I’ve been using my Bambu P1S Combo for roughly 2 Months now and have been loving it. I liked its User Friendliness, Speed, Quality and Reliability so much, that I wanted to get a second P1S Combo for all Multi colour stuff and then go on to try the A1 Series for Mono Colour Prints in a planned small Size Print Farm…

Needless to say, Bambu shit the heatbed so hard with its recent changes that I can no longer support them, leaving me to wonder what printers hit the same Notes that I liked and mentioned above.

One Printer I’ve been curious about since I joined this hobby was the Ankermake M5. If what I heard is true, then it would make for the perfect Monocolour printer as it would allegedly hit all above mentioned points… especially considering I could go for Refurbished models for half the price, only 260€ which seems endlessly enticing…

Thoughts? What are some other options? I especially could need a reccomendation for an enclosed Multi Colour Printer with P1S quality… as for price wise I am very open and flexible honestly. I’m kinda just curious what options there are in general nowadays!

Unless it’s ideological, you can still use the Bambu, they’ll be releasing a “developer mode” which is LAN only and enables direct communication with the printer.
