How to add the BigRep ALTRA 670 as a virtual printer
- 1 Install the Fuse bridge on Windows, macOS, or Docker.
- 2 In Fuse, click Add Printer and search for the ALTRA 670. Virtual-only models are listed while Show virtual-only printers is checked, which it is by default.
- 3 Sync the new printer to your Printago account. It shows up on the Printers page with a Virtual badge.
- 4 When Printago assigns it a job, start that print on the ALTRA 670 yourself. The virtual printer runs for the estimated print time, or click Finish now when the real print comes off the bed.

The BigRep ALTRA 670 is a dual-extruder 3D printer with a 700 × 1200 × 800 mm build volume and a chamber that reaches 140 °C. Printago can't control the ALTRA 670 directly. Add it in Fuse as a virtual printer and it runs through Printago like the rest of your farm: jobs queue and route to it, material use is tracked, and every print lands in the job history. You start each print on the machine yourself.
Keep the BigRep ALTRA 670 in your queue and your records
A machine Printago can't control usually ends up on a spreadsheet, outside the queue and the material counts. Add the ALTRA 670 in Fuse as a virtual printer instead. Printago routes jobs to it, tracks the material each one uses, and keeps its job history next to the rest of your farm. You start each print on the machine; the virtual printer runs for the estimated print time, or you click Finish now when the part comes off the bed.
Frequently asked questions
Does Printago work with the BigRep ALTRA 670?
Yes, as a virtual printer. Printago can't send prints to the BigRep ALTRA 670 directly, but you can add it in Fuse as a virtual printer. It then takes jobs from your queue, tracks material, and keeps a job history alongside the rest of your farm. You start each print on the machine yourself.
Why can't Printago control the BigRep ALTRA 670 directly?
Printago doesn't have an integration for the BigRep ALTRA 670's control protocol, so it can't start, pause, or watch its prints. A virtual printer keeps the ALTRA 670 in your queue and your records anyway.
What does a virtual printer do in Printago?
It stands in for the ALTRA 670. Jobs queue and route to it like any other printer, it runs each job for the estimated print time (or until you click Finish now), and the job's material use and history are recorded. You can set it to run in real time, 2×, 5×, or 10×, or to fast-forward, from the printer's Settings tab.
Can I download the G-code Printago slices for the ALTRA 670?
No. Printago slices virtual-printer jobs with a generic profile only to estimate print time and material use. That file isn't made for the ALTRA 670, so it can't be downloaded. Prepare and start the real print in the printer's own software.
