Bambu Lab printers take print jobs from other software only through Bambu Connect, Bambu Lab's desktop app for third-party tools (https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/software/third-party-integration). This skill opens a file in Bambu Connect, or an unsliced model in Bambu Studio; the user picks the printer and starts the print there. The agent never controls a printer and never asks for access codes.
Requirements
Bambu Connect (Windows 10 or later, macOS 13 or later), signed in to the user's Bambu Lab account, with the printer on that account or reachable in LAN mode (https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/software/bambu-connect). On Linux, where Bambu Connect is still in development, use Bambu Studio.
Choose the handoff
Open a file in Bambu Connect
Bambu Connect imports a file from a bambu-connect://import-file link with
three parameters: path, the file's absolute path, and name, the name to
show, each percent-encoded the way JavaScript's encodeURIComponent does it
(Python: urllib.parse.quote(value, safe="")); and version=1.0.0. For
/Users/me/prints/bracket.gcode.3mf:
Open the link with open "<link>" on macOS, or Start-Process "<link>" in
PowerShell on Windows. Bambu Connect comes forward with the file loaded.
Open a model in Bambu Studio
On macOS run open -a BambuStudio <file> (some installs name the app
Bambu Studio). On Windows open the file from Bambu Studio's File menu, or run
Start-Process <file> when Bambu Studio is the file's default app. On Linux run
bambu-studio <file>, or open it from the AppImage or Flatpak.
Finish in the app
Before the user presses Print, tell them what to check: the printer, plate type, nozzle, filament and AMS mapping, a clear build plate, and someone nearby for the first layer. Never report a print as started: the agent can't see the printer, and the app shows the job and its progress.
Out of scope
Starting, pausing or cancelling prints without the user, and reading printer
status: Bambu Lab's firmware takes those from other software only through Bambu
Connect, or in Developer Mode, which is LAN-only and disconnects the printer
from Bambu Cloud. For slicing, use $gcode or Bambu Studio.
