Octoprint is an opensource software package that is most often run on a Raspberry Pi to provide wifi access to 3d printers. In this tutorial, I walk through the steps required to build am Octoprint System for my Creality Ender 3 V2 printers.
This is my second video about the Creality Ender 3 V2 and includes a detailed explanation about the process to upgrade the firmware on the printer using the builtin bootloader.
While I use an Ender 3 as an example this tutorial applies to any 3d Printer with a USB port and the appropriate firmware. This includes printers such as the Prusa i3 Mk3, the Monoprice Ultimate 2, Select Mini, and MP10 3d printers, the ANET ET4, and ANET ET5 and a range of additional 3d printers.
Here is a link to the device that blocks USB power I discussed in the video:
