Will the Bambu A1 3D printer use filament from other 3D printers? I'm a teacher whose Makerbot died. I'm going to purchase another 3D Printer that can print multiple filament colors at the same time. CNET recommended this as the best overall printer, and from what I've seen, I'm sold!
Yes, all Bambu Lab printers are considered compatible with a wide variety of materials from other, non-Bambu Lab branded filaments! As long as the filaments are 1.75mm in diameter and have a melting point within the Bambu Lab's maximum hotend temperature of 300 degrees Celsius, then you should be all set.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us at sales@matterhackers.com if you have need for any additional clarification. We'd love the chance to speak with you more about these materials, the Bambu Lab A1 3D printer combo, and your projects!
