Filament presets now unsupported? And transferring over profiles

Hi all, have added a H2C to my collection and have a H2S.

Question 1 - Now i’ve added the H2C all my filaments that I have calibrated previously are now “Unsupported”. Is this a glitch? Am I seriously unable to select these for this printer now?

H2S

H2C

Thats a joke if so.

Question 2 - How do I get my custom filament profiles from the H2S to the H2C? I spent a while perfecting the interface support settings, TPU settings, tree support settings so have loads of profiles for these.

Without having to manually copy and paste the info into new profiles, is there a way to simply copy them over? Nothing is obvious and glaring out at me on how to do that.

Again - ridiculous if you cant do that!

Many thanks
Daniel

Same issue here - no available custom profiles to use. Using Generic profiles so far.

If you go into the filament settings, under custom, you can specify which printer and nozzles can be used.

I am working now on this since two hours with KI help. There is no way to use my predefined materials for the H2C. It is annoying.
@Kevin5 : There is no longer any filemanet settings concerning printers or nozzles.
I am on Bambu Studio v 2.5.0.66.
The only filaments I can use with the H2C are the Bambu filaments or the GENERIC profiles.

Why can’t I change settings from an older SUNLU PLA+ to use it for the H2C?
When I open my json files they have “inherits: …entries that point to SUNLU PLA+ @BBL X1C or SUNLU PLA+ @BBL A1.
Those files are not there. (anymore?) So using those profiles means just using generic profiles with standard values?

The H2C is my most expensive 3D printer ever, but this experience is a nightmare!
I do not want to spend hours on making my own profiles files manually.

Not possible - or no longer possible? Read my next post..

In Bambu Studio you should be able to go into the filament settings and then add a custom filament if what you have is not in the list of profiles.

Did you figure this out yet for the H2C? Must say that I completly agree with you that it is pretty pathetic for such an expensive printer. not sure why I could not import the settings from my P2S for my Esun filament into the H2C (At least for the left nozzle)?? Let me know if you made any headway with this.

Same thing here. I just figured it was a bug in the early version of the software/firmware but nearly 4 months in I still can’t create custom filaments.

To be clear, I know how to do this and it still works just fine on my P1S. But once I switch to H2C everything but Bambu and Generic go away.

I have the same issue. I submitted a ticket and the response was basically, ‘it does not affect the operation of the printer and you can just create a new custom profile’.

Is there Something new since the last posts?

The whole filament thing imo is not very nice to use.

I hate it when I don’t fully understand something, but to me the whole process is a bit wishy washy. In the end I THINK I got it to work by going into the add remove filament part and added the h2c to the user preset for that material.

But does the k factor carry over? Do I have to calibrate the material again for that printer?

Only got mine yesterday so following on . It doesn’t seem to let you create anything and if you do it changes them all is save on generic Sunlu everything becomes Sunlu or the one you want is dimmed out so can’t be used

I had the same issue after accidentally installing the Beta version of Bambu Studio. My custom filaments showed up as “Unsupported” and couldn’t be selected anymore.

Installing the normal/stable version fixed the problem for me.

Bambu studio (beta) has a new management system for user presets

Anyone come up with a solution for this issue? I can’t get any of the third party filaments to show other than unassigned.
