Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about pen plotting on your Bambu Lab A2L.

Will pen plotting damage my A2L?

No. Pen plotting only uses X/Y movement at low speeds, no heating, no extrusion. The pen holder attaches to the tool head cover and movements are gentler than actual 3D printing. Many users plot for days without any issues.

What pens work with the A2L pen holder?

Our pen holder fits standard pens and markers: Sakura Pigma Micron, Staedtler fineliners, Sharpies, Stabilo, gel pens, and most pens with 8-12mm diameter. The spring-loaded design accommodates slight variations.

Can I still use my A2L for 3D printing?

Absolutely! The tool head cover with pen holder clips on and off easily. Switch between plotting and printing whenever you want, no permanent modifications needed.

What's the maximum plot size on A2L?

The A2L has a 330×320mm bed. Due to the pen holder attachment offset (28mm in front of the extruder), the maximum plot area is 330×292mm. Perfect for large posters, detailed maps, and impressive artwork.

Do I need any software besides 3DPlotter?

No. 3DPlotter is an all-in-one web app—create designs, generate G-code, and export. No Inkscape, no plugins, no command-line tools. Just your browser.

How fast can the A2L plot?

The A2L supports up to 500mm/s travel speed. Pen plotting typically uses slower draw speeds (30-60mm/s) for quality, with faster travel moves between paths.
