The changes include;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Quick stats<\/strong>: overview of amount of jobs, total print time and material usage of your queue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Queue Groups:<\/strong> split up your queue into smaller chunks - perhaps you want a queue group for non-sliced files, and one for files that are ready to be printed?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Job notes: <\/strong>you now have the ability to add a custom note for each item in the queue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Download button:<\/strong> each queue job can now easily be downloaded and checked out<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Virtual items: <\/strong>as an experiment, we have opened up for the file types; <strong>.ufp, .chitubox, .zbd<\/strong>, which can't be printed via SimplyPrint, but can now be stored in the queue<em>(and file)-<\/em>system. These will be marked as \"Virtual\" items, allowing you to click \"+1 printed\" on it, rather than sending it to a printer!<br>You can also mark an entire Print Queue Group as \"Virtual\", rendering even printable &amp; slicer-supported files to be manually marked as finished<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Done items list:<\/strong> in the bottom of your Print Queue, you'll now see a list of finished or ongoing queue items, where the total required amount has been printed. This allows you to easily re-add the item to the queue, before it's removed from our servers a couple of days after it finishes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>More permissions:<\/strong> for Print Farms and schools with multiple users of the platform, we now have a bunch of new permissions for the queue! The especially-cool ones are highlighted!\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\"Can access print queue\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Can re-order print queue and queue groups\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Start prints &amp; slice queued jobs\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Assign printer(s) &amp; printer groups to queue jobs\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Create &amp; delete queue groups\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Move done jobs back to the queue\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\"See other's queued jobs\"<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\"Edit other user's queue items\"<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"<strong>Allow deletion of other user's items\"<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Read other's notes\"<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\"Download other's queued files\"<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/simplyprint.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-3-1.png\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simplyprint.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-3-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/simplyprint.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-3-1-300x103.png 300w, https:\/\/simplyprint.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-3-1-768x264.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"slicer-update\">Slicer update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The SimplyPrint slicer also got a new big update today!
