SpoolBoard is the planning layer for people running several printers or a small print farm: one print queue, honest per-job costing, maintenance timers and shared stock across every machine. It works with any printer brand, and pairs with OctoPrint or Obico for live monitoring.
If you run more than one machine, the hard part is not printing, it is keeping the queue, stock and costs straight. 3D printing management software organises that work so nothing collides.
Jobs sit in a single priority queue with a per-printer calendar. See what is next, reassign work between machines, and keep every printer busy.
Full COGS on every print: filament, electricity, machine wear and your markup, exported to CSV for the books. No back-of-envelope pricing.
Run-hour and calendar timers per machine, with due flags so a nozzle change or belt check never slips when you manage multiple printers.
A print queue is only useful if it matches the stock and machines you actually have. SpoolBoard keeps the two in step.
Order jobs by priority and let the scheduler slot them onto printers. Urgent work rises to the top without you re-shuffling a spreadsheet.
Each job reserves filament with a roll-over ladder, so two prints never claim the same grams. If one roll runs short the next spool takes over.
A single view answers the daily question: which queued jobs have the stock and a free machine right now, so you start the next print with confidence.
Prefer to place jobs by hand? Drag work onto a per-printer calendar and block out time for a specific machine when you need to.
Costing sits on the same ledger as your filament, so a price is never a guess. Every job is costed the same way across the fleet.
Filament grams at real unit cost, electricity by print time, machine wear per run-hour, plus the markup you set. That is your true cost, not an estimate.
Keep separate books per pool for different clients or product lines, then export the ledger to CSV for invoicing and your accounts.
More machines means more upkeep. SpoolBoard tracks it per printer so nothing runs on a worn nozzle or a dry rail.
Set tasks to fire after a number of print hours or on a fixed date. Each machine carries its own schedule, from lube to belt tension.
Overdue and upcoming tasks are flagged clearly, so a fleet stays serviced. Read more on the 3D printer maintenance page.
When more than one person runs the printers, stock and costs have to be shared cleanly. Pools and roles handle that.
Filament lives in pools your whole team can see, so reservation and costing work across everyone's jobs, not just one person's spools.
Control who can move stock, edit costs or manage the queue. See how it works for a workshop on the for teams page.
SpoolBoard is the planning, stock and costing layer, not 3D printer monitoring software. It sits alongside the tools you already run.
For cameras and live status, keep using OctoPrint or Obico. SpoolBoard manages the queue, filament and per-job cost that those tools do not.
Brand-agnostic by design. Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, Voron or a mixed 3D print farm, all managed in one place.
Every plan and price rides on grams-accurate filament tracking, so the queue reflects stock you truly have.

It is software that organises the work around your printers: the print queue, job priority, per-job costing, maintenance schedules and shared filament stock. SpoolBoard handles this planning layer so several printers stay coordinated, rather than tracking prints on paper or in a spreadsheet.
Yes, for a small 3D print farm. It manages the queue, reserves filament to jobs so two prints never claim the same grams, costs every job across the fleet, and tracks maintenance per machine. For live camera monitoring you pair it with OctoPrint or Obico.
No. SpoolBoard is the planning, stock and costing layer, not 3D printer monitoring software. For live status and cameras you pair it with OctoPrint or Obico, and use SpoolBoard to manage the queue, filament and per-job cost.
Yes. SpoolBoard is brand-agnostic, so it works with Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, Voron and any other printer. You manage the queue, stock and costing in SpoolBoard regardless of what hardware or slicer you run.
Yes. Jobs sit in a priority queue with a what-can-I-print-now view, a per-printer calendar and manual scheduling. A roll-over ladder reserves filament to each job so the queue reflects stock you actually have.
SpoolBoard starts from £3.99 a month for a single maker, and the Company plan is from £25 a month for unlimited printers and a shared team. See the pricing page for the current plans.
