PrintHQ Bridge runs on your local network and syncs your 3D printers to the cloud in real-time. Monitor temperatures, track prints, and auto-deduct filament.
Available for all major platforms. Download, install, and connect your printers in minutes.
macOS Users: First Launch Instructions
PrintHQ Bridge is not yet notarized with Apple. After installing, you may see a warning that the app is "damaged" or from an "unidentified developer." To fix this, open Terminal and run:
xattr -cr "/Applications/PrintHQ Bridge.app"
Then right-click the app and select Open (not double-click) for the first launch.
We are actively working on obtaining an Apple Developer certificate to eliminate this step in a future update.
Run PrintHQ Bridge as a container. Perfect for headless servers, NAS devices, Unraid, and Raspberry Pi.
docker run -d --name printhq-bridge --network host -v bridge-data:/app/data --restart unless-stopped

Host networking is required for printer discovery (mDNS, SSDP, UDP broadcast). Web UI available at http://your-server-ip:9876

A lightweight agent that bridges your local printers with your cloud dashboard.
Nozzle and bed temperatures, fan speeds, print progress, layer counts, and filament status streamed live to your dashboard.
Bridge detects when a print starts and finishes, automatically logging it in PrintHQ with time, settings, and filament used.
Queue a print on the dashboard with filament assignments. Bridge auto-deducts the right amount from the right spools on completion.
Each dashboard printer gets a unique code. Paste it into Bridge and the connection is instant, secure, and unambiguous.
No terminal required. Bridge serves a clean web dashboard at localhost:9400 where you can manage printers, monitor status, and view queue.
Bridge connects to printers from the most popular manufacturers. We're actively testing and adding more models.
Also works with any printer running:
We're always looking to expand our supported printer list. If you'd like to help test Bridge with your printer, we'd love to hear from you. Join our Discord and let us know what you're running.
Download, paste your printer code, and you're connected.
Grab the binary for your OS. No install required.
Log in with your PrintHQ account in the web UI.
Paste the printer code from your dashboard and connect your printer.
Hit start and your printers sync to PrintHQ in real-time.
