ender 3 v3

[bhast2]

Is there any to use this script on the new Creality Ender 3 v3 it is pretty much a k1 but corexz but it is using the say screen and Creality OS. thank you

[TheWebMachine]

Highly doubtful. In part because it is coreXZ, many of the custom macros would need to be quite different.

There's nothing stopping someone from forking this project and creating an E3V3 version with properly customized scripts, however. 🤓

[Guilouz]

My script is compatible with KE Series. All K1 features not compatible with KE are not displayed in script.

[TheWebMachine]

There's the KE here:
https://www.creality.com/products/creality-ender-3-v3-ke

But I think they are referring to the slightly newer V3 (no additional suffix), which is basically a K1/K1C without the camera and enclosure:

I suppose your script would only need some minor rework, then. I forgot you support KE, another CoreXZ. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[bhast2]

Yes the printer I am talking about is the ender 3 v3. Not the KE or the SE

[bhast2]

So will it work for the new Ender 3 V3 or does something need to be done to it to work. Here is a video on it

I wanted to install Mainsail since I prefer that UI, so I ran this script against an up-to-date Ender 3 V3. Here's my experience.

1. The script runs but does not detect existing running Fluid, Moonraker, or Nginx.
2. I had to run the Install Moonraker/Nginx script before it would let me install Mainsail.
3. This broke the existing Moonraker and Fluid installations. I re-ran the script and removed Moonraker, Nginx, and Mainsail.
4. This left the printer's Web UI unusable. The existing Fluid and Moonraker had either been removed, or broken as part of the first installation.
5. I re-ran the installation script for Moonraker/Nginx. This time I got the Moonraker screen back on port 7125.
6. I reinstalled Fluid and Mainsail using the helper script. Both now work on their respective ports, 4408 and 4409.
7. I installed Mobileraker Companion for push notifications and that also seems to be working.
   Because it detects the machine as a KE (my guess is this is the fallback if it's not a K1/Max) there are no options to install things like KAMP.
   As of now, with limited testing, the printer has not exploded and both web front ends are working and displaying accurate print details. I have no idea what updating firmware will do later down the line, but I'm happy to have my Mainsail experience ready to go.

[bhast2]

A possible way to add this machine to the script so it doesn't think it is a KE? And sounds like a bit of a chance of messing up your printer by doing what @doubletaco did. I am getting my printer today and don't want to brick it lol

[doubletaco]

For what it's worth, my printer is working fine. Also nothing stopping us from manually installing KAMP. I did that too following the instructions in their github page: https://github.com/kyleisah/Klipper-Adaptive-Meshing-Purging
Just remember to add the relevant features to your START_PRINT macro in gcode_macros.cfg

[bhast2]

mind sharing you sharing your start_print macros before I take the jump? Thank you

[bhast2]

@Guilouz if there is anything you need from me to help you to add this printer to your wonderful script let me know.

[Guilouz]

It’s difficult to add support when i don’t have this machine. I have asked to Creality to send me one but not sure.

[bhast2]

Yeah I wasn't sure if I could supply the printer.cfg and other cfg files if that would help you.

[bhast2]

So I got your script to work somewhat. Moonraker and fluid installed and do did timelapse and they work just fine. I made sure I had backups of my cfg files before I started with the script. I have printed two items and it is working really well.

[bhast2]

So the ender 3v3 has the same start code as a k1 and k1 max. Please advise on how to add kamp to this. Thank you.

[doubletaco]

Assuming all your printer.cfg and KAMP_Settings.cfg stuff is set up, here are the changes I made. I'm using adaptive meshing, smart park, and line purging.

after ACCURATE_G28 add

BED_MESH_CLEAR
BED_MESH_CALIBRATE
SMART_PARK

then comment out CX_PRINT_DRAW_ONE_LINE and add LINE_PURGE under the commented out line.

[bhast2]

I didn't add SMART_PARK yet. but i was getting a temp error before the LINE_PURGE so here is my start_print macro, and it works great!!!!
