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!

Unrelated to the question, but the capitalization of the seemingly random words in the title is interesting. I am going to guess you are a programmer and typically capitalize class or variable names out of habbit and that leaked slightly into the title of your post.

Nope! I am German and we Capitalise loads of Words. Combine that with me feeling better seeing some words just be big (Think of how Youtuber Capitalize every Word in thier Video Titles)! So Overall, really I just go off Vibes~

For a farm, Prusa will be the most reliable imo.

I’m out of the loop on Bambu shitting the bed?

I kinda always dismissed them outright for my own use because they seemed like the kind of company to go always online DRM or some other bullshit.

I had kinda assumed they always were?
I guess the cloud stuff was “optional” before.
In a way, I’m kinda lucky I misunderstood at the time.
