Having problems getting Prints to start

Greetings Gentle folk of the forum
I seem to be having some problems printing on my P1S.
When I get to the screen where you select the Filament, I get the PLA box outlined in red with a red circle and an exclaimation mark !
What do you think is causing this problem?
I took a picture of the error message but the forum doesnt seem to allow pics

Cheers

Oh yeah when I click on the error, A little box pops up that says
Upper half area: Original
Lower half area: Filament in AMS
Then unerneath the box it says in green:
Not satisfied with the grouping of filaments? Regroup and slice →

Sorry I should have put this detail in the OP
Any help would be appreciated

I am unsure if you understood the problem, but you seem to be in the Bambu Studio “Synchronise AMS Filament Information” window.
Your issue seems odd, as I think the filament grouping strategy relates to the dual nozzle printers, not the P1S.
Before trying other changes, I suggest that you uninstall Bambu Studio, reboot your OS, and reinstall a clean version.

That indicates your model has a PLA filament selected, yet it believes your AMS or external spool (depending on which you are using) is not set as having PLA filament attached.

Take a look at the printer and set the filament to PLA assuming it is your filament of choice.

If not, you need to select the correct filament and assign it to the model in Bambu Studio.

mmmm I was scrolling through the menus and for some reason I appear to have 2 AMS units attached to my printer! Like WTF? The screen informs me that I have an AMS and an AMS PRO attached to the printer, but PHYSICALLY, I only have the AMS PRO. Maybe this is what is confusing the pea sized brain in the printer? If so, how do I get rid of my ‘Ghost’ AMS?

Resetting the AMS IDs may help.

Scroll down to the rest section.

Just in case Santa came earlier, you may with to check if the extra AMS is under a seasonal tree!

You never know.

I had the same problem. I didn’t 3d print for a long time and my account logged out so all I needed to do was to log back in and the problem got fixed?

Ich habe das gleiche Problem.
Habe erfolgreich die Filamente des AMS mit den voreingestellten synchronisiert.

Auch ChromeOS wurde schon aktualisiert, Bambu Studio neu installiert und mein Account neu eingerichtet. Alles hat nicht geholfen.

Der Fehler trat plötzlich auf und seit dem bleibt Bambu Studio nach dem Print Befehl im bereits gezeigten Bildschirm hÀngen. Es tut sich nichts mehr und das Programm kann nur noch abgebrochen werden.

Thank you! I logged in from my work PC and couldn’t figure out why I was getting this error when trying to print. Signed in and it synced with my re-synced with my printer and allowed me to print.

Hi, I started printing around xmas time and I have the same problem but I do not have a AMS. I also noticed I can send prints perfectly fine off Bambu Handy but I need to size a print up for my dad and I can’t adjust the model from Bambu Handy. If anybody knows how to help I would highly appreciate it very much.

Thanks, Gabe!

Scaling a model is a CAD or slicer function. Handy is neither.

Use Bambu Studio.

I;ve done that and still getting the same error?
Both my PC and printer control panel are set to Generic PLA but the error persists.

Can you share another screenshot?

Press the down chevron next to the swatch warning indicator.

It will show what your AMS has installed, at least what the printer thinks it has.

This is where you match the colour selected in Bambu Studio to those available in the AMS unit(s).

The sane information is available in the device page.

And the insane information? That’s what I’m looking for! :zany_face:

I would like to say that was a typo, but I imagine it speaks to my psychology.
