Printing SKUs

This page covers how to print SKUs from your library. To learn more about how to create and manage SKUs, check out SKU Management.

Starting a Print​

Single SKU Printing​

  1. Navigate to Products -> SKUs
  2. Find your SKU and click the Print button
  3. Configure your print settings:
    • Quantities are pre-populated based on the SKU configuration
    • Materials are already set at the SKU level and cannot be overridden
    • For OpenSCAD parts, only parameters that are marked as SKU PARAM in the SKU configuration are displayed
  4. Choose printer Assignment Method
bulk printing dialog

The printing interface works similarly to bulk printing parts, with each part in the SKU displayed in an accordion format for configuration.

OpenSCAD Parameter Configuration​

For SKUs containing OpenSCAD parts, only parameters marked as SKU PARAM in the SKU configuration are displayed for customization during printing.

For more details on parameter configuration, see SKU Management.

Bulk SKU Printing​

You can select multiple SKUs and print them together:

  1. Select multiple SKUs using checkboxes
  2. Choose Print from the Bulk Actions menu
  3. Each SKU is presented one at a time for configuration:
    • Configure quantities and parameters for the current SKU
    • Click Next to proceed to the next SKU
    • Repeat until all selected SKUs are configured
  4. All configured SKUs are then added to the print queue

Printer Assignment​

SKU printing uses the same printer assignment methods as parts printing:

Lets Printago automatically match jobs to compatible printers based on:

  • Has required materials loaded
  • Is marked Clear & Ready
  • Has no active prints

Filter available printers using tags to dynamically group printers. For example:

Next Steps​

After printing SKUs, jobs for their parts are added to the print queue where they are matched with available printers. For more information about how parts are matched with printers and queue management, see Print Queue Management.
