PLA-CF won't stick to any surface

Bambu Filament and Accesories

Received my X1C recently and I’d like to print with the included roll of PLA-CF. But I can’t get it to stick to any surface. I’ve tried the high temp plate, textured plate, engineering plate. The only one I haven’t tried is the cold plate.

I’ve been printing lots of PETG and PLA with the printer on the engineering plate and textured plate. Once I got things figured out I have had no problems printing these materials, but I can’t get the PLA-CF to stick.

Any suggestions?

Use the textured PEI plate. Set the bed temp to 65C and hit the plate with a bit of glue (or aquanet, if that’s your preference) - you’re going to want that on there both for adhesion and to help with releasing it at the end.

If the warning that pops up with a bed temp of 65C gets annoying, just change the vitrification temp for pla-cf to 70C.

Thanks, that did the trick.
