Most 3D printers really don’t draw a lot of power, but be aware that smart plugs are usually limited to 15 A. Some might be just 10 A. If you are thinking about using a smart plug to control your printer (and be sure it’s off) just look at the rating of the power supply of the printer ahead of time.

Can anyone comment on integration with Home Assistant, for whatever printer you’re recommending?
While I haven’t yet done homework on printing, I did like that Home Assistant has an OctoPrint integration so you can see or notify on printer status. It looks like the Prusa models, at least, are proprietary

There is a PrusaLink integration for Home Assistant, I'm using it.
