gcode upload via wifi

Hello,

Do you have a YouTube or other training video on how to properly work with BambuLabs Printer (I have X1C and A1 Mini)? Your site says S3D supports those printers, but I tried taking gCode from S3D and uploading it to the printer, it seems like the printer only speaks .3MF files. How do I create those files in S3D? On top of that, it looks like you have to interface with the printer through BambuStudio, just to upload the .gCode (if it worked). Why would you use S3D at all if you need BambuStudio anyway?

I've read many posts and asked questions too. Every time we are told S3D staff use Bambu Labs printers in the office. Good!

PLEASE SHARE HOW? Sneaker net using micro SD is not an option for me. I need to transfer or use Wi-Fi.

Thanks
Tom

Re: gcode upload via wifi

As you mentioned, you can already export the gcode files created by Simplify3D and then copy them onto the SD card. That allows you to use all of the slicing features in Simplify3D, but you just start the print directly on the machine.

If you want to transfer via wifi, there's other threads on the forums explaining a few of the options like this one:
