Hi! I'm 72 and just getting back into 3D printing. I taught it in one of my senior shop classes for a while before I retired in '17. BOY!! Have things advanced.?! I got a Raspberry Pi 4b at home in Oz but it was quite a bit more expensive down here! I've struggled to understand how to connect the Pi to my Creality CR10 for a few months. Every other vid I've sat through omits the simple but VITAL step of plugging the Pi into my printer's brain with the USB cable supplied with my Pi starter kit!! Many vids ask you to dismantle and hard wire stuff on the mothewrboard....and they skip the simple step you showed me. Thanks a lot for your easy to follow guide to getting online with my print capability. I'll let you know how I progress....or not!!
It depends on if your printer supports a USB connection though, many enthusiast printers (versus user-friendly mainstream ones) may not, so you would need to wire directly to the controller as you described. Of course, even more modern printers now don't support either of those, you must use their built-in Wi-Fi capabilities or an app to manage them!
Thanks - watched this once and got my system working first time with octoprint. Using a 3b+ and a apare webcam. Added in Octolapse and made first cool time lapse
Like your videos Nils ( Nordic ancestors?) I’m preparing for my first 3D printer and really appreciate your down to earth advices and reviews. Keep the comin as U got yourself a new subscriber
Thank you. I know you can hook up 2 printers to 1 Pi, but before knowing that I purchased 2 Pi. Just assigned different IP address and they work just fine. And for $25 per Pi, it was easier then trying to get them on one and their cameras (which I tried and had to re-image the SD Card).
so im new to printing. got a Longer LK5 pro set up. got octo print set up. sliced the pi enclosure print in cura and estimated a 5 hour print. Loaded it into octoprint and started printing and is now saying 17 hours. is this user error or a common issue?
They can be off from one another but that discrepancy is massive. Fortunately, there are OctoPrint Plugins to help. I've seen a few but here's one you can try. plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/PrintTimeGenius/
@@youswizz1 yeah print genius helped a lot. Running a 4gb pi4. Just printed something that was 43 hours quoted by print genius and it was exactly what it quoted for.
Neat video, thanks. Soon I will need it. (waiting for my RP4 to arrive, will be here only in a few weeks.. due to the shortage of chips, there is almost no RP available on the original 35$ price, today the prices are 4 times larger. Question: do you know Arc Welder tool/plugin for octoprint? (allows to smoth printing) Do you have any advise on it? Greetings from the Galilee.
Hello in Galilee! I haven’t tried the Arc Welder plug-in but I’ve been curious about it so I’ll need to look into it. Also, Octoprint has updated their install process since I produced this video so be sure to check their site when you get your pi.
thank you for making this look so easy to do.. just looking into getting a PI but i have 2 printers, So do i need a PI for each printer or will one run both & do timelapse to have a camera on each printer ??? thanks
While I haven't tried it myself, you definitely can run more than one printer off of one Pi. If you want to do that, I would suggest getting one of the more recent releases of the Pi with some decent RAM. I have had as many as 3 Pis running at a time, each with one printer hooked up. Then you can just set their host address to octopi2.local, octopi3.local, etc. Either way, maybe take a look into the multi-printer options to see what their limitations might be.
Do you have any recommendations on how to access the interface while not on your home network? I have read where there are a slew of security issues for this, but I am wanting to be able to monitor/control my prints from work.
I believe I did this video entirely with Quicktime Player. Just open it up (it's installed on every Mac), go to File > New Screen Recording, and select your options from the bottom of the screen. It's not perfect and has caused issues for me before but it's free and built-in, which is nice.
Great video, I am ordering my first Raspberry Pi today. Question, what is the difference between OctoPrint and OctoFarm. I have 2 printers right now and plan to buy more, my goal would to be to run a 10 printer farm.
Having issues w/ install. I purchased a CanaKit off of Amazon. It is a PI 4B w/ 64 gig SD. After flashing card w/ Etcher with latest OctoPrint. I see code load , then I all I see is a blank screen. Is Octoprint a stand alone modified OS for the PI
Why does the GUI on my install have a black background and a blue header? Manual controls work correctly, I can't find certain settings, etc... where did I mess up???
