💌 Feature Request: Printer management #35

Open
opened 2026年02月25日 15:18:10 +01:00 by Tzig · 1 comment

Why do you need a new feature?

More and more printers have network connectivity, mostly to transfer files and start prints but some printers have some more advanced options too. Resin printers being more messy/toxic usually means them being further away from living areas, remote management through SoulCrafted Slicer would make it user friendlier.

Proposed Feature

Add a way to connect to network-enabled printers, maybe have some settings directly integrated with the software itself (most printers with network connectivity have a way to send files and start prints) but leave a way for integrations to create a custom interface. Integrations should probably be done as plugins if possible.

Making it an extensible plugin-based system is especially important since it seems every other manufacturer wants to roll their own protocols these days instead of just using simple uploads... looking at you, Bambu and Elegoo 🤨
