Title: Bambu 3D printers start printing on their own overnight resulting in damaged parts and botched print jobs
Post by: Redaktion on August 20, 2023, 09:03:30
A cloud server error on August 15th caused many Bambu 3D printers to unexpectedly start print jobs at night, creating misshapen messes, damaging printers and raising safety concerns. The company has responded with an apology and explanation, and it has promised that the error is being fixed.

This is why I hate "everything must be cloud connected". It's dumb, anti-consumer and borderline criminal.

Not "must be cloud connected" only if you wish use cloud (for phone remote access etc.)

This is what you get when you trust closed source brands.

Who would have paid i,f from one reason or another, this would resulted in a house catching fire?

Before this, they had another "software" problem that caused some failing prints that destroyed lots of hotends. (The fail detector didn't work)

And another software problem that makes the onboard camera look like it's from 2002

A cheap open source printer using octoprint on a fully local network would never do something like this.

But hey! Bambu is a fast printer so you can brag about that quick 3dbenchy print :))
