Print Profiles using "Print by Object" Function in Slicer

Problem: Publishing a profile for A1 Mini including the print by object feature, will only publish it for a few printers not ALL bambu printers like w/o the feature.

So I did some research with AI and testing, to make everyone in the bambu universe happy you need to publish 6 different profiles…

“Print by Object” Profile Summary

Profile # Sliced For (in Bambu Studio) Covers (Auto-Selected on MakerWorld) Why it needs a separate profile
1. Classic CoreXY X1C P1P, P1S, X1, X1C Shared clearance perimeters across the legacy enclosed flagship line.
2. New Gen CoreXY P2S P2S, P2, X2 Features a new, compact PMSM-servo toolhead with altered collision parameters.
3. Standard A-Series A1 (Mini) A1 and A1 mini (if objects fit), A2L too Shared toolhead profile, restricted strictly by smaller bed bounds.
4. Large H-Series H2D H2C, H2D… due to the massively scaled up 330 mm Cartesian bed coordinates.
5. Dual Nozzle Series X2D X2D Only Extra wide dual-hotend toolhead requires massive clearance margins to prevent crashes.
6. Enclosed Large Format H2S H2S Only Heavy-duty enclosed build with specialized high-temperature servo path clearances.

Feel free to comment / add etc.

Sometimes I wish there were a question‑mark emoji we could use as a reaction - not to be rude, but simply to say: I’m not quite sure what the poster is trying to tell us, and it feels like some context might be missing. :grin: :+1:


Side Quest: What the ████ are those links in the chart? :laughing:

fair point, I added some context, hope it is clear now :slight_smile:

And that’s why I avoid print by object. I’ll add 6 more build plates vs turning on print by object. Not worth it.

The reason this is important is that instead of uploading a single print profile you have to upload multiple profiles which means:

  • more work to create them
  • more potential for mistakes
  • more files in keep in sync when changes are made
  • more test prints

It’s a problem that Bambu Lab could improve with additional smarts on Maker World or the slicer. One example would be to automatically separate objects onto different plates rather than just saying it isn’t printable because of space concerns.
