How to Upgrade to Klipper on any Ender 3 for High Performance

i'm installing it on a thin client right now, a used wyse 5060 is cheaper than a pi 4 and more powerful + more expandable. only thing you really miss out on is the GPIO pins and full software support

[@AdrianoCasemiro]

This tutorial is a must. Brilliant rhythm, almost a speed run, but that's what the pause button is for. Currently I am on Sonic Pad + Ender 3 S1. Went the lazy way, I must confess. I can't stress this enough, Klipper is the best upgrade one can make on a stock 3d printer.

[@hd-be7di]

Klipper vs direct drive you still chose Klipper first?

[@ReinaldoJ_AF]

​@@hd-be7diI'm kinda sure that you can use a direct drive and klipper at the same time, yet, I might argue, changing the Bowden to a direct drive it's a change, not a upgrade, klipper is, in it's messy way, an upgrade

[@hd-be7di]

@@ReinaldoJ_AF Bowden is garbage. I'd rather have Marlin with direct drive than Klipper with bowden.

thanks for an excellent step by step guide, just migrated my ender3 - 2018 to klipper and mainsail, didn't use a pi but an HP Thinclient T520, first print ongoing.

[@danielpereda3724]

With the Creality 4.2.2 board? I ask you because I'm having problems with it right now. I'm using the configuration provided by the video (using the Ender3v2 configuration) for the Ender 3 with 4.2.2, but it doesn't work. My Ender 3 freezes with the blue screen on. I tried using the configuration provided by GitHub, but it gives me a .elf.hex file that the printer doesn't even recognize. I'm also using a laptop

[@henrikbakk1]

Thanks so much for this video - extremely information dense, and very high SNR! Great you cover multiple methods & mainboard configs, too. Was getting ready for a new printer, but feel I got that "for free" (no new HW, just a few hours invested) just by getting Klipper (and tuning a bit). Faster *and* much better prints now.

[@iamsmashy]

Great tutorial. I had trouble getting klipper to flash on my ender 3 pro with 4.2.2 board (blue screen, which is okay but I couldn't get the MCU id). After I did the following it seemed to work (3 commands): cd ~/klipper/ make menuconfig sudo service klipper stop make flash sudo service klipper start sudo usermod -a -G tty pi Found this on Klippers website about building the micro controller code. Using a different usb cord also seemed to be necessary. Hopefully this is helpful for someone else too :)

[@TheThouZands]

trieed it but still doesn't work, maybe it is because i'm in ubuntu, but i also have the same printer

[@iamsmashy]

@@TheThouZands try a high quality cable. Try like 4 or 5 before you rule it out, that prevented me before this iirc

[@TheThouZands]

@@iamsmashy had seen that problem, but i tried 6 and none worked, figured out it was a problem with the OS, there are solutions directly for debian but not for Ubuntu, and i just installed linux only for printing, so i dont know shit about it as to translate the solution, so right now im installing debian lmfaoo

[@dragosshdc]

this worked, make sure to do a "make clean" before just in case

[@Framed_Niner]

After trying many tutorials that did nothing for me, this one finally worked! I guess it was the main board that caused me so much grief, but that issue is history thanks to your tutorial. Thanks!

This is the best video on the subject that ties it all together. I had spent many hours on other bits and piece of older videos without success. Once I found this video, I restarted the complete install from the start and ended with a functioning Klipper for my CR10S Pro V2 in very short time. Thank you!

[@diogorodrigues1571]

Hey did you instaled it in your cr10? how it went?

[@grindsman22]

@@diogorodrigues1571 Yes I did. It was very challenging, if you miss a step or make a mistake at any stage of the process, it won't work and it's best to start again from the start. I had to design a housing for the CB1 Pi, new BTT SKR Mini 3.0 motherboard, plus touch screen, it was so satisfying when I managed to print something,and it's so much quieter. Klipper keeps getting updated and unfortunately after having a working webcam, an update stopped it working. the coding takes a while to understand but you get used to it and the Klipper forum is very helpful.

