Frequently asked questions
1. Can H2D be upgraded to H2D Laser Edition?
The H2D laser full combo has a built-in air pump and air pipe on the back of the printer, and is pre-installed with a BirdsEye camera. The front door, left and right side Laser Protective Windows, and top cover are all designed with laser protection. The packaging list includes a laser module, a cutting module, a smoke exhaust pipe and its adapter, as well as an emergency stop button.
We plan to launch a laser upgrade kit for the non-laser version of H2D. The upgrade kit is expected to be released in June and will also provide installation instructional videos to help users complete the upgrade smoothly.
It is important to note that the air pump in the upgrade kit is an external air pump, which has a different installation structure from the built-in air pump in the full set. When using it, it can only be installed externally and connected to the machine through an air tube.
2. Are the left and right hotends exactly the same?
Yes, the left and right hotends have identical structures and materials, and can be used interchangeably.
3. What is the maximum number of AMS 2 Pro and AMS HT units that the H2D supports? How many colors can it print at most?
The H2D supports a maximum of 4 AMS 2 Pro and 8 AMS HT connected simultaneously, a total of 12 units with 24 slots.
Because H2D is a dual-hotend printer, and in the most extreme scenario, all AMS can be connected to one hotend while the other hotend uses an external spool holder, it can support up to 25 colors.
4. Is H2D compatible with first generation AMS?
The first-generation AMS has been confirmed to have full plug-and-play compatibility and can be used with the H2D for multi-color printing, but it does not support the AMS drying function.
Due to the fundamental differences in the feeding mechanism and buffering structure, the H2D does not support the AMS lite.
5. AMS 2 Pro is directly connected to the printer through the 6-pin ports, so what are the two 4-pin ports on the back of the printer used for?
The two 4-pin ports on the back are reserved for future expansion accessories. For example, to upgrade a non-laser version of the printer to a laser version, one of these ports can be used to connect an external air pump.
6. Can I use the A1 series Hotend on the H2D? Conversely, can H2D hotends be used on A1 series printers?
Although the hotend of the H2D series is similar to the A1 hotend in structure, it is not exactly the same.
The H2D hotends are specifically designed for the H2D printer, offering optimized compatibility. For example, they support a larger maximum volumetric flow rate, lower clogging risk, more precise nozzle offset calibration between the left and right hotends, and automatic hotend type recognition via the live camera. Therefore, to ensure optimal print quality, it is strongly recommended not to use A1 hotends on the H2D printer.
Therefore, to ensure you get the best print quality, we strongly recommend that you do not use the A1 hotend for H2D printers.
Purchasing additional H2D hotends for use on A1 printers is feasible. However, you will also need to use the H2D hotend silicone sock.
7. What are the differences between the 10W and 40W laser modules? How should I choose?
Both the 10W and 40W laser modules are blue light lasers that support processing a variety of materials, including wood, rubber, metal sheets, leather, dark acrylic, and stone. However, due to differences in power and size, there are the following distinctions:
- Maximum cutting thickness (For Basswood Plywood):
- 10W laser module: 5mm
- 40W laser module: 15mm
- Maximum engraving speed (For Basswood Plywood):
- 10W laser module: 400mm/s
- 40W laser module: 1000mm/s
- Processable Area:
- 10W laser module: Maximum processing area X310mm * Y270mm, maximum processing height 280mm
- 40W laser module: Maximum processing area X310mm * Y250mm, maximum processing height 265mm
8. Is a USB included as standard? What functions are affected without a USB?
The package does not include a standard USB flash drive. You can still initiate printing normally without a USB, as the printer has built-in storage space to run print files.
However, without a USB inserted, the following functions will be affected:
- The recording and time-lapse photography functions can’t be turned on
- Printing cannot be initiated through the LAN
- Print files cannot be sent to the machine for storage through the studio
- Log files cannot be exported
USB requirements: USB2.0 protocol or above (actual minimum write speed needs to be greater than 10M/s), supported file formats are FAT32 and exFAT. And the printer only supports mounting one USB, and cannot connect multiple USB via a USB hub.
