trying to print text as separate color

i have a BBL CarbonX1 printer. i use Bambu labs studio to slice and print. how do it do multi colored prints from onshape? does it do 3mf file format? here is my design link. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/1b2334f64fdeab39273dd5fd/w/775f7a1924c3657b805385e8/e/d2052cb25bee05799d6925dc
what i want to do is have the text infilled so i can print it as a different color…The cap is black. the text is gray. but i want the text flush with the surface of the cap…does this make sense?

Hey @Grompy989,
Have look at the link, I have recreated the model but instead of cutting away material I have created new bodies. You can just export all of the bodies in one .step export. Then you can assign different materials/colours to each of the bodies in Bambu Studio.

You could also try to give this custom feature a go, seems a bit easier to create a new body that intersects with your part to do a boolean operation to remove material:

Any questions, let me know.
