A three-dimensional (3D) object printing process-level simulator including, in an example, a layer module for modeling a plurality of layers of a simulated 3D object to be built and a printing device controller to receive a number of simulated values from the layer module to simulate a 3D object printing process and adjust the 3D object printing process based on physical characteristics of a printing device associated with the printing device controller. A cyber-physical three-dimensional (3D) object printing simulator including, in an example, a printing device including a processor to send instructions describing how a simulated 3D object is to be printed and a layers module to simulate heat transfer from a plurality of layers in the 3D object to be printed based at least a density of the plurality of layers.
