Allow multiple SimplyPrint Bambu Lab Client instances per printer (multi-OS/multi-computer support)#796

I dual-boot Windows and Linux on the same computer, and I’d like to run the SimplyPrint Bambu Lab integration client on both operating systems for the same printer. Currently, it seems the client only supports one active instance/connection at a time.
Use case: Depending on which OS I’m booted into, I want SimplyPrint to be able to connect to and manage my Bambu Lab printer without needing to reconfigure or reinstall anything. Since it’s the same physical machine and printer, just a different OS, having the client work seamlessly across both would make the experience much smoother.
Suggestion: Allow multiple client instances (e.g. one on Windows, one on Linux) to be registered for the same printer, either by:

Letting both instances connect but only one be “active” at a time (auto-detecting which OS is currently running), or
Allowing the user to manually switch which client instance is treated as primary from the SimplyPrint dashboard

This would help other dual-boot users too, not just Bambu Lab owners — anyone who switches OSes on the same hardware and wants persistent printer management.

Technically allowed already - if you just dont keep both open at the same time, two clients can run the same printers; What’s currently stopping you?

so i run zorin os now and i setup both of them. zorin os first (linux) then windows. i went back to linux and i knew that it was running by going to localhost and it said the printers were pending so like it knew the access key and stuff but i just need to put in the pin code provided again.

You’ll need to copy the config over
