Hi everyone, Since I wanted to use some of Bambu Studio’s slicing features, I developed a compatibility package using vibe coding. This allows Bambu Studio to configure the U1 for slicing and enables direct printing over a local network. I’m a programming beginner, so there may still be some bugs. Feel free to try it out, and I’d also welcome anyone to fork this project for further development.

I hope this project doesn’t die out before people get the integration they want into the Bambu Slicer. Unfortunately, I’m not a programmer and can’t contribute from that side. ---

Hi everyone, The compatibility package has been updated with a bridge server that connects Bambu Studio to the printer. Feel free to try it out and report any bugs to me. Thanks ---

Hi, I’ve tried installing the package and Bambu Studio detects it just fine. I’m able to add the Snapmaker U1 without any issues. However, when I start the Bridge Server, I get a Windows Script Host syntax error: **Error:** 800A03EA Has anyone else run into this problem or knows how to fix it? Thanks ---
**Author:** ![VItasG](https://avatars.discourse-cdn.com/v4/letter/v/d78d45/32.png) [@VItasG](https://forum.snapmaker.com/u/VItasG)\ **Post date:** [June 18, 2026, 12:24pm UTC](https://forum.snapmaker.com/t/snapmaker-u1-bambustudio/41966/10 "2026-06-18T12:24:14Z")
This is a BUG. **Root cause** : The expanded `$nodePath` contains parentheses, which VBScript does not recognize. **`800A03EA` is a VBScript syntax error** , occurring in the `start-hidden.vbs` file. The issue is in `\[install.ps1:370\]` ```powershell $vbsContent = @" Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run """$nodePath"" ""$bridgeDst\server.js""", 0, False "@ ``` PowerShell’s here-string expands the `$nodePath` and `$bridgeDst` variables. If the path contains **parentheses** (e.g., `C:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs\node.exe`), the expanded VBS content becomes: ```vbs WshShell.Run """C:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs\node.exe"" ""C:\Program Files\Bambu Studio\bridge\server.js""", 0, False ``` VBScript parses the parentheses in `(x86)` as **function call syntax** , causing the `800A03EA` syntax error. **Root cause** : The expanded `$nodePath` contains parentheses, which VBScript does not recognize. **Scope of impact** : - Users with Node.js installed in `C:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs\` (32-bit installation or certain NVM configurations) - Both `install.ps1` and `reinstall.ps1` have the same issue (lines 370 and 404) **Fix direction** : In VBS, concatenate the path using a variable to avoid parentheses appearing directly in the `Run` parameter, for example: ```vbs Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Dim nodePath, scriptPath nodePath = "C:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs\node.exe" scriptPath = "C:\Program Files\Bambu Studio\bridge\server.js" WshShell.Run """" & nodePath & """ """ & scriptPath & """", 0, False ``` Alternatively, use `WshShell.Exec` / `cmd /c` to start indirectly. ---

I’ve already tried to fix it. You can download the latest version from GitHub and run the reinstall command. ---

This was caused by the bridge not starting correctly. The solution provided by AI was to downgrade Node.js. **Problem Analysis** **Root Cause: Line 354 of `install.ps1` calls npm incorrectly** Key code: PowerShell ```auto $npmCmd = (Get-Command npm -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) ... & $nodePath $npmCmd install --production ``` On **Node.js v26.4.0** , `Get-Command npm` resolved to `npm.ps1` (a PowerShell script) instead of the traditional `npm.cmd`. As a result, the actual command executed became: Plain Text ```auto C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe "C:\Program Files\nodejs\npm.ps1" install --production ``` Node.js attempted to parse `npm.ps1` **as a JavaScript file** , but the first line was PowerShell syntax: `Set-StrictMode -Version 'Latest'`. Naturally, this resulted in a `SyntaxError: Unexpected string`. The npm dependencies were never successfully installed (the `node_modules` directory was empty). When Bridge started, it could not find dependencies like Express, and thus could not listen on the port. ## **Solutions (Choose One)** ### **Solution 1: Manually Install Dependencies (Fastest)** Open PowerShell as an administrator and run: PowerShell ```auto cd "C:\Program Files\Bambu Studio\bridge" npm.cmd install --production ``` Or use directly: PowerShell ```auto & "C:\Program Files\nodejs\npm.cmd" install --production ``` After installing the dependencies, Bridge will start normally. ### **Solution 2: Downgrade Node.js to LTS Version (Recommended)** **Node.js v26 is an unconventional version released in October 2026** , with changes to how npm is packaged. It is recommended to uninstall v26.4.0 and install **Node.js v22 LTS** : 1. Uninstall the current Node.js v26.4.0 2. Download **Node.js v22 LTS** from [https://nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/) 3. Re-run `install.bat` ### **Solution 3: Explicitly Call `npm.cmd`** Call the cmd version of npm directly in PowerShell: PowerShell ```auto npm.cmd install --production ``` Executing this after switching to the installation directory is more reliable than `node npm.ps1`. * * * **One-sentence Root Cause** : On v26, `Get-Command npm` returns `npm.ps1`, and the script uses `node.exe` to execute the `.ps1` file. Node.js does not recognize PowerShell syntax and throws an error directly. Using `npm.cmd` (a batch wrapper) bypasses this issue. ---

It’s working fine for me right now. Currently, this compatibility package automatically retrieves the device’s IP address via a script. Could you check if the retrieved IP differs from the actual device IP? I’ll see if I can adjust how the IP is obtained. In the meantime, you can try reinstalling to see if it picks up the wrong IP. I think I can add an option to manually modify the device IP. Under normal circumstances, the compatibility package should display the device IP and show that it is connected. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/snapmaker/original/3X/3/c/3cd219313468564140d0541276d82ac67e0f2aa5.png) ---

basically what i was facing is that i can slice the file i can see the file converting the plate into U1 plate but i cant upload because the IP address was wrong by 1 number. it was suppose to send to 240 instead of 241. the weird thing is that the live view function works even though the ip was at the wrong address. ---

The slicing feature does not rely on the device being connected. A proper device connection is only required when data transfer or device operations are involved. Feel free to report any bugs to me. ---
