpas. acabo de entrar con una pregunta en una linea de respuestas
I have the a1 and can’t find the QR code on the printer screen.
LAN only mode is disabled.
Just want to connect mobile app over cloud with my printer.
No QR code shows up
I have a similar issue. The QR code keeps spinning with the notice that it needs to refresh and it never loads to be clear enough for the app to read it.
Is there are workaround to bind the printer so it will register on the app or studio?
How did you solve the issue?
turn on the flash/light . its hard to see at the bottom of the screen. it fixes it
OMFG - I was in the QR hell. Had to:
On my router - had to give the printer access to the router, then in the BamBu Software:
Register/Log in - computer software
Register/Log in - iPhone
THEN Bind the two on the phone
THEN the QR magically showed up
I could scan and bind all of therm together. SHEESH!
I dicked with this for about an hour - how about some simple instructions y’all?
Get your head out of your Bambu
Good afternoon.
First post here and owner a brand new A1 Mini!
What a fantastic little machine.
Anyway I had the same issue with the QR code and found the solution after a few minutes of frustration (and reading here):
Pinch to zoom in on the Bambu App and it registers immediately!!!
Happy printing.
Where are you seeing the QR code? Bambu Support told me it was under Account on the printer screen but it doesn’t show one… it just shows the username for the account.
Welcome to the forum.
The screen should look like this
Here are the instructions to follow.

If you have already gone through the setup process it won’t show the QR code. Log out of the printer and it should run you through the setup again.
As soon as the camera turn on blow up the qr image it ll take you straight to the mounting step.
