Manual mapping for filament-to-hotend allocation

I searched a lot but found no answer. How can i allocate a filament to a right side hotend? There is a picture on the firmware page:

https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/h2c/manual/h2c-firmware-release-history

but i can not find this page on the printer. Grateful for any advise.

Hover the mouse above “Slice plate” and the pop-up to select custom filament allocation appears (most of the time) if an H-series is selected.

The dialog i am looking for is this one:

As i understand it can be found on the printer screen not in Bambu Studio. I think this allocation is permanent whenever the right filament and the right nozzle are installed.

Or if you mean on the printer itself, you have to start a print, then the “Next” button, and on that page you can select a hotend/filament using the “Right extruder” icon/button.

Found it. But i fear its only for the actual print file. I thought that i can combine a filament (i.e. TPU for AMS) with a nozzle (i.e. 0,6mm) so whenever i print with this filament the correct nozzle is automatically chosen.

Ah, yeah, that’s on the wishlist for many users, especially given as how the advertising strongly hinted at that feature. But as far as I’ve seen or read so far, there’s no way to make the filament ↔ hotend mappings “stick” beyond the current print session. And for “special” hotends, like for TPU or CF material, it’s still a manual process of keeping track because at this point there’s no way to tell which actual material was last used in a nozzle, besides the color (sorta). Not useful when all your “engineering” filaments are black.

Anyway there was a thread or dozen about that somewhere… oh yeah: Dedicated Hotends for Specific Filaments

Thanks for the clarification. Its a bummer that this is not possible right now.
