How far Bambu pulls back before the cut
When the AMS changes spools, the cutter cuts the filament at the head. For some spools Bambu Studio first pulls it back, so less molten plastic waits in the nozzle. Pick yours.
Work it outWhat the presets say
26 spools retract before the cut. All by 18 mm.
Nylon fibre and TPU spools do not. Bambu PA6-CF and TPU 95A have no long retraction.
It saves purge. The plastic pulled back is not flushed on the tower.
