Question: will this work for prints not started by Octoprint? #5

Sometimes I use the SD card and LCD control panel to print objects instead of starting the print through Octoprint. Will this plugin work in that situation? Or does it only work if I start the print process from Octoprint?

I have a Flashforge Creator Pro if that matters.

No, that will not work. Or at least I don't think it would. You can always try and let me know :) I don't print from SD and I don't have an LCD... in my opinion, neither are needed once you have OctoPrint

Ah okay. I think I'm ultimately going to go with a hardware sensor wired directly into my FFCP. Thanks for the answer!
