AI Help

It sounds like you are trying to connect to the Raspberry Pi that is running Klipper remotely from another computer, but the school network is blocking non-school devices from accessing the network.

One option could be to create a separate network for the 3D printers that is not connected to the main school network. This way you can connect to the printers without any issues.

Another option could be to use a VPN service to connect to the school network remotely. However, you would need to get permission from the school IT department to set up the VPN and ensure that it is secure.

Lastly, you could consider using a USB drive to transfer the G-code files from your computer to the Raspberry Pi. This would eliminate the need for remote access altogether. You could then start the print jobs directly from the Raspberry Pi.

Overall, it's important to prioritize network security and follow school policies to avoid any potential issues.

Seperate network!

#

well how so?

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:46 PM

#

Also i honestly dont think you should flash klipper

#

Just flash octo

#

U dont needa reflash ALL the boards

#

And run octofarm

#

some of the printers use some very old firmware, and the slicers are hard to use.

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:48 PM

#

Just use prusaslicer and set to marlin legacy

#

And if thats the case klipper isnt supported

#

Also your probably voiding warranty

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

they dont use marlin legacy, they use some older gcode flavor

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

deft narwhal Also your probably voiding warranty

warranty is far gone :p

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

sacred orbit they dont use marlin legacy, they use some older gcode flavor

Theres nothing older than legacy lol

#

Its legacy

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

sacred orbit warranty is far gone :p

Still a pita

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

its like the makerbot gcode

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

Oh its makerbot

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:50 PM

#

yeah

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:50 PM

#

Yeah… your not getting klipper on that

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:50 PM

#

=/

#

fun

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:50 PM

#

Just try octo

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:50 PM

#

still want to manage the other printers

#

I have, not a fan of it, dont see the point of it tbh...

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:51 PM

#

If you want easier management thats what your going to get

#

Octo

#

Klipper will be a royal pain in the ass

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:51 PM

#

I love klipper

#

Ive used it for half a year now, barely any probs

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

Ive used it for a whole year

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

im considering just making a network that I could connect to

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

And i used octo for a year

#

How many machines are there

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

half and half for both

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

deft narwhal How many machines are there

4 minus makerbot

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

Yeah

#

Octofarm

#

What are they

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

2 of the e3ps have thermal runaway so thats fun

#

the other one is a dremel machine

#

def want at least the e3ps

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:53 PM

#

U might get octo on the e3ps but i wouldnt gamble on the dremels

#

Run octoprint man

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:53 PM

#

fair enough

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:53 PM

#

Klipper literally has no advantage

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:54 PM

#

I dont want to really -_-

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:54 PM

#

deft narwhal Klipper literally has no advantage

easier firmware mods

#

and also remote if I get it working

#

which is with octo but-

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:54 PM

#

Why would you want to change the firmware on a library machine?

#

Like so the librarians dont get bored?

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:55 PM

#

lol

#

no, just dont like marlin

#

I just need a way to access them either way

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:55 PM

#

Theres literally no difference

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:55 PM

#

if I choose klipper or octo

deft narwhal Apr 18, 2023, 11:56 PM

#

One is just a pain in the ass

sacred orbit Apr 18, 2023, 11:56 PM

#

anyways, I still need to figure a way to access it

#

Ive considered klipper screen or any alternative there is for octo, but I have no screen to use lmao
