Bambu Lab Setup

Requirements

  • Bambu Lab printer on the same reachable network as Printbuddy.
  • LAN access / Developer Mode enabled where required.
  • Printer IP address or hostname.
  • Access code.
  • Serial number when required by the local connection workflow.

Enable local access

Depending on printer model and firmware, local access may be called LAN mode, LAN-only mode, or Developer Mode.

Use the printer screen or Bambu Studio device settings to find:

  • Access code.
  • Printer serial/device ID.
  • Local IP address.

Add the printer

In Printbuddy:

  1. Add printer.
  2. Choose Bambu Lab.
  3. Enter name, IP/hostname, access code, serial number, and model.
  4. Save and verify the dashboard card.

Notes

  • Bambu-specific AMS, calibration, FTP, and local MQTT behavior belongs to the Bambu provider only.
  • If the printer connects but status remains unknown, double-check the serial number casing and any LAN access setting.
  • If camera access fails, test the printer network path first, then configure an external camera URL if needed.
