Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and methods to track use of print filament wound on a print spool on a printer in an additive manufacturing print. Included are: an identifier associated with the print spool; a network ledger comprising at least the identifier, prior ones of the plurality of additive manufacturing prints using the 3D print filament, and authorized ones of the at least one printer acceptable to run enhanced print algorithms during ones of the plurality of additive manufacturing prints; a confirmation block in the ledger of a sufficient amount of the print filament on the print spool to execute a current one of the plurality of manufacturing prints; a controller for executing the current one of the plurality of manufacturing prints including the enhanced print algorithms; and an update block generator for generating an update block to the ledger confirming the amount of the print filament used corresponded to the identifier.
