makerbase-mks / MKS-PI

As we all know, the Klipper firmware has the advantages of high printing speed, high precision, and the ability to use the web page to control the printer, etc. MKS PI is a high-end microcomputer board designed by makerbase to replace the Raspberry Pi for the convenience of 3D printing users to use the Klipper firmware. In terms of hardware, MKS PI has a powerful 4-core 64-bit SOC onboard, with 1GBytes of DDR3 memory, supports HDMI screen interface and PI-TS35 screen interface, provides Ethernet port, 3-channel USB interfaces (can be connected to a 3D printer main board, USB Wireless network card, USB camera, U disk, USB keyboard and mouse, etc.); In terms of software, Makerbase provides a complete Klipper firmware transplanted based on the Armbian desktop system, and directly supports klipperScreen. Users only need to download the image file provided by Makerbase, burn it to the TF card, without a lot of construction work, use the usb port or serial port to connect your main board, configure the parameters on the webpage, and you can use the Klipper firmware happily!

possible use with ender 3v2 ? #50

Hi team, thanks for the great work. I have an Ender 3v2 and wondering that is there a way to use MKS-PI with Ender 3v2 to run Klipper. If it possible, is there any document to do that? Thank you so much !

MKS Pi can run any 3d printer which board can have Klipper flashed in its MCU.

But I'd recommend you to use another SBC with more mature Linux system, like Orange Pi Zero 2.

See the other threads and our struggle to get MKS Pi work properly with touchscreen, input shapping and wi-fi.

I have it running on a E3 v2 with sprite extruder and adxl345 plus USB webcam. Sure, the MKS pi could use a more recent and refined OS build but then we have these guys doing exactly what MKS should have done already . I have no problems with input shaping and In fact I can do 170mm/s at 5k accel and get better results than anything 50mm/s I have ever achieved with marlin. If you need a config file or some help just ask.

The best document is klipper install and config guide https://www.klipper3d.org/Installation.html
