Multiple Printer profiles on same networked computer

[bruce356]

Hi, is there any way to have profiles separated by Printer, so if I have 4 printers that use various filament types etc and settings for each printer are slightly different as also with filaments, having all these FFF files bundled together in one drop down becomes extremely overwhelming confusing.

If one could run a totally isolated separate selection or window for each printer with its own settings & profiles, that would make life so much easier.
Currently everything seems to be in the registry (windows) so how you separate things without INI files, not sure but, you programmers can figure this out.

Thanks and regards - bruce

You can already setup all of the different filament types into a single central profile. So that way, if you have printer A with 3 different materials and printer B with 5 different materials, those will only show up as 2 profiles in the "select profile" drop down menu. Then you would just select the correct material configuration after choosing which printer you are using. That makes life MUCH easier.

There's a video about the process here:
