RE:
rmmmh, I am not sure about this but they have only a few punches left in the prosumer and consumer market if they don't level up quick.
Some things are true, the print quality is some of the best, it can put some predictability in a workflow and it is not a chinese company with ties to a communist government required to comply with intelligence agencies. Not a tin hat moment, just common knowledge.
I like the slicer better. Feels nice to use.
But they truly need to make this indx system the best, it need to handle hotter temp or as hot as 65 degrees FAST and it needs to be enclosed or we are going back. It would be a shame if they do otherwise. I am not interested in printing coloured trinkets. Maybe I am asking too much of this platform and I need to save my $ for an INDX22 v4?
I will start looking for alternatives, I presume bondtech is going to sell this system to another company as well, and it might be to invest in a different printer system, open source maybe? I really do not know but I am not sold on this INDX gen just yet. Looks promising but we will see. I cannot justify buying it unless they really kill it with this release.
100% agree.
What's very interesting about the Bambu ecosystem is just how often they make you agree to their EULA. It's every time you logon to anything of theirs... anything.
Moreover, they are currently preventing people to downloading the latest firmwares for their printers, thus causing people to get antsy and use the Bambu Handy app, which get's really upset when you block functionality in IOS, for example.
I have the printers setup so that they are LAN only and blocked at the boarder firewall. Huge concerns with IP theft.
Still... they blow the crap out of the Core One when it comes to multimaterial. The issues with the MMU3 and the core one integration were awful by comparison, as was the technical support for it. For now, the H2C is the go to for multimaterial and a non-industrial printer (don't get me wrong, I have ~2000 hours on the H2D upgraded H2C unit I have , and I had over 1000 on the core one, but I'm not sure I consider the H2C truly industrial.)
INDX has to shine out of the box to be an contender... the growing pains of the Core One need to not happen with the INDX.

Does https://bambulab.com/en/support/firmware-download/h2d not work for you? I just tried, and 1.03 seems to download just fine.
