Bambu AMS lithophane guide
Bambu AMS simplifies CMYK lithophane filament changes. This guide covers spool order, 3MF import, and backlighting finished panels.
AMS loading
Load cyan, magenta, yellow, and white in slots matching your slicer mapping. Dry filament matters for consistent transmitted color.
Bambu Studio import
Open the exported 3MF, confirm plate orientation, and review the color timeline. Run a small test swatch if colors drift from preview.

FAQ
- P1 vs X1 for lithophanes?
- Both work. Focus on calibration, dry filament, and even backlighting rather than model differences.
- Can OrcaSlicer replace Bambu Studio?
- Yes for many users. Import the same 3MF and verify toolchange preview.
