Print finished successfully at {{ now().strftime('%H:%M') }}.

3D print complete

Sends a notification with an OctoPrint webcam snapshot to all mobile devices when a print finishes successfully.


Print passed the first few layers (Z crossed 1 mm).

3D print early check

Sends a webcam snapshot once per print when Z crosses 1.0 mm while printing, approximating layers 4-5 at typical 0.2-0.28 mm layer heights.
