This one is using an Allwinner H616 CPU that's a 64bits ARM CPU. If I were you, I'd choose the 1GB version (even if it's a bit more expensive than the 512MB version).ĭon't be mistaken by all the other board from Orange Pi (like the Zero, the Zero+, the Zero+2). You'll need a SBC (single board computer) and, currently, the best deal is the Orange Pi Zero 2.
Instead, I'm explaining here how to get the same features with an Orange Pi Zero 2 which is smaller, faster and cheaper. Also Raspberry Pi model 3 is a bit outdated now. All in all, it'll cost around 50€ for the board + casing and almost the same for the Raspicam here. However, this means you'll need to source a Raspberry Pi, a casing, likely the Raspicam also, and this is not cheap. Many will install Octoprint on a Raspberry Pi (minimum Raspberry Pi 3 is required here) either manually, or by downloading a prebuild image (called OctoPi). Octoprint is a HTTP server software that's expected to run on a small computer. Optionally, get an alert if the printer starts to print spaghetti.Create nice timelapses from your prints.Send file to print without having to leave your computer.3D printer print monitoring (from anywhere, on your smartphone for example).Yet, you now find very painful to have to remove the SD card each time, insert in the SD card reader, plug on your computer, open Cura or whatever other slicer you might be using, slice and save on the SD card and put back the SD card again in the printer then select the file to print, each time you want to start a new print. Let's say you've bought and built a new 3D printer, and started printing stuff like crazy. How to install Octoprint on an Orange Pi Zero 2 Why ?
