Final answer:

MakerBot Desktop interprets the STL file type for printing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The file type that our 3D printing software MakerBot Desktop interprets for printing is STL. It stands for Standard Tessellation Language and is widely used in the 3D printing industry as it contains a 3D model's geometry and surface information. MakerBot Desktop can import STL files and convert them into instructions for the 3D printer to create the object layer by layer.
