I have a BL P1S and I am trying to print a job. However, I am getting a message that says the printer is busy. How do I go about cancelling or clearing this message and getting back to printing?? Thank you in advance for any and all help I can get.
Open a new Bambu Studio window, it will trigger both instances of Bambu Studio to update to the latest printer status, you can close the second instance after the update. Alternatively, close Bambu Studio and re-open it.
This can also happen if you change the filament from the front control panel and navigate away from the change-filament menu. If you missed it, there is a prompt that says “done,” and you have to click on it. However, if you navigate away from that submenu, the printer will wait until you confirm that the filament has successfully loaded. The problem is that once you leave that menu, the message is covered up. Meanwhile, back at the slicer, it will tell you that the printer is busy but not why.
In my opinion, this is one of the severe shortcomings or actual bug in the P1 menu layout; Bambu cut a lot of corners. For example, we should be able to read the HMS errors in plain English back at the slicer, yet Bambu refuses to address this, forcing us to stand at the limited text console panel trying to read the scrolling text with the error code. Clearly another example of them exercising the Chinese business philosophy of Chabuduo(just close enough). Their crappy monochrome P1 interface panel isn’t slowing sales so why change it?
