Pronterface, Pronsole, Printcore

Pronterface, Pronsole, Printcore

Printrun is a full suite of host interfaces for 3D printers and CNC, consisting of:

  • Pronterface, a fully-featured GUI host
  • Pronsole, an interactive command line host for the console lovers (or printing over ssh, or...)
  • Printcore, a standalone non-interactive G-Code host

Both Pronterface and Pronsole let you interactively control your machine, slice objects directly from the host, print objects, upload to SD cards and run SD prints...
Printrun supports both serial and ethernet connections and has been used with great success on a wide range of 3D printers and CNC machines.

Customizable UI

Customizable UI

User interface is all a matter of taste. This is why we give you a lot of choices on the host interface. Temperature gauges or graphs, full controls for calibration or lightweight ones for daily usage, 2D or 3D viewer, tabbed or single window interface... It's all your call!

CLI printing

CLI printing

There is no better place than command line for you ? Don't have GUI access to your computer ? Then just use Pronsole, a light and functional CLI host for 3D printers.

Slic3r integration

Slic3r integration

Using Slic3r ? Great ! You can directly choose your Slic3r presets from Pronterface, and use them straight away to slice your parts from within the host.

Macros & custom buttons

Macros & custom buttons

Like defining your own commands ? Printrun lets you easily define macros (with arbitrary python, shell and G-Code combinations) and add custom buttons for them within Pronterface.

Part excluder

Part excluder

A failed part is about to ruin the print of a plate of ten objects ? This is not a problem anymore. Just use the part excluder to stop printing just the failed object while continuing the others.

STL plater

STL plater

Have a bunch of objects to plate ? Just run the plater, position and rotate the parts to your desire and you're done. Oh, and we can use smart auto arrangement algorithm too, if installed !

G-Code plater

G-Code plater

Want to print a plate of already sliced G-Codes which use different settings ? Just use the G-Code plater to combine them in a single print job.
