How to add the Essentium HSE 240 HT as a virtual printer

  1. 1
    Install the Fuse bridge on Windows, macOS, or Docker.
  2. 2
    In Fuse, click Add Printer and search for the HSE 240 HT. Virtual-only models are listed while Show virtual-only printers is checked, which it is by default.
  3. 3
    Sync the new printer to your Printago account. It shows up on the Printers page with a Virtual badge.

The Essentium HSE 240 HT is a dual-extruder 3D printer with a 430 × 350 × 375 mm build volume and a chamber that reaches 185 °C. Printago can't control the HSE 240 HT 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.

Virtual

Keep the Essentium HSE 240 HT 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 HSE 240 HT 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 Essentium HSE 240 HT?

Yes, as a virtual printer. Printago can't send prints to the Essentium HSE 240 HT 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 Essentium HSE 240 HT directly?

Printago doesn't have an integration for the Essentium HSE 240 HT's control protocol, so it can't start, pause, or watch its prints. A virtual printer keeps the HSE 240 HT in your queue and your records anyway.

What does a virtual printer do in Printago?

It stands in for the HSE 240 HT. 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 HSE 240 HT?

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 HSE 240 HT, so it can't be downloaded. Prepare and start the real print in the printer's own software.