I'm thinking about getting into 3d printing, what printers would you recommend? I want to make gifts and tailwings (they're made out of carbon fiber) for my hydrofoil.
has the pricing changed? i am worried of buying a used one and the Pi's on Amazon are running close to $200-$250 for the maxed-out ones. any idea where to get a better deal?
I followed all your steps, but there must be something funky on my PC (Dell). Everything works until I try to connect the PC to the Pi. I’ve tried re-doing everything from scratch, made SURE each component is connected to my WiFi, double checked IP address, changed micro SD card, installed Bonjour on the PC, and even loaded iTunes (because it uses Bonjour), but still can’t get the PC to see the Pi via the IP address or local. Any suggestions?
bummer they must have changed something. that octopi-wpa-supplicant.txt file isnt in that boot folder when you flash the os to a micro sd anymore. they've switched to their own software that saves the whole step of downloading, unzipping, and flashing as well. i've searched the boot folder and the overlays folder like crazy looking for that wpa sup file and its just not there. is there another way to set the internet access up?
I could not find a raspberry pie less than 140 bucks. I ended up having to buy the pi400 cause I wasn’t paying scalper prices. Hopefully it works okay when it gets here
What I use almost exclusively is a service called TeamViewer. It’s free for personal use but does require that you have a computer at home, on the same network, to remote into. Another one is called The Spaghetti Detective but I believe they charge a monthly fee. I believe there are others but since I have a computer that’s always on at home, I just use TeamViewer.
How did you install the camera? Does it require additional changes before you turn it to the SD card or after the SD card. Where is it configured directly in.
If your camera / webcam is one of the plug n play cameras like many webcams are, you don't need to do anything but plug it in to the Raspberry Pi and restart the Pi. You can check out the compatibility list here: community.octoprint.org/t/usb-webcams-known-to-work-with-mjpg-streamer/21149
@@The3DPrintingZone ok thanks. I got it all working. I've also printed out a nice pi case and designed a mount for my camera that holds the ribbon cable as well. I'll leave a comment with a link to thingiverse when Im done tweaking it.. One more question... Where does Octoprint store the images captured by the time lapse plugin? I'm guessing it saves it somewhere on the SD card? If so do you know the location? Also, Could it be changed to save it to a networked shared drive? That way it would free up resources on the pie and not utilize storage space on the SD card.
@@jameswiz Hey James, nice work on getting it up and running! I don't actually know where the images are stored on the SD Card, actually. I just grab them from the time lapse tab in OctoPrint and then download/export them as needed. I'm certain there's a line of code somewhere in the OctoPrint image that dictates where the files are to be stored but you'd probably have to do a bit of digging to find and alter that.
@@The3DPrintingZone oh okay. Well if I do find it and figure out a way to make it save to a network storage drive I will be sure to let you know. or maybe I'll even make my own RUclips video showing how to do it. Lol.. yeah right.
I've been trying for the last three days to get octoprint on to my rpi but to no avail. I can see my rPi on my network but when i try to load octopi I can't. Whatever I try, arghhh! QUESTION. Do I need the printer plugged in? Thanks
Great Video! - I just have a few questions around the Pi. I've recently discovered a very old 2011, what I believe to be PI 1B in my loft. Will this be sufficient for running octoprint with a camera? From some of my other research people were saying it had issues, but seeing as you displayed one, I wanted to get your opinion.
I'm almost certain I used a 1B for my first OctoPi setup but I could be wrong. I'd say give it a go and see if it works. OctoPi's website lists the 3B or newer as compatible and says "Expect print artifacts and long loading times with other options, especially when adding a webcam or installing third party plugins"
If you’re just running one printer, any of them will do. If you hook up more than one, more memory will help. You can easily get the lowest amount of memory and it will work just great.
