Anyone running AstroPrint on a Raspberry Pi connected to a V3? I am trying to decide what to load on the Pi. Pros - Cons insights please.
Thank you,
Tim

Running Octoprint and love it. I pre-slice so I haven't used the integrated Cura engine much. Haven't tried any others options.

Thank you- I loaded Octopi and have it up and running. I have only been able to run the calibration script g-code as I get an error when I try to run G-code generated from Matter. Maybe the start - stop g-code needs to be looked at.

I am slicing with Kiss, but used Cura fine as well.

What is the error? OctoPi shouldn't care what's IN the gcode even if it's wrong.

I use OctoPi and slice with S3D. I like being able to check on it from my phone anywhere in the house. Now that I think about it I need to make a mount for the webcam but the empty can of duster works so well...

Ended up the error said the bed sensor was defective so I checked it with an ohm meter and reseated the bed thermistor connection to the Rambo. Problem solved- for now.
