Requirements

Minimum:

  • Raspberry Pi 3
  • 8GB microSD card
  • Keyboard and video for first time setup

Recommended:

  • Raspberry Pi 4
  • 8GB Class 10 microSD card
  • Keyboard and video for first time setup

Quick Setup Guide

Flashing on Windows/Mac OS/Linux (Easy)

  1. Download and install balenaEtcher.
  2. Download the latest image from the releases section.
  3. Follow the on screen instructions in Etcher to burn the image to your microSD or USB drive.

Flashing in Mac OS/Linux/BSD (Recommended)

  1. Download the latest image from the releases section.
  2. Open a terminal and navigate to where you downloaded the image file.
  3. Ensure that xz is installed on your computer.
OS Command
Ubuntu/Debian apt install xz-utils
Arch/Manjaro pacman -S xz
Mac OS brew install xz
  1. Run xz -d -c IMAGE_NAME.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/sdX, replacing IMAGE_NAME and /dev/sdX with the appropriate paths, and adding flags per your preferences.

First Boot

  1. Connect an HDMI cable and a keyboard to your Raspberry Pi.
  2. Power on your Raspberry Pi and wait for it to boot.
  3. Once booted, you will be put into the first time setup, where you can configure networking, choose which services you want to run, etc.
  • Use the arrow keys to move the "cursor", Spacebar to toggle checkboxes, Tab to move the cursor between different sections, and Enter to continue.
  1. Once the first time setup is complete, the Raspberry Pi will reboot.

OctoPrint Setup

  • If the GUI is enabled, you can setup OctoPrint on the Raspberry Pi. You can also setup OctoPrint by opening up a web browser on another computer and navigating to https://RPI-IP, replacing RPI-IP with the IP address of your Raspberry Pi.
  • If MJPG-Streamer is enabled, you can put /webcam/?action=stream into the Stream URL box to enable it in OctoPrint.

Accessing OctoPrint

  • If OctoPrint is enabled, you can access it at https://RPI-IP, replacing RPI-IP with the IP address of your Raspberry Pi.
