Just read about the new bambu Authentication control in the new firmware for the x1 series.
Its just a matter of time before it trickles down to their other printers as well.
I see this as a severe breach of the functionality of the machine that i bought from them. They are changing what i can do with my machine AFTER i purchased it with a specific set of functions.
The day this is forced upon my printer, I will return my printer to them and demand a full refund. If they refuse, i will sue them.
they have crossed a line with this and i will not tolerate it.
