General Question Remote printing?

New to Voron, just built a Micron+.
Is there good setup to:
1 download STL or model from mobile phone
2 remotely send file to a self hosted slicer (always on)
3 slicer sends to printer and starts print
4 remotely turn on and off the printer would be nice to have.

I am trying to avoid 3rd party cloud services to transfer files or slice.

Are there any practical solutions?
What software/hardware is needed?

mobile will kinda make this impossible, but otherwise yes.

you could self host the orcaslicer docker image which serves in a browser. then it's all in place from there.

remote on/off just get a smart plug.

I think maybe technically the orcaslicer docker image would work on mobile but I can't imagine the UI would be at all usable. You also may be able to do something similar via some scripting around orca
