Bambuddy is a self-hosted print archive and management system for Bambu Lab 3D printers. It gives you full control over your printing workflow — no cloud dependency, no subscriptions, all your data stays on your own hardware. Why Bambuddy? Own your data — All print history stored locally Works offline — Uses Developer Mode for direct printer control via local network Full automation — Schedule prints, auto power-off, get notified when done Multi-printer support — Manage your entire print farm from one interface Key Features Print Archive Every print is automatically archived with its 3MF file, metadata, 3D preview, and photos. Search, tag, compare, and re-print any past job with a single click — complete with AMS filament mapping. Real-Time Monitoring Watch your printers live with camera streaming, status updates, fan monitoring, AMS status, and HMS error alerts. Control print speed, chamber lights, pause/resume, and even skip objects mid-print. Print Queue & Scheduling Drag-and-drop queue with multi-printer support. Schedule prints for specific times, use model-based routing for load balancing across your farm, and let smart plugs handle power management automatically. Notifications Get alerts via WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Email, Pushover, ntfy, or Home Assistant. Customize templates, set quiet hours, and receive per-filament usage details. Spool Inventory Track every spool with automatic consumption tracking, per-spool cost calculation, AMS slot assignment, and low-stock alerts. Bulk add up to 100 spools at once. Virtual Printer & Remote Printing Bambuddy can emulate a Bambu Lab printer on your network, letting you send prints directly from Bambu Studio or OrcaSlicer. The new Proxy Mode enables remote printing from anywhere via secure TLS relay. Integrations Spoolman sync, MQTT for Home Assistant/Node-RED, Prometheus metrics for Grafana, OrcaSlicer preset import, GitHub backup scheduling, and a comprehensive REST API.
