This is a simple yet effective Python script that monitors your 3D printer(s) for completion of print jobs. As soon as a print job completes it sends you an email similar as the one in the screenshot below.
- Modify the files
3dprintnotifier.py
andsendmail2.php
by entering your details like IP addresses of your printer(s) and your email address. - Place the files under PHP on your hosted webserver.
- Place the file
3dprintnotifier.py
somewhere on a PC that is running all the time. - Make it executable by using
chmod +x 3dprintnotifier.py
Set it in your crontab using crontab -e
and adding the line
@reboot /home/user/somewhere/3dprintnotifier.py
As long as the script runs it monitors your 3D printer(s).****
