Extremely slow downloads on printers

I have 5 printers, 3 P1S’s and 2 X1’s and theyre all downloading so extremely slowly and then timing out at like 80%.

I’ve checked all my internal network and all is fine. The upload to the cloud works fine but the download to the printer takes over an hour only to fail.

This needs to be fixed. Mods can this please be looked into.

I’m not alone then. After slicing, it takes very long time to upload and very long time to download to the printer. I’d say 60% of time it gets cancelled (timed out).

I also notice there is a new update for printer. I’m not sure if that’s related to this issue.

In my case, an identical situation will work 1 out of 10 print submissions.

Send works ok come on slow .

But plate print is unfortunately at this point works poorly.

Don’t forget to go on Bambu Handy (app) and clear all entries in History that says “Printing”.

You never know printer will randomly start accepting all those pending and print… Yikes!

And today is second day… Still a problem… Does Bambu Lab team know?

Update: found out my router’s 2.4GHz met end of it’s life. It was sending very faint signal that printer had trouble keeping up the connection. Changed router fixed the issue. Check yours. Maybe reboot router.

Can’t print all morning. Same BS. Uploads slow, downloads stall. I will just revert to SD Card. No excuse for this.

You are right, no excuse, what have you learned about your personal bottle necks in your system using 2.4GHz, and no I mean the computer/device not the printer

Had same issues, swapped to a mobile hotspot which had a slower internet connection where I was but the router connection between my phone and the printer was much stronger, downloaded the print file no problem.

Hi, this just started with me as well, all was printing fine when all of a sudden I get “There was a problem downloading a file. Please check your network connection and resend the printing job.” I have done speedtests no issues experienced. I have rebooted my Macbook, my router and my printer.

I’m now getting the same “There was a problem downloading a file. Please check your network connection and resend the printing job.” message when I try to send a print from my MacBook, but able to send from the Handy app on my phone or iPad which are all on the same wifi network. Any tips to get this fixed to print from my laptop again?
