Feature Request: Print Queue Management (Multi-Job Scheduling)

Open sidekick2000 opened this issue 4 months ago • 0 comments

Currently, bambu-farm lets me upload and send individual jobs to printers, but there is no built-in way to queue multiple jobs for the same printer. For people managing many printers (e.g. 10–20 units), it would be very useful to define a list of files per printer and have them automatically executed one after another. Right now, I have to manually start the next job once the previous one finishes, which limits unattended operation.

Solution request:

•	Ability to create a per-printer job queue with multiple 3MF/GCode files.
•	As soon as a job finishes and the printer reports idle, the next file in the queue should automatically start.

•	Simple queue operations:
•	Add jobs (via UI or API)
•	Reorder jobs
•	Pause/Resume queue
•	Cancel individual jobs or the whole queue
•	Optional: Persistent queues (saved to disk so they survive a restart).

⚠️ Important: This only works safely if the 3MF/GCode has been prepared to automatically clear the build plate before starting the next job (e.g. purge/wipe or eject macro). Otherwise prints would collide. There are some solutions for that on the market.
