Error Printer

  • HMS Error - Your Bambu Lab pritner has detected an HMS error. The specific errors are displayed when you hover over the printer card
  • Homing Failed - Printer failed to home. This is usually caused by a mechanical issue on your printer, or something is blocking an axis from reaching the endstop.
