The Icon, Redefined.

The iconic Bambu Lab P1S revolutionized the 3D printing landscape. Its speed, reliability, and value quickly became the default choice for print farms and enthusiasts, creating the largest wave of popularity in the industry's history.

Building on that solid foundation, the evolved P2S now features Bambu Lab's 2nd-Gen technologies. It offers a user experience polished to the finest detail and reliably provides the top-quality prints only Bambu Lab can deliver.

The Icon, Redefined.

What Makes the P Series Iconic?

"I've been running P-series printers since the beta. The Bambu ecosystem feels like the Apple of 3D printing, with the printer, slicer, app, and cloud all working seamlessly. This lets me iterate faster and keep material costs down. My P1S setup and other P-series machines have been rock-solid for two and a half years, still running like day one."

The Duty Printer

"It shouldn't have worked, but it did! Mostly. Me being a moron, I forgot to support the MASSIVE bridge at the top. But the ole P1S just did it anyway! 280mm X 225mm frame with a 1mm width edge contacting the build plate."

"Since getting my P1S, I've been shocked by how easy it is to try new materials. My sister jokingly sent me a Crocs STL. I tried printing it with generic TPU, no adjustments needed. Twelve hours later, she's wearing a printed Crocs, claiming it's 'more comfortable than a real Crocs.' It's amazing how simple it was to go from an idea to a wearable print!"

"I've been running six Bambu Lab P1S printers for a few years now and they've been rock solid. They're easy to maintain and the print quality is always beautiful. I've been really impressed with how consistent they are hour after hour, print after print. For me, reliability is important, and these machines deliver every time."

"Well, today, my kid decided to tip over my workbench, and sent my P1S and AMS flying across the garage. The glass shattered everywhere, the front screen was destroyed, and the printer and AMS looked like they got hit by an RPG. I put the printer back on the workbench, plugged it in, and sent a print over to see how bad the damage was. Flawless, no issues with printing. I am truly amazed at the engineering of the P1S."

"The Bambu Lab P1S is an easy recommendation for a lot of different situations. For beginners, it's a streamlined experience that requires little effort or prior knowledge from users to achieve great results. For more experienced makers, it's a reliable machine that requires little input when you need a high-quality print quickly."

"All things considered, the combination of speed, quality, ease of use, and price point make the Bambu Lab P1S a highly recommended printer for anyone in the market."

"Right from unpacking, it's clear that this printer has been meticulously crafted, from design to protection during transport. The Bambu Lab P1S represents excellent value for money. Its competitive price, combined with solid performance and well-designed features, make it an attractive option for 3D printing enthusiasts."

Highlights

The Icon in Action

The P2S is the gateway to new lifestyles, giving you the effortless creative power to explore new possibilities. You want it, you get it!

The User Experience As Good As A Smartphone.

The P2S features a fully upgraded touchscreen and a powerful processor, running our new intuitive second-generation UI. Enjoy smoother interactions, richer graphics, and clearer step-by-step instructions.

5-inch Touch Screen | 2nd-Gen UI

70% More Extrusion Force & Real-Time Error Detection.

The PMSM servo extruder delivers up to 8.5 kg of maximum extrusion force—70% more than its predecessor—dramatically improves high-flowrate extrusion stability. Our proprietary servo architecture samples resistance and position at 20 kHz, actively detecting filament grinding and clogs in real time.

PMSM Servo Architecture | DynaSense Extruder

Print Smooth At Every Corner, Always.

The P2S uses a high-resolution, high-frequency eddy current sensor to calibrate flow dynamics. Intelligent algorithms actively adjust the flow rate based on these readings, provide precise, consistent extrusion across every layer and corner.

Active Flowrate Compensation | Eddy Current Pressure Sensor

Adaptive Airflow System

Perfect Overhang No Matter the Filament or Temperature.

Unlike traditional cooling systems that recirculate hot air, the P2S's Adaptive Airflow System draws in cool air directly from outside the chamber. This significantly improves cooling efficiency, letting you confidently print low-temperature filaments with the door closed—without worrying about overhang quality or nozzle clogs.

Cold-Air Intake | Cooling Mode

Adaptive Airflow System

50°C Chamber Ready For Engineering-Grade Filaments.

The P2S features a flap-controlled Adaptive Airflow System that efficiently seals heat within the chamber while actively filtering the internal air through a high-performance carbon filter. This allows you to confidently print demanding engineering filaments prone to warping, all while maintaining clean, safe air quality in your workspace.

Heat Preservation | Carbon Filter

Peace Of Mind, Everytime You Print.

The P2S introduces advanced AI computer vision that actively detects common printing issues such as spaghetti, nozzle blobbing. It also checks your print start settings, ensuring a safe and accurate start to every print job.

AI Error Detection | 2 TOPS NPU

30-Second Nozzle Swap.

The P2S features a quick-swap hotend design with a simple one-clip mechanism that releases the entire nozzle and heatsink assembly—no wiring disconnection required. This drastically reduces nozzle change time and eliminates the risk of wiring errors.

Quick Swap Hotend | 1-Clip Design

No-Lag Liveview & High-Quality Timelapse.

Enhanced LED lighting dramatically improves the clarity of your liveview video and timelapses. Paired with a high-frame-rate camera & Dual-band Wi-Fi, you can comfortably monitor your printer remotely and capture beautifully illuminated timelapses perfect for sharing on social media.

"Stage" Lighting | 1080P High-Rate Camera

Reliable for Fiber-Reinforced Material Printing.

P2S's extrusion system and nozzle are crafted from hardened steel, offering exceptional durability and wear resistance. Designed specifically for stable, long-term printing of high-performance fiber-reinforced materials.
