If you’ve been using 3D printers for a while, you’ll know there’s a way to remotely control prints, check on progress, and perhaps even optimize your printer’s movement for smoother running.

But how exactly can you do that? 

It’s impossible without getting slightly technical, but it’s all worth the faster print times and advanced motion control. The quickest answer is–Klipper firmware. 

Klipper is an open-source firmware based on Python developed to handle the advanced changes in 3D printing hardware. Normally, 3D printers come with a standard firmware hardcoded onto the on-board memory and any configuration change requires firmware installation, like solving a labyrinth. Instead, Klipper firmware can be edited, and modified and a simple device restart applies the changes.

It’s compatible with many 3D printers and you can check the complete list here. Klipper pairs with these common printers: 

• Creality 

• Sovol

• Pursa

• Anycubic

  You have set up Klipper and the Moonraker API correctly, and it is connected to your printer. An interface such as Mainsail/Fluidd is highly recommended.

What Is Remote Access Using Klipper?​

Remote access or remote controlling your 3D printer allows you to monitor (in real-time), control, manage print files, and receive updates about your print from a distance. Remote access using Klipper works through a web-based interface requiring your phone or computer and a 3D printer connected to the internet. 

That’s slightly unsecure, but there are other ways like port forwarding and bots and then there’s Obico. 

Obico offers everything that comes with remote access plus, smart monitoring, AI error detection, print optimization, file management, and cloud-based storage. It’s entirely open-source and you can even set up your own local server and have hybrid access or a fall-back option.

SOVOL SV06 ACE Klipper Integration​

Previous Sovol printers like the SV06 are based on a Marlin control board which runs entirely on the printer’s micro-controller. Marlin is the old architecture for 3D printers and faces performance issues because Marlin firmware does not meet the advanced hardware capabilities of printers. 

There are ways to upgrade to a Klipper firmware which involves using a Raspberry Pi controller, or a tablet. However, now you can also use Klipper touchscreens such as the one provided by Sovol which simplifies the upgrade. 

Sovol SV06 ACE comes with pre-installed Klipper integration, so you don’t have to go through the Raspberry Pi guides found on the internet for your Sovol printer.
