![]() ![]() Marlin Firmware (specific to your 3D printer) -> we need to make slight adjustments I will explain why later on.Toshiba FlashAir W-03 8GB/16GB/32GB -> This will be the Wi-Fi module/memory card that we will be going to use to interface between our computer and our printer.This is the list of things you need to accomplish this tutorial. The needs for our 3D Printer space is been able to "connect" 5-6 printers per computer (We tried USB printing and it is not reliable specially when you have multiple printers), interact less physically with the SD Card (mostly to prevent the lost or damage of the SD Card and its port slots), establish easy steps and processes to teach users and future volunteers how to be 3D Printing savvy. Despite the Afinias and Up Minis having the friendliest interface, we are looking to replace them and standardize our line with more Ultimaker 2+ because of their reliability, quality, and volume size. ![]() The current line of printers at the Invention Studio are a combinations of Ultimaker 2+, Afinia H480, and UP Mini 2. Our goal is to create a user-friendly 3D Printer area for users to come and start their prints within minutes. ![]() The need for this hack is based on the high traffic of users that comes to the Invention Studio, the largest student run makerspace in the US, (over 100+ users weekly). This hack will work with any Marlin-Firmware based 3D Printer and I will assume that you have done any Arduino work before and/or any sort of programming. What I mean with this is loading your files from your Computer to the SD Card over Wi-Fi and only interfacing with the on-board screen to start your print I will be showing a small hack to make your 3D Printer Wi-Fi ready. Are you tired of having to print over USB or having to remove the SD Card constantly to load your files?, then this tutorial is the one for you. ![]()
