The Hub-and-Spoke Model
You do NOT need a separate Raspberry Pi or Bridge software installation for every printer.
One Bridge can confidently handle the network proxying for dozens of 3D printers on the exact same subnet.
How to link multiple
- Install the SoLoPrint Bridge on a centralized computer or a dedicated Raspberry Pi on your local network (like a server closet).
- Navigate to Printers > Add Printer in the dashboard.
- Select that exact same Bridge from the dropdown.
- Simply input the diverse IP Addresses of your scattered OctoPrint or Moonraker nodes (e.g.,
192.168.1.5and192.168.1.6).
The single Bridge securely fetches the HTTP/WebSocket strings from multiple endpoints and tunnels them all securely up to our cloud backend! Enjoy a much cleaner physical setup.
