Problem or Use Case

Printing from Bambuddy’s main File Manager (Bambuddy storage) works well.

But many jobs exist only on the printer SD card (sent directly to the printer, legacy files, shared lab workflows). Bambuddy can show these via:

Printer Card → Storage → SD card view

However, SD card files are currently not manageable from the main Bambuddy File Manager and cannot be printed/queued from that SD card view (forcing a download → reupload workaround).

Proposed Solution

Add “Print” / “Queue” actions to the SD card File Manager view

In the SD card file list (opened from printer card), allow selecting one (or multiple) files and:

  • Print now (send job to the same printer or other/multiple printers)
  • Add to queue (create queue item targeting the same printer or other/multiple printers)
  • move to bambuddy File storage

(The printer selection should follow the usual Bambuddy queuing workflow)

And Change the Default sorting to newest first, so the most recent uploads are immediately accessible.

OR/AND

Add each printer’s SD card as a remote storage location in the main Bambuddy File Manager, so SD card content can be managed with the same UX and actions as Bambuddy storage.

In File Manager, add the remote storage locations:

  • Bambuddy Storage
  • Printer SD: H2D Pro 001
  • Printer SD: …
Image

(optional) Filter/search across Printers/locations

This could also tie into the Discord discussions (jhf2442 and issue #124 ) regarding workflow and remote FTP/NAS file storage

Alternatives Considered

download → reupload workaround

@maziggy commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):

Sorry, but I don't see the requirement to start prints from printer's file manager.

When it comes to external folder support, this should also not be implemented in this place.
