Layer controls become available when the sliced job is ready.
The preview uses the printer’s sliced job.
A shaded representation of sliced extrusion paths. It is not a watertight CAD model or a live nozzle trace.
Waiting for speed mode.
Checking light support.
On while preparing, printing or paused; off when the print ends. Manual On / Off overrides this until the next print starts or ends.
Checking automatic light setting.
Cancel stops this job and requires confirmation.
Controls will become available when fresh printer status returns.
Ready when the printer connects.
Set the nozzle or bed target, or adjust part cooling. Apply sends your selected value to the printer. A target of 0 °C turns that heater off; the print’s G-code can change targets again.
Select a preset to see its nozzle and plate targets.
Sets nozzle and bed targets to 0 °C.

Inspect models, organise the next jobs and send reviewed sliced files to your printer.
Inspect and prepare an STL, slice it in Bambu Studio or OrcaSlicer, then upload the sliced 3MF to print.

Movement, filament, calibration and printer details.
Select Bambu Lab A1 mini under Settings → Printer → Maintenance movement profile, then Save and Apply. Enable this only for an A1 mini.
Waiting for a fresh printer report.
Check that the printer is idle and the plate and motion path are clear.

Waiting for axis control information.
Enable hold-to-move to repeat small steps while pressing an arrow.
Axis home state has not been reported.
Release stops new movement requests; already accepted steps may finish. X + moves the head right; Y + brings the plate forward; Z + raises the head. Camera orientation may differ.

Cleaning requires both heaters off and cool. Homing uses a separate readiness check and moves all axes.
Warm the nozzle to 170 °C and run the factory silicone-wiper path, then turn the nozzle heater off. The stock A1 mini wiper and a clear, installed build plate are required. Cleaning position above only parks the printer.
Waiting for nozzle-cleaning readiness.
External spool · A1 mini without AMS. Uses the printer’s own filament routine, which may heat the nozzle, move, cut and purge.
Waiting for filament sensor.
Choose the temperature recommended for the filament. Remain at the printer and follow its screen prompts to feed or remove the strand.
Waiting for the printer.
Move a small amount of filament through the hot nozzle. Use the material’s recommended nozzle temperature.
Waiting for extrusion readiness.
Choose the printer’s calibration routines to run. Clear the plate and stay nearby while it works.
Waiting for calibration support.
Waiting for the printer’s health report.
These settings are stored by the printer and apply to its other apps.
Movement, filament and calibration controls require a clear plate and motion path. Watch the camera and remain nearby. Reported status confirms only what the printer exposes.
Manage designs, recordings and images stored on the printer.
Files use a unique name to protect existing copies. Uploading does not start a print. Unsliced designs still need Bambu Studio.
Checking printer access…
Clear all filtered media removes every file matching the current search and media filter, across all pages, after reviewing the file list. System files, logs and folders are kept; this does not format the card. Exact card-wide free space is not exposed by this printer.
Choose a category. Blank passwords keep saved credentials.
Applying does not start or stop a print. File transfers and SD scans must finish first. Network binding, TLS certificates and service paths are managed on the host. Printer controls and Tapo image adjustments remain available on Overview.
