Initial Setup

Read this page first if you haven't paired your printers

Startup Options

Command line startup options are explained here in the readme. If you want the WebUI to automatically connect to all your saved printers (or a specific set) on startup, you must configure that with the appropriate arguments. With no arguments supplied, the WebUI will default to the last connected printer if available.

Switch printer via GUI

Once multiple printers are connected in the WebUI, a drop-down menu to switch between them will appear in the top bar of the UI image

Switch printers via API

If you'd rather manage the active printer programmatically (ie. for OrcaSlicer profiles), you can use either of the following arguments:

Using the printer's IP - WEB_UI_URL:PORT?ip=PRINTER_IP_HERE
Using the printer's Serial Number (automatically detects the IP) - WEB_UI_URL:PORT?serial=PRINTER_SERIAL_HERE
