3DPrinteROS is a flexible solution and can be deployed with several configurations ranging from “silent monitoring” to a complete user-pays environment.
Most organizations do not use 3DPrinterOS to “charge” their users.
In an education-based organization, 3DPrinterOS is often used to restrict users to a sensible quota/budget - for example, $10.00 a week or 10 hours a day of 3D printing hours.
In a business, 3DPrinterOS can track statistics or bill to accounts/departments.
