Can I use my X1C to print with wax for creating ceramic molds? Specifically looking at Print2cast filament. Extrudes at 140C…

Welcome to the forum.
You won’t be able to use the AMS with Print2cast filament but it may be possible to print it from an external spool.

I’m trying to do the same thing but can’t find where to disable/change the minimum nozzle temperature to extrude.
Did you have any luck?
Never actually tried to print with it, the need to use wax went away. I may revisit, will let you know.
I ended up getting it to work and can confidently say itbis really cool, but diffiulcult to keep stuck to the plate.
Main trick is to add
M203 S0
to the filament start gcode in order to disable the cold extrude. Also have to manually heat up the extrude to temp off what ever filament was last in there and then manually extrude the wax filament through to push it out(probably common practice for anyone without an ams).
As far as getting it to stick the bed temp at 90C, lots of gluestick AND excessive brim loops with 0 brim separation. I used 15 loops to finally get a good benchy print.
I’ll upload my orca slicer filament/slicer config later after work in case others wind up here.
