You can print out a small QR codes and glue them on your plate for Lidar to recognise it.

Mine arrived yesterday and is doing its first print now. Plate type was available in the menu, and for PETG HF the default plate temp is 70.

Yes its in the menu of bambu studio but the machine is not reading the plate. So you have to turn off plate detection on the machine.

I cannot find where I can do that. I see an ā€œenable detection of build plate positionā€ and it is enabled on my machine (and seems to be working fine).

New supertack showed up yesterday, none of my X1Cā€™s are able to detect the QR code. It looks like the QR code is really light colored on both plates. Current firmware and BS.

Tried to print on them twice with ignore and both failed for adhesion issues. go figureā€¦

You have to turn plate detection off and use supertack plate in bambu studio.

Mine works fine with plate detection on and printer firmware 01.08.02.00

I tried with a roll of original PETG in my AMS. My AMS has extra desiccant holders that I printed, and humidity is at 10%. The regular PETG also wonā€™t stick to the super un-tack plate. I have no idea whatā€™s going on.

31

Im having same issue in 3 printers. Im thinking its due to the lettering on all other plates being white and the new plate is dark lettering and printer cant read it on x1c

32

Same. Even cleaned per bambu instructions on wiki. Open a ticket

33

We shouldnt have to with a banbu factory plate.

34

Ditto. Also tried cleaning the super tack plate with soap and warm water. No bueno.

Tried cleaning the supertack plate with soap and water, turned off pate detection and Bambu PLA matte fails to stick to it. Does Bambu read any of these? Or do we all just open tickets?

36

I opened a ticket, providing a video of the first layer not sticking and pictures to boot. I imagine that the more of us who file tickets, the quicker support will communicate the problem to Bambu leadership.

The Markers are for the SuperTack plate is the same as the original Cool Plate, the problem is that the code is in the wrong spot on the new SuperTack plates. Iā€™m assuming that this can be fixed either in the X1C firmware, or it could be in the start Gcode. I printed out a Cool Plate Marker onto some sticker paper and placed it directly over the Bambu logo (as shown in the image) and it worked perfectly. Blows my mind that a simple issue like this wasnā€™t caught before they were mass produced and shipped out to customers.

I think the adhesion issues weā€™re having has something to do with the slicer and whatever code was written for the supertack plate for the x1 and/or P1. The plates seem to work just fine on the A series printers.

After a few failures with the actual supertack plate I switched to my cryogrip plate and used the supertack plate setting, same exact failure. Seems to be printing too high off the plate and nothing would stick. Switched it back to the textured plate setting with the cryogrip and it worked perfectly.

The supertack plate works perfectly with my a1 mini, just canā€™t get it to work with my x1.

Thereā€™s definitely something weird going on here with how many of us have issues. Where thereā€™s smoke, thereā€™s fire.

Can confirm, was having adhesion issues with PLA, followed the steps listed (selected textured PEI plate, turned off build plate detection) and it worked like a charm. Seems to be an issue with how the slicer sends the plate info for sure. Thanks for testing/sharing.
