Updated FW to 01.08.00.00, now I can't print and can't downgrade

Per support, I updated my Bambu Studio to 2.0 and now the 01.08.00.00 firmware works on my P1S.

Yes, I had opened a ticket on this issue and they told me to update my Bambu Studio (in Linux Mint). So, I updated via flatpak from 1.10.1.50 to 2.0.3.54, reinstalled the 01.08.00.00 firmware update and all is good - my printer works fine again. I’ve been watching a video showing some nice improvements in 2.0, so that’s good, too.

Hello.
I have the same problem!
But. It happens when I print through Orkaslice. And when I print from Bambustudio, everything is fine.

Same issue with my P1S. I was printing just fine, including this morning. After this morning’s print job finished, I let it update the firmware, now it keeps giving me “Failed to get AMS mapping table”. The info on this firmware update says “Added support for AMS 2 Pro and AMS HT”. I think they borked support for other AMS models when they made this update. They had better fix this one quickly.

Just an FYI. I did the 1.08 update and yes same error. BUT it works if the spool has an RFID on it. Only spools that have NO RFI get "Failed to get AMS mapping table” I am suggesting this is a feature, not a bug, forcing you to use RFID reels. I will roll back to 1.07 FW also

I too have bricked my printer by upgrading to firmware 01.08.00.00. Luckyly I could downgrade using the phone app. I have tried 6 times now, all end with the printer not starting the print. Sometimes I get an AMS error on the display.

Tried opgrading my orca slicer to latest beta, but that too did not help any.

For now I will leave the upgrade be, untill I see a new version.

Can anyone confirm Shondoctor’s finding that printer with firmware 1.08 fails when 1) Using NON-RFID spools and 2) Sending from ORCA slicer?

I just did the update to v01.08 and had also an issue to start a print.
(just minutes before I finished a print successfully under version 01.07).

I could transfer the job, bed and nozzle were heated up as it should but from then nothing happened anymore. just a “freeze” - no printing, no movement… I had to cancel the job. I also tried several times, always the same behavior.

I could “fix” it by updating the bambulab slicer also to the latest version.
No downgrade of the firmware. Now v 01.08 is working.

this, just as a further information for someone how has also Problems.

cheers

I had the same problem. One of things I tried was manually loading from the AMS with the first Filament (non Bambu) that I was going to print, and sending the print from Orca, and it worked just fine.
So I’d say is a AMS loading issue.

And it seems the problem has been found:

“To make AMS mapping work on new firmware, the 3mf file must be updated with the new filament_maps property, and the network command with the new ams_mapping2 property. Otherwise the printer will stuck at the “preheating bed” step and won’t continue.”

FWIW, all 8 spools in my two AMS units were BL filament with RFID tags, and I was never able to get past the AMS mapping table until upgrading Bambu Studio.

That poster (noisyfox) is also the same guy who provided the private build of OrcaSlicer that resolves the issue.

With Orca dont work too. I try print few times

With Orca dont work too! I tried few times!

There’s a post earlier in this thread linking the github post with a working Orca. Probably best to just downgrade the firmware and wait for an official release, though.

I too back to 01.07.00.00

Hi,
I tried to search but I couldn’t figure it out.
Can you tell me what bug introduced the vers. 01.07 with the AMS?

I have a P1S that is updated to vers. 01.07.00.04
Yesterday I read this post and then I did a test.

I started a print and in the AMS I put two spools of original Bambulab gray Basic PLA

When the filament in the first spool reached the end, the printer correctly switched to using the second spool…

Certain color combinations get mishandled. For example green and black will get crossed up. There are others. It makes the system unusable. Works fine if all you do is load all spools with sane color. 1.07 is when they modded it to allow some kind of editing of spools while printing according to release notes. My suspicion is that code broke the original process.

Thank you very much, very kind

Latest 1.08 firmware on my P1S with original AMS and no issues printing with Bambu Studio.

I’m not updating my x1c because I use orca slicer and I don’t need additional ■■■■ in my system as an interface between printer and slicer. I was saying that and will say it again - give us back our “insecure” connection! Stop pushing your new ■■■■ on us!
