The add-in adds a **SimplyPrint** button to Fusion's **UTILITIES** panel (and next to the built-in 3D Print button on the **MAKE** panel).
Pick **STL** or **3MF**, choose what to export, tweak the mesh quality, hit **Send**, and SimplyPrint opens in your browser with the model loaded - ready to slice, queue, or print.
