In this guide, we will present the steps required for printing from the Micro SD card used by the A1 series 3D printers.
The Bambu Lab A1 series of 3D printers does not have a hot swappable card.
This means that every time when you remove the Micro SD card, it is very important to safely eject it from the menu, by following these steps:
The micro SD card can now be removed from the printer. Simply press on the Micro SD card then release it, to eject it from the printer.
On your computer, open Bambu Studio and import the model you wish to print, then follow these steps:
Once the file has been sliced, the model preview will be shown.
A prompt will show up allowing you to select where to save the file.
When the Save prompt appears on your computer:
Important. Do not save it in any of the folders seen on the Micro SD card. It should be on the root of the SD card.
Next, remove the Micro SD card from your computer, and insert it into the printer Micro SD card slot
With the file sliced and copied on the Micro SD card of the printer, you can start the print.
To do so:
On your computer, open Bambu Studio and import the model you wish to print, then follow these steps:
Once the file has been sliced, the model preview will be shown.
Select the printer you want to send to in the pop-up window and click Send.
Important. It is strongly recommended to wash the print surface before starting the print.
This will ensure the highest chances of success for the print, and will minimise the chances of a print failure due to adhesion.
