🚨 One-Stop-Shop Klipper Configuration

This repository contains the OSS Klipper configuration that can be used with any printer running klipper.

Highlights

  • 💥 This Klipper configuration is an endpoint, meaning that it contains everything that you could possibly need in order to have an excellent Klipper experience! 💥
  • NEW Filament runout sensor usage implemented.
  • Minimum configuration settings for Mainsail/Fluiddpi to work.
  • SuperSlicer config bundle that contains the printer configuration, as well as what are considered by many to be the best print settings available for any FDM printer (Ellis' SuperSlicer Profiles). Find the differences between the different print setting profiles here. But basically, the 45 degree profile places the seam at the back.
  • Bed model and texture to use in SuperSlicer/PrusaSlicer.
  • Macros
    • Improved mechanical gantry calibration/G34 macro that provides the user audio feedback, and time to check the calibration. ⚠️ This is for i3 style printers only, see example video here.
    • Misc macros: PRINT_START, CANCEL_PRINT, PRINT_END, PAUSE, RESUME.
    • Parking macros (parks the printhead at various locations): PARKFRONT, PARKFRONTLOW, PARKREAR, PARKCENTER, PARKBED.
    • Load/unload filament macros.
    • Purge line macro.

To do:

  • Replace M109/M190 with TEMPERATURE_WAIT.
  • Get the Ellis TEST_SPEED macro working. ⚠️This works on Vorons only!.
  • Add information about directory structure.
  • Create FAQ section.
  • Get filament sensor working with hotend PCB.
  • Finalize filament sensor config and merge into master.
  • Create topic in Discussion section detailing how users should keep this repository in sync with their own Klipper config using git.
  • Explain PAUSE/RESUME extruder behaviour.
  • Integrate KAMP (Klipper Adaptive Meshing and Purging).
  • Add BEEP when filament needs changing/M600.

Installation Steps

Before You Begin

  • Know what you're getting into by reading this documentation fully!
  • It is assumed that you are connected to your host Raspberry Pi (or other host device) via SSH, and that your printer motherboard is connected to the host via USB.
  • It is assumed that the username on the host device is pi. If that is not the case, you will have to manually edit moonraker.conf and cfgs/misc-macros.cfg and change any mentions of /home/pi to /home/yourUserName.
  • It is assumed that you already have a working printer.cfg and you already have your printer up and running Klipper.
  • Your question has probably been answered already, but if it hasn't, please post in the Discussion section.
  • If you see any errors, or encounter any issues, please create an Issue, or a Pull request.
  • I would recommend searching for the word NOTE in this repository. There are roughly half a dozen short points amongst the various files that you should be aware of if you're using this configuration.

Download the Configuration

  1. Download the ZIP file containing the Klipper configuration.
  2. The parent folder in the ZIP is Sovol-SV06-firmware-any-printer. This is relevant in the next step.
  3. Extract only the contents of the parent folder into ~/printer_data/config.

💡 If you already have a moonraker.conf (which you probably do since you're already up and running Klipper), and you're not using a low powered device such as the RPi Zero, you need to simply paste the following into your moonraker.conf:

[file_manager]
enable_object_processing: True

Setup Instructions

Simply add [include ./osskc.cfg] somewhere at the top of your printer.cfg.

FAQ

How do I import a SuperSlicer configuration bundle (SuperSlicer_config_bundle.ini) into SuperSlicer?

Please see this discussion.

How do I print using SuperSlicer?

Please see this discussion.

When does beeping occur?

The printer will beep upon:

  • Filament runout.
  • Filament change/M600.
  • Upon PRINT_END.
  • MECHANICAL_GANTRY_CALIBRATION/G34.
How do I disable beeping?

Make the following changes according to your needs. All beeping will be disabled except during gantry calibration.

File cfgs/misc-macros.cfg
Section [gcode_macro _globals]
Variable variable_beeping_enabled
Disable beeping 0
Enable beeping 1
I want to use a filament sensor. How do I set it up?

You can find information about the physical setup here.

I have a simple filament sensor connected. How do I enable/disable it?

Make the following changes according to your needs.

File cfgs/misc-macros.cfg
Section [gcode_macro _globals]
Variable variable_filament_sensor_enabled
Disable sensor 0
Enable sensor 1
My filament runout sensor works, but I just started a print without any filament loaded. What gives?

A simple runout sensor can only detect a change in state. So, if you start a print without filament loaded, the printer will not know that there is no filament loaded. You should test your sensor by having filament loaded, starting a print, then cutting the filament. The expected behaviour is that the print will pause, and as long as you have beeping enabled, you will hear 3 annoying beeps.
