#AMS It seems there's this sweet spot in the Bambu AMS where 1) there's very little filament in the spool 2) the filament pulls into the feeder below the opening and then 3) the printer wants to change filament. Since the spool roller itself is the thing that pulls the filament back, and it's no longer connected to the spool, it can't unload it. And since it's below the opening, I can't grab it and help it along. Eventually the AMS gives up and errors. While it's a dice roll as to when this happens, I've run into it four times already. The only thing I can do is disconnect the AMS, clip the filament just after it comes in from the outside, take the innards out and disconnect things until I can pull the filament out of the feeder. It's a design flaw that causes a low incidence problem, and it hasn't ruined any prints yet (since you can disconnect the AMS without the bed cooling off), but it's getting annoying. Anyone have a better solution - other than simply not using that spool if it even looks like it might happen? I love the ability for the AMS to switch to another slot with the same material when it runs out of filament, but in this scenario it doesn't think it's run out of filament. Hopefully someone in the community has something better than the extended AMS surgery I've had to do.
