Here's a list of some common questions about the X1 series of printers, if you want to know more exclusive X1E questions, please check out the Wiki X1E FAQ.
¶ Is the heated chamber of the X1 series actively heated?
No. The chamber temperature increases based on the temperature set for the heated bed and cannot be precisely controlled.
¶ Is the filament buffer needed for single filament printing? (For X1 or P1 Series)
When printing with a single spool of filament, the buffer is not needed, since the filament spool itself can be considered as a 'buffer'.
¶ What kind of maintenance is expected for the X1/X1C?
The X1/X1C doesn't need a lot of maintenance. Here's a link to a complete list of parts that can be consulted in this link
¶ How to export the log file to a NEW support ticket?
Yes, third-party slicers are supported, but they are not compatible with some functions of the printer like First Layer Inspection and AMS. We strongly recommend using Bambu Studio for the best print results.
Yes, the X1 is slower, mostly because of the cooling capabilities, and mostly for PLA. Printing fast requires good cooling and the X1C can do it with the integrated auxiliary fan. Upgrading the X1 with an auxiliary fan can improve printing speed.
¶ Is it possible to add an additional auxiliary fan for better cooling to the X1C?
The design of the printer is relatively compact, and there is not enough space to add a secondary auxiliary fan. The top glass cover can be opened to achieve better cooling.
¶ Is the LED light needed for the AI stuff to work?
