Printago puts your entire 3D printing operation in your pocket. Monitor and manage the printers in your Printago workspace from anywhere, whether you run two machines or two hundred. DASHBOARD See your whole fleet at a glance. Each printer shows its live status, a camera view, nozzle and bed temperatures, the current print, progress, and estimated time remaining. Filter by Running, Errored, Waiting, or Ready, and switch between a detailed view and a compact grid for large farms. PRINTER DETAIL Tap any printer for a closer look: live camera, temperatures, print progress, and the loaded filament across AMS units and external spools. Mark a printer ready once you have cleared the bed. FILAMENT AT A GLANCE Every slot shows its color and material, with the vendor and product name, so you always know what is loaded. Configure filament in the app on the go as you add it to the printer. BUILT FOR PRINT FARMS Designed for operators managing many machines across vendors, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, and Klipper. Printago is a companion to the Printago platform and requires an account. Manage parts, jobs, orders, and the rest of your workflow at printago.io.
