First of all, sorry for my bad English. Nativ german here. But I will try my best.
Does anyone know if there is a solution to get Studio to run on a Chromebook?
With Cura there was the detour via the Linux developer environment to install it that way. Theoretically, a Linux version is also offered as a official download, but so far I have not been able to get it installed on ChromeOS.
You can install it like any other linux app if you have the linux VM enabled in your chromebook. Then just download the “AppImage” for ubuntu from the Releases page in the BambuStudio github page (I can’t include links in my post )
Had to get instructions from a Chinese made video with the Linux code was pasted in the comments in order to get Bambu Studio to work on a Chromebook. However, once opening it, it is asking for a network plug in to be installed and it doesn’t allow you to do that on the Chromebook so I can’t send anything to my printer. It appears all I can do is create and same to a micro SD card and then physically move them to the printer.
Yes I need to also run it on a Chromebook that is provided by my school des anyone know I need it to slice my switch pro prototype A button so no linux dev tools or linux tools at all
ive just ordered the a1, but think i might be cancelling if i cant use studio on a chromebook. the handy app is ok but nowhere near as useful as the actual studio
I also would really like this to be figured out. I have a Lenovo chromebook and it won’t let me use Linux. It seems like it shouldn’t be a significant jump to get the Android app working on a chromebook, since they are so adjacent in OS. It would be really helpful for my kid, who has a laptop for school, but yet is not old enough to get a phone yet. Please fix this!!!
I am in the same boat. So is the best way to proceed to get applmage? I have tried the another way from a page and bambu studio opens but says plug-in is missing. downloads but then nothing. I have zero knowledge of Linux. I am going to continue to learn about this, but if anyone has info that may direct me that would be appreciated.
Can someone help me also use Bamboo Studio for Chromebooks for schools? We have the Bamboo Lab A1 printers but the kids don’t have a way to design something.
@Dr_C thank you for responding to this. Over the years many teachers (and students) have posted here looking for a solution. So the students design the files on their Chromebook, then send them to you. Are you using a desktop computer and use Bambu Studio to send them to the printers, or manually on a thumb drive?
I have them upload their files to a Google folder I create for each assignment. I then will run them through the slicer. I will take them back to the print lab and let them see their prints and discuss how it’s being done. I have about 79 students me managing is key. We also don’t print out every design so selectibe in the projects as well as the criteria and constraints. Hope this helps. @oldschool3dprints
