The buffer is equipped with two filament inlets, which offer the following advantages:
- Support for dual AMS connection: Two AMS units can be connected simultaneously.
- Flexible switching between AMS and external spool: When using an external spool for filament feeding, there is no need to remove the PTFE tube from the chamber inlet (as required for the X1/P1 series); quick switching can be achieved directly within the buffer.
¶ Q: What is the maximum number of AMS units that the P2S can support?
4 AMS 2 Pro units and 4 AMS HT units, totaling 8 units with 20 slots. Therefore, it supports a maximum of 20-color printing.

¶ Q: If purchasing an AMS 2 Pro for the standalone P2S, are additional accessories required?
Neither the standalone P2S nor the standalone AMS 2 Pro is equipped with a buffer suitable for the P2S. You need to purchase a buffer separately.
¶ Q: Does the P2S use a self-developed servo motor for the extruder motor?
Yes, the extruder motor used in the P2S is a Bambu Lab high-precision permanent magnet synchronous servo motor.
¶ Q: Does the P2S require an AMS to support filament tangling detection?
No, the extruder motor of the P2S is equipped with filament tangle detection.
¶ Q: What intelligent detection functions does the P2S have?
The live view camera of the P2S is equipped with multiple intelligent detection functions, including spaghetti detection, foreign object detection, nozzle clumping detection, build plate recognition, and silicone sock detection.
In addition, the printer has built-in various sensors to support filament runout detection, filament tangling detection, door open detection, and chamber temperature detection, ensuring safe and stable printing.
¶ Q: Does the P2S support dynamic flow calibration?
The printer is equipped with an eddy current sensor and supports active flow calibration.
¶ Q: Does the P2S support chamber temperature control, and how to control the temperature?
The P2S does not have an active chamber temperature function, but it can adjust the chamber temperature through a closed chassis and automatic switching between internal and external air circulation.
¶ Q: Why does the P2S no longer use carbon rods for the X-axis?
The X-axis of the P2S uses hollow steel rods, which have similar performance to carbon rods but offer advantages in maintenance. The surface of the steel rod is smooth, making it easier to clean attachments and more convenient for daily maintenance.
¶ Q: Air Filtration Effect
The P2S uses an activated carbon filter, which can effectively filter VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and particles generated during printing.
¶ Q: Why does the P2S eliminate air exhaust and adopt internal circulation filtration instead?
- The method of drawing cool external air inward is more efficient at cooling the chamber than using an exhaust fan. It is more friendly to low-temperature filaments such as PLA/PETG, allowing printing without opening the cover when the ambient temperature is below 30℃;
- High-temperature filaments (e.g., ABS) are more likely to emit toxic gases during printing and require more circulation filtration. Internal circulation filtration can maintain the chamber temperature required for high-temperature filaments while minimizing air pollution in the printing environment;
- Using an exhaust fan would result in higher noise. Since the external air intake fan allows printing without opening the cover (or door), the internal noise of the machine can be effectively reduced.
¶ Q: Product Cooling Function
The P2S is equipped with 3 fans in total: a part cooling fan located on the front shell of the toolhead, a hotend fan near the hotend, and an auxiliary part cooling fan installed in the adaptive airflow component. If you need to improve part cooling performance, you can purchase the Bambu Lab P2S-specific auxiliary part cooling fan and install it on the left side of the chamber.
¶ Q: If the screen printing on the heatbed surface is damaged, what impact will it have on the live view camera function?
The live view camera automatically calibrates position and angle by recognizing the silkscreen on the heatbed surface, thus avoiding detection errors caused by viewing angle deviations and significantly improving detection accuracy and image capture quality. If the silkscreen on the hotbed surface is damaged or obscured, the camera may not be able to correctly recognize the mark, resulting in calibration failure.
¶ Q: Under what circumstances is it necessary to calibrate the live-view camera?
Calibration of the live view camera is required when the installation position of the heatbed or camera changes due to replacement or maintenance needs, or when detection deviation occurs.
¶ Q: The P2S has no exhaust fan. Will this lead to insufficient heat dissipation and thermal creep?
While the P2S lacks an external exhaust fan, it does feature an adaptive airflow switching component that allows it to enter external suction cooling mode. In this mode, the auxiliary cooling fan draws cool air directly into the printer cavity, lowering the temperature and dissipating heat from the hotend and printed parts. Meanwhile, any remaining hot air in the cavity is discharged through the discharge assembly and backplate, where it connects to the outside of the chamber.
¶ Product Usage
¶ Q: What is the minimum space required for proper placement of the P2S or P2SC?
For best printing results, place the printer on a flat, stable work surface. Leave ample space: at least 4 mm on the left and right sides and at least 10 cm at the rear to ensure the rear tube, purge chute, and side air intakes function properly.
¶ Q: What are the recommended ambient temperature and humidity for using the P2S?
