  • a three-dimensional printer;

    a coupling adapted to receive a supply of a build material;

    a tag sensor communicatively associated with the three-dimensional printer, the tag sensor configured to read data from a data tag associated with the supply of build material that characterizes at least one property of the build material; and

    a controller for the three-dimensional printer, the controller configured to control operation of the three-dimensional printer to fabricate an object, and the controller further configured to receive the data from the tag sensor and to determine an operational parameter for the three-dimensional printer based on the at least one property of the build material in the data.
