SimplyPrint Client
SimplyPrint Client is a macOS desktop app that connects compatible 3D printers on your local network to the SimplyPrint platform for remote management.
What is SimplyPrint Client?
SimplyPrint Client is a desktop utility for macOS that links compatible 3D printers on your local network with the SimplyPrint service. It is designed for hobbyists, schools, makerspaces, and print-farm operators who want to monitor and manage printers without installing software on the printers themselves. The app runs on a Mac that stays powered on, acts as a bridge to supported printers across multiple brands, and opens a local interface for setup and control. Users typically install it to bring printers online, keep them reachable through their SimplyPrint account, and handle everyday remote-print workflows more conveniently. On Mac, the client can run from the menu bar and can be configured to open at login so printer connectivity stays available in the background.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This app is used to keep 3D printers connected to an online management service, so ongoing background activity and network access are normal for its purpose. It may be set to launch at login and stay available from the menu bar so your printers remain reachable. That behavior is expected, but you should only keep it running on a Mac you trust and on a network where your printers are intended to be managed.
Recommendation: Keep SimplyPrint Client if you use SimplyPrint to monitor or control your printers from another device or through the web. If you stop using the service or no longer want this Mac to act as the bridge, you can remove the app or disable its login launch and your printers will no longer stay connected through this computer.
