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:

  1. Turn off the X1C printer, using the power switch in the back
  2. Remove the MicroSD card from the right side of the printer's screen unit
  3. Using a MicroSD to SD or USB adapter (example 1, example 2), plug the SD card into your computer
  4. 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.
  5. On the first line, enter username= and then your email address
  6. On the second line, enter pin= and then your Polar Cloud PIN code
  7. When you're done, click save, and save that to the main "root" of your X1Plus SD card
  8. Plug in the SD card, power on the printer, and you should see your Bambu X1C connected in the Polar Cloud!
