Booking a Bambu Printer Slot on ORB

Before using the Bambu H2D Pro printers, you must book an equipment slot on ORB.

Bambu printer slots are unsupervised slots for experienced users only.

Before You Come to the Lab

Before you come to the Lab, please make sure you have:

Booked an equipment slot on ORB
Booked the printer for the full length of your print
Named your print job with your Slack name
Checked your model and slicing settings
Messaged a technician in advance if you need support

For guidance on booking and cancelling slots, please refer to our Book your slots page.

Booking Rules

Your ORB booking must cover the full estimated print time.

Each print job must be named with the student’s Slack name. This allows technicians to identify the user if there is a problem with the print.

Print jobs may be cancelled if the user cannot be identified or if the printer is used without a valid booking.

Arrival Time

Please arrive at least 10 minutes before your booking so you have enough time to prepare your print, check the machine, or have your file checked if necessary.

If you need technician support, please message the technician 1–2 days before you need to print.

Walk-in support is allowed but cannot be guaranteed.

If you do not arrive within 15 minutes of your booked start time, the printer may be released to other walk-in students.

This helps ensure fair access and allows everyone to plan their fabrication time during busy periods.