[@jeffarcher8827]

Thank you for this guide it definitely helped although the switching between methods/boards did cause some confusion, I would suggest creating a separate guide for mainsail and fluidd with all the boards. Also FYI there are a few errors on this guide for the SKR E3 v2. You cannot upload klipper via usb onto the board, it must be done via SD card and the .bin name must be firmware.bin, not klipper.bin

[@Vector3DP]

Everything I did in this guide I did complete on the boards so it's all possible as shown unless they have updated it and removed that function but that seems unlikely.

For the price of a Pi today, I'd upgrade the board to a Manta M4P + CB1 to run klipper. Probably cost you half as much of a Pi.

[@markusfpv1349]

I can recommend Rock CM with manta m4p, it is a bit more painfull to get klipper installed as it requires more certificates, but once you got that figured out rest is a breeze. Also it is in stock, so no overpriced scammers/no stock issues.

FYI, when you suggest to NOT install the macros, this results in the mainsail.cfg file being missing. If you run through the install again in KIAUH then the only prompt is to install the macros. Doing so will add the mainsail.cfg file. I saw some comments below about a missing fluidd.cfg and thought perhaps there was something similar happening on the fluidd side. Hope this helps someone.

@@Vector3DP Can I offer a suggestion? Find a way to show the section on editing the cfg file in a more user-friendly way. Your video is daunting and possibly intimidating to any users who are not familiar with Linux (which I work with daily, so this is no big deal).

[@markusgutendorff2684]

one of the best tutoral i've seen. I do already have klipper installed on a pi, but never got round to actuality use it. I have a Anet a8 plus running with ramps 1.6 and Marlin 2.x. But an 8bit ender3 and anet a8 plus are very similar, so maybe not too much work to alter confiq to work from this tutorial. Is it possible to run klipper in a local network rather wifi ? I work at a Highschool and we a not allowed to use wifi or any remote control. Which is the reason for me abandoning the project.

[@thedankduck0218]

I have the same Ender 3 neo with the 4.2.2 main board, I had an issue with the probe not working and saying “failed to verify sensor state”. How I fix it was instead of using the bed_mesh, safe_z_home, and bltouch sections from the ender 3 s1 config I used those sections from the neo v2 config. Still swapping Probe_in and probe_out .

@Vector3DP Ahh, just the video I was looking for. Would you recommend upgrading the board on a Max Neo with an SKR MINI E3 V3 to run Klipper? Or is the V2 good enough?

[@ellafoxoo]

I think a better focus of this video title/intro would definitely have been more on the reliability of Kipper for the Ender 3 series, than on performance printing. Creality's version of Marlin is a mess internally, so flashing anything like stock Marlin or Klipper brings a huge improvement to bug squashing. Nonetheless, a good guide 😃

[@Vector3DP]

That's true of most budget bed singers I think, very buggy modifications. I just think performance is more relatable to more people. Maybe..🤔

[@daliasprints9798]

@@Vector3DP It's not just performance but quality at performance. Unless you're running the stock firmware without input shaping and pressure advance miserably slow, the quality is abysmal. Ringo all over and bulging corners and seams. Klipper lets you get perfect quality at same speed or nearly perfect a ton faster.

I have M8P with CB1 on a Voron. And I have Duet 2 Wifi on my old Delta anycubic. Duet wifi 2 is 170 bucks .. klipper costed me 102... With more drivers on it and better processors and the wire pins are higher quality. And I have to say, klipper programming is a lot more advanced, and user friendly. Lots of options for you available including using USB cameras, remote control etc .. My duet 2 wifi is up to date, it sometimes still have glitches, it's not as fast on CPU power as klipper... Long story short duet sucks and overpriced. Duet 3 is almost 260 bucks. If you want to tell me klipper boards are expensive then idk what you expecting.. 100 bucks for most expensive klipper board isn't expensive. Especially when it comes with 8 drivers and raspberry pie. Any one looking to upgrade, buy the klipper board you will love it.

I do really like this guide but. Is it worth it do you really get better performance with stock hotend and extruder, if so how much quicker is it. If there is not much difference then, I’m not being cheeky, but if there is not much difference I do not see the point of going to all this hassle. So is it an improvement?

[@Vector3DP]

Definitely an improvement with the capability of Input shaping for higher accelerations, more advanced and faster tuning options, less buggy than modified marlin versions. Nothing says you can't upgrade the hotend too though. You also get web interface and monitoring, webcam ability etc. The list goes on. Klipper brings A LOT of features to a basic printer.

[@Vector3DP]

Also, long detailed guides make it seem harder than it is.

[@paulmilne3038]

I build a Voron following your video and a couple of others and it’s sitting in the living room gathering dust, never got it to run, it could be the wiring it could be klipper but it’s beyond me, steep learning curve. Do you not also have input shaping on marlin now seemed to recall reading that somewhere. Klipper has a lot going for it I agree and like the video but unless it makes it possible to print say 50% faster I am not even going to try it, cracking video though.

I tryed the GPIO pin !PA14 and i got an error thtat it couldn't creat the klipper.bin file. Now i'm using the pins: !P3.26, !P3.25, !P1.18, !P1.19, !P2.13" and i'm getting the error of the MCU. Can anyone help me on this pls. Thanks in advance

I have creality 1.1.5 board. is the process same as 1.1.3 board?

[@yopi1496]

found out its the same process

[@MegaMaskedrider]

Klipper documentation recommends using OctoPi, so it seems mainsail OS is outdated?

[@Vector3DP]

Other way around. Octopi is old, mainsail is new.

[@MegaMaskedrider]

@@Vector3DP ok, then klipper website needs to be updated since they mention octopi installation there... ^^

I am working on an Ender 3 Pro that I have modded to the 4.2.7 silent board, V2 interface, a sprite upgrade direct drive extruder and a CR touch. Is the process the same as for the 4.2.2 board?

[@spencerstaton5879]

Ok, I discovered that the screen won't work with Klipper. However, I am unable to get the web interface to do anything to the printer after following the video. Any advice on that? Edit: It will heat up the hot end and the bed, but I can't get the stepper motors to work. Edit 2: I had the wrong pinout since I followed the video exactly. I got the pin out for the 4.2.7 and now it works.

Great tutorial! I hope you talk about calibrate e-step, and find the proper rotation distance on Ender 3 on future tutorials. I'm having a hard time trying to tune this.

[@justmilo8694]

do i have to chnage anything if i have a sprite extruder pro? (ender 3 v2 V4.2.2)

[@dipaksutar123]

I am getting error like "Bl touch failed to verify sensor state" I am using CR touch ender 3 pro. can you provide printer.cfg file?

[@markusamz]

Does this tutorial also works for Enders 3 S1 Pro?

[@tribar0913]

heplt me so much cause theres no other tutorial for the ender 3 nneo

[@melepeta8937]

I"m on 23 minute of the video and I encountered a problem. I have ender 3 neo with stock crtouch, but for some reason when I tried to home my printer the console outputs "BLTouch failed to verify sensor state". What should i do?

[@JasonCyr13]

After I had the same issue, I watched another setup video. The guy in that one used the Ender3 V2 Neo definition. The BLTouch section had the following pinouts: sensor_pin: ^PB1 control_pin: PB0 I think the carat was the difference and now that it works, I’m not changing it. Hope this helps!

[@ioannisevgeniou9622]

hi i have ender3 with 4.2.2. but not have auto bed, where find settings?

[@echotree5482]

Shameless plug for BIQU and BTT here, they have an SBC out called the BTT Pi v1.2 that works for klipper
