If you only eat one bagel today, this is the bagel.
Summary
The article details a technical workaround for connecting FileZilla FTP client to a Bambu A1 Mini 3D printer. The author discovered that while the printer's FTP server accepts login credentials, FileZilla fails to retrieve file lists due to a specific FTP command (MLSD) that the printer doesn't support. The solution involves modifying FileZilla's configuration to use the older LIST command instead, enabling successful file transfers for uploading 3D models and downloading timelapse videos.
Key quotes
· 5 pulledThis printer offers a FTP server, allowing users to use FTP clients like FileZilla or WinSCP to upload model files for printing, and download timelapse videos.
However, when I tried connecting to the printer with FileZilla, I found that although the username and password were correct and login was successful, I couldn't retrieve the file list.
Some users mentioned that WinSCP works, but I use Linux daily and don't want to install Windows software just for this.
The solution involves modifying FileZilla's configuration to use the older LIST command instead of the modern MLSD command that the Bambu printer doesn't support.
After making this change, FileZilla successfully connects to the Bambu printer and allows file transfers for both uploading models and downloading timelapse videos.
