Bambu Lab pushes multicolour printing even further with a machine unlike any other in its range: the Bambu Lab H2C, launched on 18 November 2025 from around €2,249 for the AMS combo in Europe. Its idea looks compelling on paper: instead of purging filament at every colour change, it includes six interchangeable hotends and a seventh as backup, to print up to seven materials at the same time without the usual waste. It addresses the biggest frustration of multicolour printing, and it certainly makes you want to see more.

On paper, it is the machine for anyone who wants fast large-scale printing without necessarily paying for the complexity of dual nozzles.

It certainly makes you want to take a closer look.
