Dashboard
The Printago Dashboard is your central hub for monitoring and managing all connected 3D printers. It provides real-time status updates, job progress tracking, and quick access to printer controls.
Printer Cards​
Each connected printer is displayed as an individual card on the dashboard, providing a comprehensive view of its current status and active jobs.
Card Information Display​
- Printer thumbnail - Visual preview of the current print job
- Job progress - Percentage completion of the active print
- Time remaining - Estimated time until job completion
- Layer progress - Current layer / total layers (e.g., "45/120")
- Temperature readings - Current nozzle and bed temperatures
Status Indicators​
The colored border at the top of each printer card indicates the current printer status:
| Status | Color | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BUSY | 🟢 Green | Actively printing a job |
| WAITING | 🟣 Purple | Connected but waiting for a job |
| READY | 🔵 Blue | Connected and ready to print |
| NEEDS CONFIG | 🟡 Yellow | Missing slicing configuration. |
| OFFLINE | ⚪ Gray | Disconnected from the network |
| STALE | ⚪ Gray | Hasn't reported status recently |
| DISABLED | ⚪ Gray | Has been manually disabled |
Job Monitoring​
The dashboard displays the status of all jobs currently running on your printers, regardless of their source:
The dashboard shows jobs started from any source, including:
- Printago
- External slicers (Orca Slicer, Bambu Studio)
- Bambu Handy app
- SD card prints
This differs from the In-Progress tab in the Print Queue, which only shows jobs initiated through Printago.
Dashboard Actions​
The dashboard provides quick access to several important features:
- Set Clear & Ready - After a job completes, the status indicator will switch to a button labeled
Set Ready - Quick-Set Printer Temps - Click the temps to set them without needing to open the control panel.
- Printer Control Panel - Access the Printer Control Panel via the game controller icon
- Printer Slicer Settings - Access printer-specific settings via the gear icon
- Part Navigation - View part details by clicking on the part name or thumbnail (Printago jobs only)
