Do any hubs have PLA or ABS that is specific to only one printer? (For hubs that have multiple printers) I find it odd that 3d hubs wants me to enter in the colors of PLA I have available 8 separate times! Once for each printer. I don’t see how this is applicable to real life? I have 20-30 rolls of PLA at any given time that can print on all of my printers. The same situation goes for ABS and PETG. So now I have to enter 10-20 colors 24 times? What am I missing?
Each printer is one device and might be run together or apart. So the hub can produce 2 items (orders) in the same time frame.
It’s not possible to feed the filament from a single reel to 2 printers at the same time.
Information about each printer and available colours are stored in a database which the web page pulls the information to display.
In real life it’s up to the printer’s human operator to decide the best printer for the order taken on based upon the given instructions from the human placing the order. Running 2 printers with many colours requires that it’s operator needs 2 reels of the same PLA/ABS in the same colour
Hi Miaviator, I hear what you are saying! I have it on my long todo list to update the colors on all my printers but in the mean time I have the color All listed on some printers and ask the customer after they put in an order
