Bambu Lab Specific G-Codes

[AwesomeRaptor]

Will the Bambu Lab officials please document the Bambu Lab specific G-Codes are? I’m interested mainly in the X1C related codes, but suspect they are the same for all Bambu Lab printers.

So, what is the official company word on this?

Bambu Lab X1 Specific G-Code

Right now there’s no documentation from Bambu around what standard and non-standard G-code commands can be used on the X1 series of printers. As for the standard commands, this Marlin cross reference is great but please note that Bambu doesn’t implement all of it, and some things that are implemented behave a bit different than stated there. This will be a constantly evolving thread to document these until Bambu publishes some official documentation. Some things are certain, some things may be…

Also helpful is the “Placeholder List” from the wiki.

Right, I know that. I searched the forum. There is no “Official” documentation available. I am asking for the official word, not user guesses. Bambu Lab is producing the machine firmware and Bambu Studio. Therefore, they know the codes and have it documented internally. It’s time to put out a public document for the users to be able to make full use of the machines.

So, what about it Bambu Lab? Are you going to support the users or not?

While agree and have been the first one on the block to bitch about Bambu’s closed network library and closed firmware while speaking out of the other side of their mouth and benefiting open source from The RepRap and Prusa community et. el… Bambu want’s their cake and eat it too. We should be grateful that the thread in the link above hasn’t been taken down by the mods. I for one save that link from time to time on my cloud account just in case it one day disappears. But I doubt Bambu has an incentive to allow us too much insight to the systems innards. Besides, if they revealed too much, someone might be able to reverse-engineer their firmware which for them has been shown to be a no-go.

But hey, if more people had voted with their feet and purchased open source printers instead of Bambu printers, then competition would force them to adapt. We see this happening between Bambu Studio and Orcas Slicer to a much smaller degree when Bambu copies features from Orca which is just a forked version of Bambu, although in that case, it’s the war over who captures the users eyeballs, not so much direct revenue.

Thank you for taking the time to post an answer but … it appears you are not a Bambu Lab official and do not know the answers to the OP’s question. Why are you even replying to the OP’s message, essentially insulting his/her intelligence?

While you no doubt mean well, this is not helpful and indeed causes angst in the community, encouraging genuine enquirers to go elsewhere. Please refrain.

[Gimpers]

You haven’t been active in 7 months, decided to dig up a 6 month old post just to drop this steamer? And you didn’t even help the OP. Seems you should take your own advice.

@gruvin

Please refrain.

All I can say just WOW!!!

A well-respected member of this community, who was recently asked to step up to the arduous role of moderator by Bambu Lab and does so tirelessly on a strictly volunteer basis, adds their knowledge to the community and gets lectured for doing so? How does that work?

It would appear, my good sir, that you are under the mistaken impression that this community forum is run by the company. In case you didn’t notice, we rarely, if ever, see a Bambu employee post here unless it’s to promote something. Nope, just a bunch of us 3D printing enthusiasts trying to help each other out is all you’ll find here, I’m afraid.
