Printing Files

Printago makes printing Parts and SKUs straightforward, whether you're printing a single part or a complex product with multiple components.

Overview​

You can print from either Parts or SKUs:

  • Parts represent individual 3D models ready for printing
  • SKUs are collections of parts that make up complete products
  • Both support quantity settings and OpenSCAD parameters
  • Both use the same printer assignment options

Starting a Print​

From Parts​

  1. Navigate to Products -> Parts

  2. Find your part and click the print sku button.

  3. Set quantity and any OpenSCAD parameters

  4. Choose printer assignment method

From SKUs​

  1. Navigate to Products -> SKUs
  2. Locate your SKU and click Print
  3. Expand each part's section to:
    • Set quantities
    • Configure OpenSCAD parameters
    • Preview customizations
print sku
OpenSCAD Parameters

Parts using OpenSCAD display parameter inputs based on how they're configured in the SKU. See SKU Management for details on parameter configuration.

Printer Assignment​

When starting a print, you can target specific printers or let Printago handle printer selection automatically. Every print job enters the Print Queue, and starts when matching printers become available.

Assignment Methods​

Next Available​

Lets Printago automatically match jobs to compatible printers based on:

  • Material requirements
  • Color matching
  • Current printer status

Specific Printer​

Target an individual printer from your fleet. The job waits in queue until that printer:

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

Tagged Printers​

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

AMS Printing

Multi-color is Coming Soon! Until then, printers with the Use AMS checkbox selected will feed from Slot 1 (left-most) AMS slot.
