“Expired Certificate” - P1S won’t print
——
Solved!…. Well… changing the date back on my PC back a month prevents the error from popping up and allows me to print again.
Am I seriously the only one running into this? If anyone knows how to update this certificate thingy so I can keep the proper date on my PC, I’d love to know!!!
Is this a windows requirement or a Bambu requirement?

Hey folks!
A new issue popped up yesterday and I’d love to get it sorted out ASAP. Also curious if anyone else has ever seen this before.
High level:
When I open Bambu Studio, I immediately get an error message pop up that reads “The certificate has expired. Please check the time settings or update Bambu Studio and try again.”
I am able to click “OK” and then open up whatever project I was working on. BUT, when I go to connect to either of my P1S printers, I get another pop up message that reads “Unknown error. [0502-400C 151515]”. I can only “x” out of that window. Then everything seems fine again. UNTIL, I go to send the print to the printer. The progress bar goes for a bit then I get two more pop ups reading “Unknown error. [0502-400C 151815]” and “Internal error. Please try upgrading the firmware and Studio version. If issue persists, contact customer support.” and I cannot get the job sent to the printer.
Details - likely important.
- I am running in “LAN only” mode and always have been.
- my PC (Windows 11) is has been disconnected from the internet since the initial BS install (I believe I had to in order to download the network plugin).
- I’m on Bambu Studio v2.7.1.57
- both P1S printers are on v1.09.01.00
- I have never logged into a Bambu account
- my printers are connected to the PC via WiFi from a router that is Ethernet connected to the PC but disconnected to the internet.
- Everything has been working flawlessly until yesterday - about 3 months of uninterrupted printing.
Any ideas?! What is this “certificate” and how and why does it expire? How can I renew it? Have you seen this issue? How did you fix it?
In a perfect world, I’d like to maintain my little printer “island” and remain disconnected from the internet entirely. All print files come over to this computer from a thumb drive.
Thank you!
Edit: I suspect I’m in a pretty small camp of “offline” 3d printers. But there must be someone else out there who has their P1S printing without an internet connection. I was thrilled to configure this offline setup to be able to print wirelessly - transferring via sd card is a PITA! Maybe my luck has ran out and I’m the only one with this thick of a tinfoil hat.
