Printerface is something I cooked up to allow me printing to my 3d printers (reprap's) with the browser. You connect a Raspberry pi to your printer and then this allows your printer to be autonomous and easily manageable from within any browser. Little video explaining the usage is on youtube: http://youtu.be/tsMdusrO6bk
