I have my Raspberry Pi Running my Printer.
I have a python script polling a folder on the Rasppi for gcode files, I then have another app on my laptops than drop the gcode files to a UNC path on the raspberry. This means all the gcode processing and slicing is performed on the laptops/computers and then the actual printing and monitoring of the print is offloaded to the Pi.
The python script also emails when the job is complete and takes pictures of the print on the attached webcam.
If anyone is interested let me know and I'll post up the Pi configuration and scripts.
