Anyone know about the “palette” system and considered attempting to make it work with snapmaker 2.0? Even if I had to add a Bowden tube guide to help assure the spliced filament stayed together I might be interested… I just don’t know how much tinkering I’m up to myself so hoping I,m not the first. The rack of spools feeding this will be a chore too… > **[Palette 3 Pro](https://www.mosaicmfg.com/products/palette-3-pro)** > > Palette 3 Pro lets you print with up to eight materials on your 3D printer, with no modifications. Why Snapmaker and not one of the models they are already compatible with? Because it’s what I have. ---

I know there are already people using Octoprint with a Pi plugged into the USB. Now I have tried installing it in a docker container on my NAS, which works well. Only downside is it is looking for USB/serial port. If Luban can connect to SM2 over wifi, control the printer and send commands, I do not think it is an issue for a software like Octoprint to do something similar. Apart from putting up a request for… (Short version: Mosaic indicates that the two should work together) ---

Wow thank you I DID fail to search first. (Scurries off to read.) [Edit] Ugh…plowed thru the manual first… reading their forums now and getting very disillusioned… even sadder than ours. ---

I did but the Palette 3 pro. It is finicky on connecting (Have to turn things on in the right order and then wait the appropriate amount of time. I bought the P3pro a few months ago. Spent several hours on it and when it doesn’t jam, it does splice well but I didn’t get it to change colors in the exact right place. Seems that the distances are still wrong (and don’t adjust the way I expect them to) and I haven’t had time to work on it more. I can probably help you get connected but haven’t solved the switching color at the right time part yet. I would say skip it. ---

Appreciate the feedback! Helps me from chasing after a ‘dream’ that would become more of an irritant.
