3D Printer Controller

3D Printer Control Software for Raspberry Pi, ROCK Pi and PC

The 3DPrinterOS client turns a Raspberry Pi, ROCK Pi or computer into a dedicated 3D printer controller. Connect your printers once, then slice, print and monitor them from any browser.

Runs on Raspberry Pi, ROCK Pi, Windows, macOS and Linux.

Why a dedicated controller

Free your PC, connect every printer

Dedicated controller

A Raspberry Pi or ROCK Pi runs the client, so your main PC no longer has to sit next to the printer.

Hassle-free setup

Download the image, flash it to an SD card and boot.

Cloud connected

Printers join the 3DPrinterOS cloud for remote printing and monitoring.

Works with many printers

Connect a wide range of 3D printer brands and models.

Ethernet, WiFi and USB

Boards connect to printers and networks over Ethernet, WiFi and USB.

Secure by design

Password protection, SSH access and encrypted cloud connections.

Setup

Your controller ready in minutes

  1. Get the image

    Go to Downloads in 3DPrinterOS and select Get Image.

  2. Flash and boot

    Extract the image, flash it to an SD card and start the board.

  3. Add printers

    Connect your printers and they appear in your 3DPrinterOS dashboard.

Scales with your fleet

Right-size your hosts

One Raspberry Pi can host up to 15 printers, and a computer can host 50 or more. Live camera feeds need more headroom, so large fleets often spread printers across several hosts.

FAQ

3D printer controller questions

What is 3D printer controller software?

It is software that runs on a small computer next to your printers and connects them to a management platform. The 3DPrinterOS client does this on a Raspberry Pi, ROCK Pi or regular computer.

How many printers can one Raspberry Pi control?

One Raspberry Pi can host up to 15 printers, and a computer can host 50 or more. Camera feeds use more resources, so plan for extra headroom.

How do I set up a Raspberry Pi controller?

Download the image from the Downloads section in 3DPrinterOS, flash it to an SD card and boot the board.

Can I connect over WiFi?

Yes. Raspberry Pi and ROCK Pi boards typically include Ethernet, WiFi and USB.

Is the controller secure?

Yes. It supports password protection and SSH, and connects to the cloud over encrypted connections. Change the default password during setup.
