Bambu Lab Integration: How to Find My Local Dashboard



After installing the Bambu Lab client integration on your device of choice following our setup guide, a local dashboard is now running. You'll need to access this dashboard to manage the Bambu Lab printers connected to SimplyPrint.

The dashboard is a web page hosted on your device locally. It typically uses port 8000, but if that port is already in use, it will automatically increase by one until it finds an available port, such as 8001, 8002, and so on.

On Windows and macOS


If you installed the SimplyPrint Bambu Lab Client on Windows or macOS, you can access the dashboard easily:
Check the system tray (Windows) or menu bar (macOS): Look for the SimplyPrint icon.
Click or double-click the icon: This will open the dashboard in your browser automatically.
If the dashboard does not open, try manually entering in your browser:
- http://localhost:8000
- If that doesn’t work, try http://localhost:8001, http://localhost:8002, etc.

On Raspberry Pi or Another Device


If the client is installed on a separate device (e.g., a Raspberry Pi), follow these steps:
Find the IP address of the device: You can follow this guide: Find the IP of Your Raspberry Pi.
Enter the IP address into your browser, followed by the port:
- Example: http://192.168.1.100:8000
- If that doesn’t work, try http://192.168.1.100:8001, http://192.168.1.100:8002, etc.

What If I Can’t Access the Dashboard?


If you are unable to access the dashboard, make sure:
- The SimplyPrint Bambu Lab Client is installed and running.
- Your computer is on the same network as the device running the client.
- The correct IP address and port are being used.

By following these steps, you should be able to find and access your local SimplyPrint Bambu Lab dashboard easily!
