OctoPi for the Snapmaker?

New to OctoPi. In fact, I had just setup OctoPi last night and successfully did a test print. I do not have a webcam attached to my Pi yet, so I’m limited to sending print jobs and monitoring the print remotely via the dashboard or Cura.

I followed these directions provided and it worked after initial OctoPi setup through the dashboard.

@fio316a This is how OctoPi is setup for me if you want to compare to your setup:

  • Pi is powered by a dedicated power adapter.
  • Pi is connected to the USB-B port on the Snapmaker (white port on the controller).
  • No printer profiles setup on OctoPi.
  • Slicing is done on the desktop using Cura.
  • Prints are sent to Snapmaker using Cura using the “Connect to Octoprint” option.

There are a few other members who has more experience on OctoPi. @nmohnot @trampi3 care to chime in?
