Abstract: A system and method for operating a supply station in a three-dimensional printer are provided. The system includes a control unit, including a processor to execute modules. An install module confirms parameters of a build material container after the build material container is secured into a supply station to determine if the parameters match expected parameters. The install module releases the build material container if the parameters do not match the expected parameters.
