Is the Lidar flow calibration on my X1C working? All the Youtube videos showing the preprint calibration pattern is different from what I am getting. Attached is a photo showing what I have gotten on every print other than the very first one (which was the same pattern as everyone else seems to get). Any suggestions to get the standard calibration pattern would be appreciated. I am not sure what I am doing wrong as I did get it one time.
Thanks,
Steve
Something is unchecked possibly
Using the touch screen on your printer in the settings tab under print options is everything still checked except for the Cache cloud print files ?
Everything was checked except for:
I have now checked item 1 above and will try again but I don’t see how this would affect the flow calibration.

If it’s still not right try turning the printer off for about 10 seconds using the toggle switch in the back then on again
After you home the printer try the calibration sequence again
Neither one of these worked.
Sorry for the late reply back, I fell asleep
@cfrancisco1266 has made a very good point and observation (thanks for chiming in Fransisco)
You’ll get it and your frustrations are understandable, I’m a spaz and would be furious if it were me
You’ll get it, we just need to find why the calibration sequence is not launching, its not that it’s not working but rather that it isn’t even trying
The 3d printing Gods are messing with you
We’re far from out of ideas here but let’s first make sure everything is checked off before sending the print as Fransisco has pointed out
Only to close out another possible subject of failure: The original GCode for the printer is still in the preset?
What shows up on my print is exactly what shows in the preview. I only get the ‘L’ shaped line at the edge of the plate and not the calibration lines closer to the plate center. It seems something is hosed up in a configuration file or setting and so far, I haven’t been able to find where it is located or even see how I can fix it. It seems a number of things on this printer and software are hidden from view.

I have even uninstalled and reinstalled Bambu Studio in an attempt to resolve this issue. It didn’t change anything.
This doesn’t count completly 
Even a new installation triggers normally getting the settings from the cloud once you log into your account.
Only to be precise and sure - you used the stock presets from the slicer (meaning those that were intially provided by Bambu) and checked all checkmarks when sending to the printer?
If possible, could you post the project as a 3mf and the sliced gcode to check for one of your examples?
I used all the stock presets for the slicer and all boxes are checked. The only thing I have done is add some MatterHackers and 3D XTech filaments to the list but this problem existed before I added them. I tried to upload the 3mf file and the gcode but these formats are not able to be uploaded. At this point, I am thinking a support ticket is in order.

Ok let’s try this
How full is your SD card ?
You might try either a fresh SD card or deleting everything on the card that you are using
Those time lapse videos take up a lot of space and when you run out of space it needs to make room somewhere so if the SD memory is getting full the printer might automatically be omitting the calibration sequence
I clear out my SD every 5 or so prints
I have a print in progress so will check later. I doubt this is the problem as I didn’t even have an SD card inserted when the problem first appeared. Later I inserted and formatted an empty SD card and still had the problem.
Hmmmmm 
We’ll keep trying
After my current print finishes I will try to replicate your issue going by everything you’ve described in your settings
As difficult an issue to resolve that it is I’m sure the solution will have us quoting Homer Simpson with a “Doh” and a face palm L🤦♂️L
I don’t discount the possibility that it was something I inadvertently inflicted on myself and not even knowing it.
We’ve all inadvertently done that
You can try to upload them on Google Drive or similar shares.
I suspect that something in the GCode generation is derailed.
After my print was done, I did a bit of hunting and found the problem. In the Printer selection of Bambu Studio, I had selected ALL Bambu Lab printers. I deselected all but the X1 Carbon and low and behold, the proper pattern shows up in the preview. Thanks for all your help. Hopefully posting this will provide a guide in case anyone else experiences this issue. For the record, it was self inflicted and it was a simple fix. I have no idea how those who have both the X1 and P1P would handle this.
