> Also Bambu the company mostly is fine, but there's some worry that they'll eventually lock people into using only their filament, but doesn't seem to have happened yet. So buyer beware.
replyI'm not sure how Bambu could actually do that. They use RFID tags to identify their filament type/color. I taped a tag from a used roll to some prusa filament and the printer couldn't tell the difference.
Just in case, my Bambus are LAN only and don't get updated. I use Orca Slicer instead of the Bambu slicer.
Go the HP way. May be throw annoying errors based on the expected amount of printing a filament with a particular tag is supposed to last.

They could write to the RFID how much filament "it has left".
replyBambu can't even keep their filament in stock, plus they ship the printers with multiple preloaded profiles for other filament vendors. I don't foresee them making that change any time soon.
