But it seems like Cura wants to pull in certain Digital Factory settings. It is also duplicating each normally connected printer as a "cloud" printer as well so my list essentially has a full set of duplicates. Some features (camera) are available on the cloud if the "cloud version" is selected, yet you can't tell which on is a "normal connected" printer and which one is a "cloud" printer until you select it and then see the tiny blue and white icon at the corner of the name.

· Why do we need Digital Factory and Cura?
I get your point. I'm doing both local and remote printing so I see the utility of Digital Factory. But when I'm on site, I would LOVE to see some input in Cura, input which is available only in Digital Factory. For example, there is a warning that appears when there is a mismatch between printheads and materials. It also appears on the printer itself, its true, but for local network usage, it would be great to have that warning in Cura. Heck, it could work even remotely.
Also, you're right, the list of printers is a mess, at least please show us clearly which is which.
LE: actually there is a warning in Cura, in the Monitor tab. Just noticed it

I think I will be dropping Digital Factory asap.
