The **3D Print Log Uploader** plugin for Ultimaker Cura lets you add new prints directly from Cura. Automatically log print settings, duration, and filament usage from Cura.

You can install this plugin via the [Ultimaker Cura Marketplace](https://marketplace.ultimaker.com/app/cura/plugins/3d-print-log/3dPrintLogUploader). Alternatively, you can download the [latest release from GitHub](https://github.com/ChristopherHoffman/3d-print-log-cura-plugin/releases) and drag/drop into Cura to install.

### Usage

Once installed, a prompt will be displayed asking if you would like to send the print information to 3D Print Log when you save GCode. Alternatively, you can send print information through the **Extensions** -> **3D Print Log** -> **Send to 3D Print Log** menu option.

This will open a browser tab with 3D Print Log's **New Print** form prepopulated with the information from Cura.

### Customize Settings

You can customize the list of logged settings through Cura's **Extensions** -> **3D Print Log** -> **Configure Settings to Log** menu option.

Here you can select if you want to record the Profile Name, the Filament Names, and the list of settings you want recorded. Simply search for the setting you want to record, and click the Checkbox next to them to start uploading them to 3D Print Log.

The **Reset to Defaults** will revert any changes you made back to the default selection.
