Move a Bambu Studio project to another printer
A project you prepared in Bambu Studio is tuned for your Bambu printer. To print the same project on another printer the machine settings must change, while your quality settings (layer, wall, infill, support, seam) carry your design intent and should be kept.
What happens with files from this source?
- Machine settings (G-code, bed, nozzle, retraction, speed/acceleration limits) are taken from the target printer’s Orca profile.
- Filament temperature, speed and acceleration values above the target hardware’s limits are clamped to the target’s limit; each clamp is shown in the report.
- Objects are moved to the center of the target bed; with several plates each object is shifted by its own plate’s offset.
- Between Bambu Lab targets (for example A1 and P1S) switching the printer inside the slicer may be enough; the converter is mainly for targets from other brands.
Conversion steps
- Drop the file onto the converter; the report says which printer the file was prepared for and whether it contains project settings.
- Choose the target printer.
- Convert and read the report; open the downloaded file in Orca and check the preview.
Frequently asked questions
Isn’t changing the printer in Bambu Studio enough?
Between Bambu Lab printers it usually is. When moving to another brand, Bambu-specific G-code and speed values stay behind; the converter removes them and writes the target’s profile.
Should I open the converted file in Bambu Studio?
If the target is not a Bambu printer, open the file in Orca or your printer’s slicer; Bambu Studio supports only Bambu printers.
