3D printing platforms

Send a model from the Meshy web app straight into your slicer or printer software, such as Bambu Studio or Ultimaker Cura, without downloading and importing the file by hand.


Before you begin

  • You need a Pro plan or higher. On the Free and Starter plans, clicking an app opens the upgrade options.

  • Install the app on the computer where you use the Meshy web app. The web app opens the app through your browser, so you don't need a plugin.

Send a model to your app

To send a model to your app, follow these steps:

  1. In the left sidebar of the Meshy web app, click Print. If the panel asks you to select a model, select it in the list of your generations.

  2. In the Print panel, under Send to Printer, click your app.

  3. In the browser prompt, click the button that opens the app.

Meshy exports the model, and the app opens it. Some apps ask you to confirm the import first. For the steps in your app, see its page in the following table.

You can also send from the viewer toolbar. With the Print panel open, click Send to Printer (the paper plane icon), and then click your app in the menu.
