Bind Your Printer
Early Beta Implementations:
If you are an early tester of the Polar Cloud integration for X1Plus, you will have to enter your username and PIN into a file and store it on the SD card.
Later users should be able to add their printer to their Cloud account by scanning a QR code on the touchscreen, but that code is not ready yet.
To connect your printer, take the following steps:
- Turn off the X1C printer, using the power switch in the back
- Remove the MicroSD card from the right side of the printer's screen unit
- Using a MicroSD to SD or USB adapter (example 1, example 2), plug the SD card into your computer
- Using a text editor, like Sublime Text, Notepad++, create a new file. TextEdit and Microsoft Word will not work correctly! Notepad (Windows) might, but that has not been confirmed.
- On the first line, enter username= and then your email address
- On the second line, enter pin= and then your Polar Cloud PIN code
- When you're done, click save, and save that to the main "root" of your X1Plus SD card
- Plug in the SD card, power on the printer, and you should see your Bambu X1C connected in the Polar Cloud!
