3D Printing remotely.

If you want to install OctoPrint using Docker, you can use the official image from the OctoPrint team, which works on different devices and OctoPrint versions. It has a file that makes it easy to run with docker-compose. You can read the instructions on how to use it on the website or on GitHub. You also need to ensure the USB controlled is passed through to the docker container so that your webcam and printer can connect and communicate with the application.

1. Follow the instructions on the screen to set up OctoPrint. You will need to give some information about your 3D printer, such as what kind it is, how big it is, what size nozzle it has, etc. You will also need to make a username and password for OctoPrint.
2. If you want, you can add plugins that enable more things you can do, like access your printer from anywhere, save your files online, make timelapse videos, etc.
3. Plug your 3D printer into your Raspberry Pi with a USB cable. You should see a button that says “Connect” on the top left corner of the OctoPrint web page. Click it to make OctoPrint talk to your printer.
4. You can now use OctoPrint to control your 3D printer from your browser. You can upload files, start prints, change settings, watch progress, see webcam feed, etc.
