OctoPrint plugin for the Micro 3D printer that provides a complete, platform independent alternative to the printer's official software
© 2015 Exploit Kings. All rights reserved.
You can install it with OctoPrint's built in plugin manager. The URL for that is https://github.com/donovan6000/M3D-Fio/archive/master.zip or you can install it manually with the command
pip install https://github.com/donovan6000/M3D-Fio/archive/master.zip
OctoPrint's autodetect serial port and baudrate feature doesn't work with the Micro 3D printer, so you'll need to manually set the baudrate to 115200
and the serial port to something like COMx
for Windows, /dev/ttyACMx
for Linux, or /dev/tty.usbmodemxxxx
for OS X.
If your using Windows and the printer isn't recognized in the device manager, then you'll need to install the drivers manually which are located in /drivers/Windows/
.
If you are using Linux, the 90-m3d-local.rules needs to applied in order to avoid issues. You can apply it with the following commands:
wget -O /etc/udev/rules.d/90-m3d-local.rules https://raw.githubusercontent.com/donovan6000/M3D-Fio/master/drivers/Linux/90-m3d-local.rules
sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
