Thank you for this video. I just got my X1C, which is a HUGE upgrade from my 8 year old Dremel 3D20 dinosaur, and I was looking forward to the huge speed increases. I used to get annoyed at how long the 3D20 took to heat up and start printing (maybe 2 minutes) so I was sitting there saying WTF when the first few test prints on the X1C had it doing a 6+ minute startup sequence every time! I knew some of the features were important and didn't want to skip everything and this code is exactly what I was looking for!
Thank you very much. I have been running the "fast" start gcode almost exclusively now. Once everything is level/calibrated I like leaning into speed for fast prototyping or general prints. I just looked up the Dremel and at 8yrs old it looks like a solid device. I didnt even know Dremel made a 3d printer. 🤔
Love this printer. I'm spoiled. Though I could be more spoiled. Need the option to shorten the startup time further. Also, dunno about you, but the default amount of purge between colours is insane. Like utterly bonkers. I put it down to 10mm cubed and saw no difference in print. That's 1/6th of the default purge volume. I know Bambu wants to sell more fillament, but that's a really underhanded way to do it. :P
Hello thank you for the comment and feed back. Default purge amounts are very conservative. You can lower the purge amount though. Changing flush volume Shrinking prime tower Using "long retract" option(with lowered purge multiplier) ruclips.net/video/bbDqJAUEW9U/видео.html There is even a way to make a sacrificial part to take in purged filament too.(not shown)
Disclaimer: Use at your own risk While not my code I have uploaded what I used from the video to a google drive folder. I have been using this code for years. This is for X1 and P1 series printers. One for general printing and the other for Carbon filled filaments. drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lziqpspFfge2u2PNCMu0qfnCwx_13XeZ?usp=sharing There are other types too from printables( I havent tested these) www.printables.com/model/552489-bambu-lab-x1-carbon-fast-start-end-gcode/files
It will work on p1p and p1s. Some of the start stuff that the X1C does doesnt apply to the P1 series like lidar checks. So your time reduction may not be as much.
Thankfully, i dont care how long setup is because im retired and have nothing else to do. When your doing a 4hr+ print is 5min gona make or break someones day? The printer is 4X faster than 99% of the other printers they came from 😂😂 However i do understand that a production machine, over a year, would be the exception. Thx Ashley!
For 30 min + prints I agree. But on short and 1-5 minute test prints it's s real pain in the ass to wait 6-7 min extra every time. Heat up, cool down, wiggle wiggle heat up, wiggle, cool down, make some moves, vibrate bed, heat up, wiggle cool down, wiggle, heat up, make calibration lines at front of bed even though that's UNCHECKED, then pretend to look at lines a few seconds. EVERY DAMN TIME.

Great content as usual Ashley... Great channel!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching! I do appreciate at all the support.

I want the G code but I get an error message 404 page not found. Please where can I find this G code?

how is the printer in the logo supposed to work with two x-axes. Is it a 1D printer?
@@PunaJussi just an Ai fever dream. Lmao🤣
This only works on the X1C?

I 100% agree on running the full calibration for very long prints. A few minutes here or there is hardly an imposition. Thank you for your comment.
For 30 min + prints I agree.
But on short and 1-5 minute test prints it's s real pain in the ass to wait 6-7 min extra every time.
