In working with small prints to learn about filament changing I noticed stutters and broken print. I thought the MK3 was supposed to be smart… Whew, that did it! Working, or maybe not?Įverything seemed to be working but my first six hour print job just stopped mid-job, nozzle frozen in the print. I found the setting to enable the rPi port and then found a posting on how to configure the communications port on the Zero as well as configure OctoPrint. I had already configured the Zero but in place it wasn’t communicating. Not too bad but not something I wanted to do again making it very concerning that the Zero was so inaccessible. Take off the cover, remove the board, and push the extra long pins I had to order special for this task through, then reassemble. Based on the warnings about the Pi Zero and not having a ‘supported’ build I was a little concerned. I had already setup manually in preparation so I was aware it had been 404 for a couple of weeks that I was aware of it. Then I read in the comments that it was being worked on and was expected in a few days.
I should have stopped when the image for the PiZeroW was 404 on the Prusa site, and I almost did. I didn’t want the Zero installed until I was sure the printer was working and it was nice to just follow their instructions, which are great, step-by-step. With my Prusa MK3 up and running I was ready to install the Pi-Zero W I had prepared.