9. Why can’t I freely select hotend for printing with the printer’s built-in files?
The hotend to be used for printing has already been determined when the model file is sliced. As for the built-in models, the right hotend has been selected during the slicing process, so it is impossible to change the hotend used for printing on the printer screen.
When you slice the file in Bambu Studio and send the print task, you can freely choose to use the left hotend or the right hotend. For some filaments, such as TPU and PPS/PPA-CF, it is recommended to use specific hotends for printing.

FAQ
1. There is an independent power port on the AMS 2 Pro in addition to the 6-pin port. Is this necessary?
When the H2D is used with a single AMS 2 Pro, all functions, including automatic feeding and drying, can be utilized without an external power adapter.
When the H2D is used with more than one AMS 2 Pro, if some AMS 2 Pro units are used for multi-color printing while others are used for filament drying, then the AMS 2 Pro units used for drying require an external power adapter. The external power adapter can be purchased from the Bambu Lab official store.
2. Can the X1 Series and P1 Series printers use AMS 2 Pro?
X1 Series and P1 Series support AMS 2 Pro, if only the automatic feeding function is used, only the 6-pin cable is required, and no external power adapter is needed. However, if you need to use the drying function, an external power adapter is required for the AMS 2 Pro.
The AMS 2 Pro is compatible with X1/P1 series printers for multi-material printing. The filament drying feature for these older generation machines will be fulfilled through an OTA update by the end of April.
AMS 2 Pro compatibility with A1/A1 mini printers will be added through an OTA update in Q3 2025.
3. Can AMS and AMS 2 Pro be used at the same time for printing?
Yes, you can use both AMS and AMS 2 Pro on one H2D.
4. Can I dry filament while printing?
Currently, drying is not supported for AMS 2 Pro/HT that are actively involved in the printing process, including those that may be used for automatic refill during the current print job. Printing while drying is not yet supported.
The only “dry while print” scenario currently supported is: the printer uses some of the connected AMS 2 Pro/HT units or an external spool holder for printing, while the AMS 2 Pro/HT units not involved in the current print job can be used for drying.
If the printer is feeding or printing, and at the same time powering 1 AMS 2 pro for drying, the drying power will be automatically reduced, in order to ensure that the printing power is prioritized. So it is recommend to use the external power adapter for best drying results.
5. Can I get power from the printer for drying?
The H2D printer supports powering one AMS 2 Pro for drying directly from the printer. If you need to dry filament in multiple AMS 2 Pro units simultaneously, the additional AMS 2 Pro units require power supply via a power adapter (purchased separately).

FAQ
1. What is the difference between the two discharge ports on the back of the machine?
The port at the rear of the top cover is specifically for TPU filament. Due to the softness of the TPU filament, it is easy to fail when using the AMS 2 Pro automatic feeding function. When using the TPU, insert it into the AMS HT and ensure the material tray rotates in the correct direction. Insert the material tube into the TPU output port and manually push the filament through the PTFE tube until it is fully loaded into the extruder.
Note: When using TPU, AMS HT cannot use the automatic feed and return function, but can be used as a drying box to prevent material moisture.
2. Can the AMS HT be used with the X series and P series printers?
AMS HT compatibility with X1 and P1 printers will be added through an OTA update by the end of April.
If only connecting one AMS HT to a X or P series printer, a filament buffer is required to be purchased separately. If connecting multiple AMS HT units, we recommend that you purchase an AMS Hub.
AMS HT compatibility with A1 and A1 mini printers will be added through an OTA update in Q3 2025.
3. Can I print and dry at the same time?
Printing while drying is not yet supported, including all the AMSs that are related to the on-going print job (eg. The AMSs assigned for auto-refill). However, you can dry filament in AMSs that are not assigned to the on-going print job.
4. How many AMS HT units can be connected to the X1 series and P1 series at most?
X1 and P1 series printers support up to 4 AMS HT connections at the same time.
5. Can the AMS HT be directly connected to the printer for drying?
H2D and X/P/A series printers are connected to AMS HT and use drying function. Each AMS HT requires an external 220V power supply for drying. It is not supported to draw power from the printer for drying (The power adapter is pre-included with the product package).
