I attempted to run OctoPrint today on my Win10 PC at work.

I attempted to run OctoPrint today on my Win10 PC at work. I made it through Step: 6 from (https://github.com/foosel/OctoPrint/wiki/Setup-on-Windows) and could not get Octoprint to start from using Step: 7 “C:\Octoprint>octoprint”

The first time I tried, I did have to allow permissions for my network, but after the second through fifteenth attempts, the command screen gave the typical “wall of text” but I never got a window for OctoPrint to pop up.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

OctoPrint runs on the BeagleBone, no need to install any software! Or am I missing something?

Elias, I may have misunderstood what i saw… I was reading about OctoPrint and saw a guide to “Setup on Windows”… I thought I’d give it a shot… it was working great up to the last step, lol

I was just assuming there would have to be some kind of software installed on the PC to control the printer from my PC’s browser.

I’m a civil engineer… I can build you a bridge, but when it comes to this stuff it’s a little tricky for me.

Hehe, well rest assured, once you have the printer set up (there is the issue of flashing the eMMC) all units with a browser in your network should have access to the printer, no software needed!

OK, cool… I’ll order the BBB today and start cramming all of this info, lol… is it possible to work with the BBB before I have the Replicate?

BBB should be here tomorrow and I’m not entirely sure if there is a micro sd card included. I’m going to pick one up at Best Buy and get it loaded with Kamikaze. Are there any suggestions/requirements as far as capacity/speed/class?

4GB og you can find it!

I have BBB and flashed SD Card ready with Kamikaze 1.1.0… I just want to verify if it is possible to flash the BBB with Kamikaze before I have the Replicape installed, and if there is any functionality with the software.

Yes! That works fine
