[Feature Request] Ability to add Printer by IP address (Lan Only Mode) for Bambu Lab printers

Open fire1ce opened this issue 2 years ago • 12 comments

Lan only mode uses auto-discovery to find a printer on local network. When using remote connection to the lan segment - like VPN, auto-discovery not always works and there is no way to use the printer (Communication to the mqtt works fine).

Add the ability to add printer manually hard coded by ip address / hostname (same as for klipper)

GitHub bot: this issue is stale because it has been open for 90 days with no activity.

+1 this would be an amazing addition. at the moment, the discovery of printers on the local network has to be faked by generating those SSDP pakets yourself (there's a python script for this out there), which is a big hassle and not at all feasible for anyone.

also, auto connect to a specific lan mode printer would be great, maybe even just remember the last one connected.

I would also love to see this feature. I need it to connect to the printer via VPN.

+1. Bambu upstream has expressed little interest in adding this feature thus far.

Would also like to have this feature! This would be a big benefit for the Orca Slicer!

Please add this feature as soon as possible. It is greatly needed.

@odious Can you share any info on the script?

I stumbled upon this one: https://github.com/jonans/bsnotify Haven't checked if it works though.

An option to auto-connect the slicer to a configurable printer would be a lot less hassle than having to fake the discovery pakets.

I found and used this one successfully yesterday - https://gist.github.com/Alex-Schaefer/72a9e2491a42da2ef99fb87601955cc3

Is there any news about the progress of this issue ? Is there something purely on the slicer side, or is the slicer community waiting for bambu to change something in the FW of the printers ?

BambuStudio is apparently adding this feature soon, https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/2232#issuecomment-2257539405 would be nice if orca can add it too after bambu studio pushes the new update

just got a P1S, it's great if I stay in bambu ecosystem, but a absolute s**t show if I dare try to use other solutions
