Where is silent mode?

Bambu Lab X1 Series Bambu Lab X1C

Hi, all.
I have just started playing with my new X1C, and spent HOURS reading this forum. I’m sure to have many newbie questions…Pls be ensured that I won’t ask unless I have spent some time looking already…
In a number of posts I see reference to “silent mode”, Crazy mode" etc. Where are these settings? I can see nothing obvious on Orca slicer, Bambu lab, or the LCD display on the printer.

Same as @Warmup said and it is on the screen during printing, there is an icon showing speed, press that and choose between the different speed options including silent.

Thanks to you all. Like many things, well hidden until you know it’s there, and then it’s obvious. My main interface until now has been Orca slicer on my PC, and I see it’s there as well, now that I know what to look for. But only changeable while printing…doesn’t that upset the flow? For example, my Sunlu filament has different temperature ranges for different print speeds. Do you guys find that speed changes during printing affect quality at all?

Hi,

Is it there a way to do this directly from bambu studio, or just phone app and touch screen?

In studio, devices, you should see a speedometer looking thing. Click that, choose silent

Thanks for that! I didn’t know either, and that is not intuitive…

Thanks, that make sense, same spot as in the touch screen. I was looking in preview settings.

Thanks. Having the setting under Temperature wasn’t helpful, nor was some unrecognizable icon followed by 100%.

i set it to silent because I was getting horizontal color banding where filament switching took place. I attribute it to each layer having longer to cure while the filament was changing, purging, cleaning and tower building was taking place.

My hope is that making it all slower might make that color change (Darker in a horizontal band where filament change was taking place. Exactly the size of the 6" toy Chameleon’s eyes were. I am now printing the 8" papa from the same plans. :wink:
