Multiple Printer Control?

Is there a good solution for connecting multiple printers to one computer with S3D? I currently have 4 printers that I manually connect to to avoid interrupting prints.

I wish I could have tabs for each printer with the ability to use the machine control panel for each of them.

Thanks,
Adrian
Setup:
M2
S3D V1.1.4
Black PLA using default high/medium quality settings
Mac OS 10.8.3

Re: Multiple Printer Control?

You can just open a new instance of the software and it will not interfere with the other windows. If you have 4 printers, my recommendation would be to use SD cards if any of your printer support them, having 4 prints fail if your PC has a hiccup would be a hassle.

I think at the moment you can open multiple instances and connect to each one... that's the best way i believe
