Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D
SW42@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoYes and no. It‘s about being able to select Special Materials from the Printer After loading to be Synced with the slicer. Happened when they extended the materials range.

2 mouse clicks and I can tell the slicer what filament and color is where on my AMS lite. If you are running a print farm and swapping filaments constantly, that’s maybe one thing. But I have 2 printers, only one of which is a Bambu. And the one spool of Bambu filament I bought demonstrated very clearly to me that the RFID tag is not worth any money to me.

Good for you! Everyone is different. It’s nice to be able to sync the filament I set when loading it to the AMS. That isn’t possible with the updated firmware if I use anything other than Bambu Studio. That’s why I haven’t updated and thus have missed out for instance on the TPU for AMS as my current firmware refuses to let me print TPU from the AMS period.
I don’t think one can reasonably defend a company taking away options from users that have already bought the product. What bothers me is the reason they used was demonstrated to be complete BS.
