have to wonder here...with ANY work flow, why wouldn't you save your job to a local file before exporting to the printer to begin with? just curious. you apparently REALLY trust your computer to not hiccup.
Not sure I explained the process enough as there would be no hiccup.
I slice the object in S3D and then hit Prepare top Print, Select Wifi and choose the printer. As S3D is, it sends the file to the printer. This works just fine. What I think needs to be _fixed_ is that the file cannot be named. That is the only issue (no issue sending the file, not that it would matter anyway). All other slicers that do this same thing allow the file name to be changed when sending to the printer. That is all I'm looking for... just that S3D allow the file name to be changed when sent. Noting else.
What I'm told it.. there is a work around. But that work around is no different then saving the file, renaming it and then sending it to the printer using the separate Machine Control app. This 100% defeats the ability to connect to the printer via wifi.
