I've been on the fence about purchasing a Bambu. But given the amount of time I've spent over the past few years having to tweak my ender 3 V2 and CR-10- I was leaning towards finally splurging on a X1C.
Question to those more familiar with the bambu software ecosystem - do these recent changes to authentication require a constant online connection to print anything from a machine on the LAN? I'm assuming printing via microSD will still be possible?

I’m not familiar with Bambu, I’m a Prusa user, but if I had to guess you would always be able to print via microSD. It would be wildly unpopular to disable local printing.

Currently, LAN mode and local SD card printing does not require an internet connection. I have my printer in a bottom of the yard bungalow, without internet, and it works fine.
