In this Bambu Studio beginner tutorial, we are looking at one of the most important habits you can build before hitting print: checking the Preview tab.
The Preview tab helps you inspect your first layer, supports, walls, infill, seams, color changes, filament usage, print time, and possible problems before the printer ever starts.
If you have ever skipped the preview and came back to a failed print, this video will help you know what to check first.
