Bambu Lab Experts: I'm having trouble reprinting a .gcode file...
Posted on 1/13/25 at 7:08 am

My filament options are missing from the print screen so I can't select which one to use. Here's what's happening in a nutshell:
- Sliced the file in Bambu Studio
- Printed the .gcode file with no issues.
- Moved on to another file/print when it completed.
- Found out I need to print the previous file again (Etsy store sales).
- Loaded (dragged/dropped) the .gcode file into Bambu Studio.
- I get this error message without knowing how to move forward.
- Sliced the file in Bambu Studio
- Printed the .gcode file with no issues.
- Moved on to another file/print when it completed.

Why are you saving just the gcode? Save the 3MF project file, which will store gcode, that way you can update settings based on what you learn as you progress your slicer abilities later.
gcode is the machine code telling the printer what to do. You have to manually go into the gcode to change filament settings, like in Notepad++, not the slicer. It's not your project file that you can manipulate in slicer. It doesn't have a copy of the model file to reslice, it is purely the commands for the printer to perform the printing.

cause that's what i've always done...?
put .gcode file on SD card and select print from the printer (Ender 3 style). i just thought i could do the same thing from my PC over wifi since that's how i thought it was supposed to work.
but i'll take a look at the 3MF stuff and see how it works.

You can do the same on bambu, put the gcode on an SD and take it to the machine and print from there.
With Bambu, you save the 3MF instead of the gcode since you are sending from the slicer. 3MF can save all your print settings, the gcode, the model file, any painting you do if you use multi material. It saves everything about the print. gcode is just the machine commands.

yea your P1S needs to know which filiment settings to use.
I get your problem but it isnt apples to oranges. your gcode does have your hotend temps and bed temps so the P1S could print it if you put the gcode on the printer. but if your sending it via Bambu studio you need to reslice the model with your printer settings.
