# How to export profiles from Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, and PrusaSlicer

# How to export profiles from Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, and PrusaSlicer
This article explains what to export from your desktop slicer before importing profiles into SimplyPrint Cloud Slicer.

|| Desktop slicer menus can change between versions. If your app looks different, look for profile, preset, configuration, or bundle export options in the desktop slicer.

## What SimplyPrint can import
The Cloud Slicer import flow accepts profile files and bundles in these formats:

- `.ini`
- `.json`
- `.zip`
- `.orca_printer`
- `.orca_filament`
- `.elegoo_printer`
- `.elegoo_filament`
- `.bbscfg`
- `.bbsflmt`

If your desktop slicer can export a bundle, export the bundle. If not, export the individual printer, filament, and process or print profiles you want to use.

## Bambu Studio
For Bambu Studio, export the profiles or configuration bundle that contains the printer, filament, and process presets you want to reuse.

SimplyPrint can import Bambu-style bundle files such as `.bbscfg` and `.bbsflmt`, as well as supported `.json` or zipped profile files.

## OrcaSlicer
For OrcaSlicer, export the printer, filament, and process profiles you want to reuse.

SimplyPrint can import Orca-style bundle files such as `.orca_printer` and `.orca_filament`, as well as supported `.json`, `.ini`, or zipped profile files.

## PrusaSlicer
For PrusaSlicer, export the configuration or profile files that contain the printer, filament, and print settings you want to reuse.

SimplyPrint can import supported `.ini`, `.json`, or zipped profile files.

## After exporting
1. Open **Slicer** or go to **Settings > Slicing > Slicer profiles**.
2. Select the slicer engine that matches the exported profiles.
3. Click **Import profile**.
4. Upload the exported files.
5. Validate the profiles.
6. Import the profiles you want to keep.

## If import does not find the right profiles
Make sure the export contains the actual custom profiles, not only a project file or a sliced G-code file.

If the file imports but the profile does not appear in the slicer, check the selected engine, printer model, nozzle, nozzle volume type, material, and profile permissions.
