What to feed the Bambu Lab P1S
Best filament for the P1S
Whatever the job asks for. This is where the Bambu lineup opens up: ABS and ASA join PLA, PETG, and TPU, because the P1S brings the warm, still air those families demand.
ABS and ASA, done right
The nozzle covers everything to 300 °C, and the 100 °C bed sits inside both families' 90-110 °C range. Two reminders from our notes: ventilate (the fumes are irritating), and check Bambu's current firmware guidance before running ASA through the AMS.
Where to start
Bambu's own PLA while you learn the machine. When something needs to live outdoors, Polymaker's PolyLite ASA is our first-ASA pick anywhere, and it's especially easy from inside an enclosure.

The Micro Center house brand. If there's a store near you, it's the cheapest reliable PLA+ you can walk out with today.
