Continuous Print Queue for Octoprint

This plugin automates your 3D printing!

v2.4.0 demo thumbnail

  • Add gcode files to the queue and set a number of times to print each. The plugin will print them in sequence, running "bed clearing" script after each.
  • Group multiple files together into "jobs" and run them multiple times. Don't make 10 boxes by printing 10 bases, then 10 lids - just define a "box" job and print box/lid combos in sequence.
  • Reduce manual intervention with failure automation. This plugin optionally integrates with The Spaghetti Detective and can retry prints that fail to adhere to the bed, with configurable limits on how hard to try before giving up.
  • Print with multiple 3D printers over the local network. LAN queues can parallelize your printing efforts, while still providing a single queue to print from.
