Explore

- Get printer status (temperatures, print progress, etc.)
- List files on the printer
- Upload G-code files to the printer
- Start, cancel, and monitor print jobs
- Set printer temperatures
- Advanced STL file manipulation:
- Extend base for better adhesion
- Scale models uniformly or along specific axes
- Rotate models around any axis
- Translate (move) models
- Modify specific sections of STL files (top, bottom, center, or custom)
- Comprehensive STL analysis with detailed model information
- Generate multi-angle SVG visualizations of STL files
- Real-time progress reporting for long operations
- Error handling with detailed diagnostics
- Slice STL files to generate G-code
- Confirm temperature settings in G-code files
- Complete end-to-end workflow from STL modification to printing
- Print .3mf files directly on Bambu Lab printers (via MQTT command)
- Slice Bambu projects with FULU OrcaSlicer-bambulab (SLICER_TYPE=orcaslicer-bambulab) and auto-slice unsliced 3MF files before Bambu printing when a project slicer is configured
- Inspect and probe the FULU BambuNetwork runtime (check_fulu_orca_setup) and call safe-by-default FULU bridge RPC methods for diagnostics and development (fulu_bambu_network_rpc)
- Read Bambu Studio preset files (printer, filament, process) as resources

Setting up with Highlight

This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:

Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name 3D Printer Manager

Command (node, npx, python, etc.) npx
Arguments
- Argument 1 -y
- Argument 2 mcp-3d-printer-server
Environment
- BAMBU_MODEL p1s
- BAMBU_TOKEN your_access_token
- SLICER_PATH /path/to/FULU/OrcaSlicer
- SLICER_TYPE orcaslicer-bambulab
- BAMBU_SERIAL your_printer_serial
- PRINTER_HOST your_printer_ip
- PRINTER_TYPE bambu
- FULU_ORCA_PLUGIN_DIR /Applications/OrcaSlicer.app/Contents/MacOS
Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches

`get_stl_info`

Get detailed information about an STL file, including dimensions, vertex count, and bounding box. Parameters: stl_path (string)

`extend_stl_base`

Thank You To FULU And Louis Rossmann

Thank you to the FULU Foundation and Louis Rossmann for standing up for consumer ownership, open source developers, repair rights, and users who should not have working hardware made worse by locked-down software. This MCP server treats the FULU OrcaSlicer-bambulab fork as a first-class Bambu project slicer target.

MCP 3D Printer Server

<details>
<summary><strong>✨ What's New / Significant Updates (as of last session)</strong></summary>

- Dual Local Transports: Added explicit stdio and streamable-http runtime modes with environment-based transport selection.
- FULU OrcaSlicer-bambulab Support: Added orcaslicer-bambulab / fulu_orca slicer support for Bambu project 3MF export, and made it the default Bambu slicer target when no slicer is configured.
- Bambu Reliability Pass: Fixed Bambu argument wiring bugs, added FTP-backed file operations, improved status refresh behavior, and implemented practical command paths for startJob, setTemperature, and print_3mf.
- Blender Bridge Tooling: Added blender_mcp_edit_model with optional execution mode for model-edit collaboration workflows.
- Transport Behavior Tests: Added real behavior tests for both transports (initialize, tools/list, success + failing tools/call, origin rejection).
- Docker Modernization: Updated Docker build flow to work without BuildKit-specific features and verified streamable HTTP initialization in container smoke testing.

</details>

<details>
<summary><strong>🗺️ Roadmap / TODO</strong></summary>

- Achieve Feature Parity: Bring functionality (status detail, file operations, direct printing where possible, preset handling) for OctoPrint, Klipper, Duet, Repetier, Prusa Connect, and Creality Cloud up to the level of robustness planned for the Bambu implementation.
- Implement Full Bambu MQTT Status: Refactor getStatus for Bambu to subscribe to MQTT reports and maintain real-time state.
- Implement Robust AMS Mapping: Replace placeholder logic; correctly parse and use AMS mapping from .3mf slicer config or user overrides for the MQTT print command.
- Implement .3mf Print Overrides: Add logic to the print_3mf tool to handle user-provided overrides (e.g., calibration flags) and potentially common slicer settings if feasible via MQTT/G-code.
- Calculate MD5 Hash: Add logic to calculate and include the MD5 hash of the .3mf file in the MQTT print command (optional but recommended by protocol).
- Refactor Bambu File Ops: Investigate replacing bambu-js FTP operations (getFiles, uploadFile) with direct MQTT methods if possible/stable, or contribute FTPS support to bambu-js.
- Add Preset Discovery Logic: Improve preset resource listing (currently lists based on potential filenames, could parse index files if they exist).
- Expand .3mf Support: Add .3mf printing support for other printer types where applicable.
- Error Handling & Reporting: Enhance MQTT error handling and reporting of print progress/completion.
- Testing: Conduct thorough runtime testing of all new Bambu features.

Description

This is a server that allows MCP users to connect with the API endpoints of these 3D Printers:

- OctoPrint
- Klipper (Moonraker)
- Duet
- Repetier
- Bambu Labs
- Prusa Connect
- Creality/Ender

This server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for connecting Claude with 3D printer management systems. It allows MCP to interact with 3D printers through the APIs of various printer management systems such as OctoPrint, Klipper (via Moonraker), Duet, Repetier, and Bambu Labs printers.

Note on Resource Usage: This MCP server includes advanced 3D model manipulation features that can be memory-intensive when working with large STL files. Please see the "Limitations and Considerations" section for important information about memory usage and performance.
