I pushed for getting an X1E for work, assuming the “Enterprise” meant it could be used in an enterprise with multiple people. Pretty disappointed that there isn’t a clean, secure way to share the printer.

I can see the reason many want this feature. However one reason I’m guessing as to why it’s not implemented yet is the rewards system on makerworld would need some serious changes to keep 500 accounts using 1 printer to farm points. It’s already a huge issue without that feature.

Bambu’s focus should be on making quality, usable, printers. Even more so if they want to sell to enterprise users. If Makerworld is interfering with that, then the MW points incentives should disappear.

Having the same problem here. One Apartment, one Printer, two people. Have to share an account now. Why ?

Sadly this, and a few other polish issues, are why Bambu will never get to the level Prusa is at. At our Makerspac, we have 2 Creality Ender 3s, 2 Prusa MK3s, 1 Prusa MK4, and an X1c. The X1c has inconsistent issues so no one will use it. And, even if they wanted to, only I can check it remotely because only I can login to it. So unless you’re near the printer, it’s just an expensive paper weight. Wont go into the other issues with it, but the lack of multi-user support is a big no-go for our 400 makers. And our people with print farms wont use them for the same reasons (mainly lack of multi-user). We are regretting our purchase with the x1c and should have gotten 2 more MK4s for the same price.
+1000000 Just got this and finishing calibration and me and my son cant have this on both our phones? What the heck.

I share the concerns of TJB, but maybe a solution could be if the printers serial number would get blacklisted from MakerWorld Reward System if any of the associated users breaks the rules.
But then still other potential issues exist like the limited bandwith of the camera or two people trying to interfer with the printer at the same.
If multiple user share one printer i would just share the account or use the local print features.

+1 me and my friend also buy an X1C with ASM.We wanted to operate the printer with multiple accounts but didn’t know that this wouldn’t work. I hope this function will come in the future, it would be very important for us and for the entire community, as you can see
We just purchased one for our company and were thinking about purchasing more, but if we can’t have multi-users, it’s going to be a deal breaker for our company going forward. Losing business from companies pushing $500 Mil a year probably isn’t good business sense, and a lot of them are looking for cheaper solutions like these these days.

Another vote for this. My wife should be able to use the printer without signing into my Google account.

+1 I share the printer with my son and therefore hope this function will come
I also would like to have multiple accounts at one printer. Or just a way to send the file about wifi with a way to get the bambu points for printing
+1 on this. Pretty surprised it doesn’t have it
Agree! Just got printer and can’t believe this lack of functionality.

X2 for this feature. It would be much better if my teenager and I don’t need to use the same account.
I mean it shouldn’t be a big deal to add this feature or sending prints about the wifi without having a account at the printer. Is there a statement from bambu for that feature/question?
Specially for those of use that use the X1E… Multi user is a MUST.
