SimplyPrint

Which printers work with SimplyPrint?

By far most 3D printers work with SimplyPrint. The general rule of thumb is; if your printer works with OctoPrint / has a way to plug in a USB cable, it'll work with SimplyPrint. Check out the compatibility list to see if your printer(s) are on the list of known supported printers. If your printer isn't on the list; fear not, we might just not know about it.

Is it secure?

Yes. We do everything we can to make SimplyPrint as secure as possible - we take the responsibility that comes with handling something as sensitive as your 3D printer, very seriously. As the case often is, the weakest link is usually the user's own account, which is why we've gone all-in on features that can help you keep your account safe. The option to enable 2-factor authentication and get emails on login from unknown devices, paired with login-attempt spam detection helps us notify you - should anything be out of the ordinary. Furthermore, our servers are hosted with providers known for be

Does my print stop if the internet connection is lost?

No, your print won't stop if your printer / Raspberry Pi loses its internet connection. SimplyPrint downloads the GCODE file to the Raspberry Pi so it's stored locally, and therefore won't be affected by your internet being down.

Can I still print through USB or OctoPrint, Mainsail, Fluidd, and use my own slicer?

Yes , yes and yes. SimplyPrint doesn't restrict you or your printer in any way. So if you still occasionally start a print through OctoPrint, Mainsail, Fluidd or from the SD card slot, you can still do so - and SimplyPrint will even still monitor your print, and show you the progress. You can also still keep using whichever slicer you prefer - you're not forced to use the SimplyPrint slicer (even though you'll be missing out! ;)) This also means, even if SimplyPrint goes down (which is very unlikely, we have a 99.99% uptime ) , you will still be able to interact with your printer in the old fa

Can I run multiple printers from one Raspberry Pi?

Yes! It requires a bit more setup than the normal 1-printer-per-Pi setup, though. If you're up for it, you can easily run between 2-8 printers from a single Raspberry Pi (4B, 2GB ram). Check out OctoPrint Deploy .
