Print Farm Software

Print Farm is a web application for running a workshop full of 3D printers from one place. You open it in a browser, and it stays in step with the real machines: their status, temperatures, progress and cameras all update live on screen.

The Print Farm dashboard, showing key figures, charts and the live status of every printer

From Print Farm you can:

  • Watch every printer at once, and start, pause, resume or stop a print.
  • Upload print files and send them to a printer or to a shared queue.
  • Track filament stock spool by spool, and see what each print cost.
  • Review print history and production, cost and failure statistics.
  • Organise the operation into farms, and give each team member exactly the access they need.

How printers connect​

Each printer is connected through a small controller device, typically a Raspberry Pi, that sits on the same network as the printer. The controller keeps a live connection to Print Farm, so what you see on screen reflects the real machine.

Print Farm drives Bambu Lab printers and printers running Moonraker (Klipper), Raise3D and Repetier-Server. The exact controls available for a printer depend on which of these it uses.

A quick note on names and plans​

The name and logo you see come from your organisation's branding. The default name is Print Farm; your build may show its own name and logo instead.

Print Farm is sold as a subscription. Some screens, such as statistics, filament stock, the audit log, team management and camera streaming, appear only when your plan includes them. Where a feature is not part of your plan, the app shows an upgrade panel or a Subscription limit reached message instead.
