Hello,

I acquired Simplify3D here on the shop earlier this year.
This week, I bought a second 3D printer.
- The first printer is a Printrbot Simple Metal + Bed heating and E3D v6
- The second (new printer) is the type Prusa i3 Rework 1.5 upgrade with heated bed of 200x300mm and E3D v6 + Bulldog light.

My question:
- How to use Simplify3D with 2 different printers simultaneously?

Thank you in advance for your answers

Bonjour,

J’ai acquis Simplify3D ici, sur le shop en début d’année.
Cette semaine, j’ai acheté une 2ème imprimante 3D.
- La 1ere imprimante est une Printrbot Simple Metal + Lit chauffant et E3D v6
- La 2ème (nouvelle imprimante) est du type Prusa i3 Rework 1.5 avec upgrade lit chauffant de 200x300mm et E3D v6 + Bulldog light.

Ma question :
- Comment faire pour utiliser Simplify3D avec 2 imprimantes différentes en même temps ?

Merci par avance de vos réponses.

You can just open 2 instances of the software if you need to connect to both printers simultaneously.

As far as settings go, just make sure that you have one profile for each machine. I also like to enable the build dimension overrides so that when you select one of the profiles, that gets updated as well. Then you can easily switch between profiles anytime you need to print on a different machine.

Thank you for your response, I'll test that.

^ that is what I do as well. works nicely
