The Bambu Lab PLA CMYK Lithophane Bundle is a specialized set of four PLA filaments (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Jade White) designed for printing full-color lithophanes using the CMYK method. The bundle enables the creation of photorealistic 3D images that reveal a detailed color scene when backlit.

Key features

The bundle contains four spools of PLA Bambu Lab Basic filament in precisely calibrated CMYK shades, complemented by the Jade White component, which acts as a light diffuser. The filaments are made of high-quality PLA with excellent color consistency and dimensional accuracy of ±0.03 mm. The material is easy to print, odorless, and does not require an enclosed chamber. Thanks to the precise calibration of pigments and translucency, the prints achieve realistic color reproduction when backlit, comparable to a printed photograph. The spools are fully compatible with the AMS system of Bambu Lab printers, allowing automatic material switching during printing.

Who is the Bambu Lab PLA CMYK Lithophane Bundle suitable for

The set is designed for creators who want to produce full-color lithophanes - backlit 3D images with realistic color reproduction. Ideal for personalized gifts, photographic portraits, art projects, decorations, LED panels, and light installations. The bundle will be appreciated by users of Bambu Lab printers with the AMS system, who value a ready-made combination of materials with verified calibration for CMYK printing. Also suitable for photographers, designers, and hobbyists who want to experiment with advanced multi-color printing techniques.

Printing tips

• To achieve fine details and true colors, use a 0.2 mm nozzle and a layer height of 0.08-0.12 mm.
• The ideal tool for generating STL files is Lithophane Maker - it supports direct conversion of JPG images into CMYK models.
• Before printing, thoroughly calibrate the flow rate and throughput of the individual filaments in Bambu Studio.
• To prevent warping, keep the bed temperature between 45-50 °C.
• Due to layer and resolution limitations, slight deviations between the original and the final print may occur.
• For the full effect, use an LED backlight board or a light panel with a diffuser.
• Store the filament in a dry place; in case of increased humidity, dry it at 55 °C for 8 hours.
• Load the filaments into the corresponding AMS slots according to the CMYK order defined in the slicer.
