Starting the filament drying from Bambu handy or studio

Is it possible to start the filament drying process via the app or the studio? If not, it would be cool if Bambu Lab could implement this in the new version.
I would just like to be able to start the drying process from work.

Since you have to manually remove the filament for each spool before you can start drying, this will not work even if the software would allow it.

After that you can start it from the app or studio? Because i cant see any option for this.

I read about the new Beta Firmware for the H2D printer, that it will have an option for drying without rotating the spool. Hopefully this means that you don’t need to remove the filament for each spool before drying.
Perhaps this will lead to a future possibility to start dring from app or studio.

i already have this beta firmware and yes you have a extra option for spinning the spool but for now you cant control it from the app or studio ^^ maybe in the next beta firmware :smiley:

Okay, drying without a rotating spool is implemented in the current firmware.
What about drying via Bambu Studio or the app?
Will that be available in a future version?
I don’t see any reason why you can only start drying on the printer. Even if the filament is in the AMS, you can start drying on the printer.

I really wish this could be implemented in the app…

Would be great to see this as a feature in the app, often I want to dry filament while I’m at work, I’m able to unload via the app but not start drying which means I’m can only start printing the next day unless I start it before I leave for the day.

It would also be really cool and convenient if you could potentially schedule this function. Say let the AMS start drying the filament each day at 11:00PM (overnight). Having prompts that when this schedule was to kick off if an active print was in process you could skip that days schedule. This would only work no rotating options but something to hope for and think about from Bambu.

Hi all—just to confirm, is it only possible to start the drying process from the printer itself? I assumed I’d be able to activate drying directly from Bambu Studio, but I can’t find the option anywhere. It seemed like such an obvious feature, so I thought I was missing something… but maybe not!

If i can’t start driyng remotely. Idk what is the point of bying AMS 2 honestly. I’ve just tried it. Also if i open the lid to start drying and then if i have to open the lid to start printing again then my 42% wet german air will get inside at once. Honestly i could make a self-made improvement to AMS1 that would work much better.
