The Pizero only has MicroUSB ports, so you need connect this one with an OTG adapter to the “blue” data cable (USB2.0 TYPE B, the square port). This one will send Octoprint's instructions (GCODE) to the printer, in the same way your laptop would do. The second cable, located in the center, is the data port. You can also power it with a USB powerbank for your tests (no fan noise :) ) The one at the side of the case (right on the picture) is the “power” one, you simply connect it with a micro usb cable to the USB thumbdrive port on the A5/A3S : it'll power the pi.
Then put it in the PIZERO, boot it and verify it gets an ip adress (eg : in your router)īeware the PIZERO has two USB ports and you need them both Now - as covered in multiple other tutorials (eg ), simply find an image of Octoprint for Pi ( ) flash it on a MicroSD card ( 16 GB or more recommended )Īs the PIZERO doesn't know your network settings yet, mount the flash drive in a PC and edit the network config (įound in /boot/octopi-network.txt ) for your internal LAN's SSID and password.
