### What works with SimplyPrint

Connected through OctoPrint, SimplyPrint is expected to support everything the BCN3D Sigma R19 lets other software do: the camera and AI failure detection, remote printing, temperature and movement control and AutoPrint. 3 features depend on how it's set up: the table says what each needs.

## What slicer to use for the BCN3D Sigma R19

None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the BCN3D Sigma R19, but it takes standard G-code: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.

We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the BCN3D Sigma R19.

## The app for the BCN3D Sigma R19

BCN3D doesn't make an app for the BCN3D Sigma R19. SimplyPrint works as its app: on your phone and in any browser, with a slicer in the cloud.

- An app for iPhone and Android, the same in any browser, and a slicer in the cloud.
- More than monitoring: a print queue, AI failure detection, AutoPrint and accounts for a team.
- Printers from many brands in one place, side by side.
- Hosted in Frankfurt, Germany, under the GDPR.

## Automate the BCN3D Sigma R19

### Ways to automate it

- [Your own ejection G-code](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/custom): Write the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print.
- [A robot arm, or anything with an API](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/api): Tell SimplyPrint the plate is clear through the API or a webhook, from a robot arm or your own system.
- [Clear it by hand, keep the queue](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/manual-mode): AutoPrint waits for you to mark the plate clear, then starts the next job.

[How AutoPrint works](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint). AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.
