Connect X1E to stand-alone computer

Bambu Lab X1 Series Troubleshooting
1

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing an issue connecting my Bambu Lab X1E to a standalone PC (that’s disconnected from the internet). The X1E is connected directly to the PC via an Ethernet cable.

The Bambu Studio successfully recognizes the X1E.
However, when attempting to connect, the process starts but then fails to complete.

Has anyone encountered this problem before, or have any ideas on what might be missing in the configuration?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Until you find a solution (or someone else help find it), you may want to print your files from your SD card.

At the very least, a direct Ethernet connection (no router), will require manually assigned IP addresses and subnet masks for both the X1E and the Ethernet adapter on the PC.

Section 3 here should help with the X1E.

I did this, and it allowed the printer to be recognized by the computer and software, but it still fails to connect to the printer.
