Settings file locations

Post by Shizuma »

I have Repetier Host setup on my laptop but I have another computer I'd like to install Repetier Host on to use for printing and I was wondering if anyone knows where all the setting files for material, print settings, etc are so that I can copy them over from my laptop onto the other computer.

Slicer can export these settings.

For printer setup in Repetier (i.e. connection speed, printer geometry, etc) I'm not sure if this is a feature or not.


You could name your printer something unique and search the repetier folder for that name to see if a config file is generated.

Thanks, I'll try that when I get home. I haven't actually looked at it to see yet where they were and just thought about it while I was sitting here at work, and I wasn't sure if it was in files named what I named each setting, a generic config.ini type file, or embedded into the program in some other way.

I did try doing a search on what I named the printer profile, no luck, it must be in a separate generic config file.

In windows these are usually kept in a folder C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\Slic3r
This is Windows 7 and mileage may vary.

I haven't been able to find it on a mac, there are the traditional settings but launching Slicer in Repetier yields other things. I've looked in the Repetier Application contents (show contents), looked at PLIST files, etc...

I went on this quest myself and found that the settings for repetier are in the registry in Windows.

Here is the snippet from the repetier site.
Host settings

The host settings are stored in the windows registry or for linux users, in the $HOME/.mono directory. In Windows press Win+R and enter regedit as command. You see the registry tree to the left and to the right the values for the selected key folder. The host stores all it’s data in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Repetier and it’s subfolders. If you have a good working configuration, you can export that tree in the editor. You can also delete the Repetier key folder and the host will create a fresh one on the next startup. If you have a custom host version, the path is named according to the printer vendor and you should reinstall the host after deleting the key.