I have two Raspberries, Pi 3 B+ with 2GB ram and Pi 4 B+ with 4GB. I noticed between two. I had Pi 4 running on Octoprint. then next day, I decided to swap to Pi 3 (I just simply swap Octopi formatted SDHC card and I wanted to use Pi 4 as my "desktop" cuz my son took my Doz' system). Now I started to notice that when I want to adjust temp, upload file from my laptop, it did not respond asap. I went down and check the printer. it show it's warming up but not on Octoprint Server. about min later it finally updated and showing temp and nozzle finally heating up then started to print. With Pi 4, it's quick and responsive. Not sure if that have to do with me swapping SDHC that was set for Pi 4 when it's plugged to Pi3.
That’s odd. I have used older 3Bs and even older Pi’s and they’ve all been snappy and responsive. Might be worth setting it up fresh to see. You definitely shouldn’t need a 4 to get a fast response.
@@The3DPrintingZone You are correct, that could be that performance lag due to swapping SDHC from RPI4 to RPI3 would cause it. I will reformat and fresh reinstall for RPI3 only. I agree that RPI3 is good enough for Octoprint. I was using RPI4 as mini desktop pc cuz my son 'borrowed" my PC until he have $$ to build his own system. Love RPI4 and watch movie via Tubi and its video is smoother than RPI3. Thankyou for advice!
Lololol I thought I never had to pick another pi up again and do a bunch of bullshit on it.........and then I need another one for 3D printing. You win this round raspberry pi
I followed these steps but had zero luck ($150 later due to Pi prices). I downloaded Bonjour for Windows, put in the address, nothing happens. There's nothing on my 3D printer either. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? (I will also add that the steps to put Octoprint on the SD card are VERY different now. You cannot do it the way you demonstrated in the video.)
A couple of things to check. 1) Make certain you have the correct IP Address for the Pi. If you have a way to verify that with your router interface, that will help. Along those lines, 2) you can a monitor into the Pi temporarily to read the output from it. That should give you a decent idea of what's going on. These things change all the time so, to your point, you may need to do some digging around to troubleshoot with today's version of the install. Best of luck!
After the file has extracted there will be a single file folder come from that. Open that file from the folder and use the one file. I was making the mistake of clicking on the folder that was extracted when I needed to click the folder to get out the file and use it.

i usually enjoy these videos but that music had me lgoing crazy cuz i though somethiung else was playing it. its too distracting when im trying to listen to what youre saying. mainly because it was terrible
Content good - at least the little I could stand to sit through. Incredibly distracting/obnoxious drumbeat soundtrack crap forced me to choose between bailing out at under a minute, or trying to reach through the screen and choke something. WTF is it that makes people think there needs to be some stupid background music (that's *NEVER* actually in the background, and is only VERY rarely anything fit to be called "music") on an instructional video???
I finally got it by rewatching the video over and over. Lol👍👍 thank you.
I was thinking This is going to be a LOT of steps until I realized my printer doesn't have a usb b connection so I'm already done! :)
And now print a case for the raspberry pi!

When you said "don't use Notepad" did you really mean "don't use WORD"? I thought that Notepad would be the ideal "basic" text editor for the job.

Notepad++ on the other hand has a setting to turn this stupidity off just like the stupid text editor he showed on his stupid mac.

can you just use the raspberry pi and not any other hardware for the 3d printer, i.e. the boards that it comes with?
no talking about power off corupting sd card here :S
Stating that you people will need a USB A to B cable is not true for all printers.
Do you know what I would need for a ender 3 pro?
What would you need if a printer has a USB C Port? (Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo)
Don't you mean not to use WORDpad not NOTEpad?
Actually they go up to > $200 today, but stocks are supposed to be replenished by mid-year and hopefully the scalpers will fade into oblivion
i usually enjoy these videos but that music had me lgoing crazy cuz i though somethiung else was playing it. its too distracting when im trying to listen to what youre saying. mainly because it was terrible
Content good - at least the little I could stand to sit through. Incredibly distracting/obnoxious drumbeat soundtrack crap forced me to choose between bailing out at under a minute, or trying to reach through the screen and choke something. WTF is it that makes people think there needs to be some stupid background music (that's *NEVER* actually in the background, and is only VERY rarely anything fit to be called "music") on an instructional video???
this video is outdated and doesn't work
I miss the days when you could hit download and install and be done. There’s so much extra shit with this, you need to be IT guy to figure it out lol
Wtf is that popping in audio
