Frequently asked questions
Which wholesalers is PlotonIQ connected to?
We are currently working on API integrations with major print media wholesalers. Until then, the AI uses maintained price lists that are updated regularly.
Can I set my own printer prices?
Yes, you can set custom m² prices per material for each of your printers (Roland, Mimaki, HP etc.).
Are there hints for material utilisation?
Yes — PlotonIQ shows hints for material utilisation on the quote (e.g. when several designs could fit on a standard panel). You decide how to calculate.
Does PlotonIQ also support textile printing?
In principle yes — you can set up textile media as custom materials. Specific finishing (seams, keder) can be added as a custom item.
