Print Job Queuing

[DillanS212]

I've been using a print queue plugin for Octoprint for my other printers for another year, and now that I'm running a pair of Carbon X1's alongside my other printers, I'm beginning to realise how much I rely on it for an efficient workflow.

I'd like to see something like this integrated into the Bambu ecosystem.

The workflow should work something like this:

• When multiple plates are in the slicer, there is an option for 'Queue all plates.'
• Printer allows you to map AMS as usual for each plate.
• Printer begins printing the first plate
• Printer completes print and notifies user via handy app
• User confirms plate is cleared
• Printer asks if the print was successful, if not, asks the user if they'd like to retry print.
• Printer prompts if filament needs to be changed, and tells the user what plate is required (textured, engineering etc.)
• Printer starts next (or retried) print
• Repeat until all queued jobs are completed.

The user should also be able to:

• Add prints to the queue
• Re-order the queue
• Remove prints from the queue
• Change the quantity of each plate required (for printing multiples)

In a perfect world, the queue automatically sends prints to the next available printer omn the network with the correct filament loaded/nozzle fitted.

This would make the Bambus the perfect print farm printer and would make volume part production much more practical. It's about all that's stopping me from swapping to Carbon X1's exclusively.

I need this function, currently it just impossible to use bambulab printers on printfarms... I mean 30+ printers, and 1000s of different projects. Ammount of job is just too big.

I support this request. I'm planning a print farm and the lack of this function is holding me back from Bambu printers.

This would be amazing!

This would be great.
