Initial Configuration

Calibrating Redeem for your 3D printer’s hardware.

There are three levels of configuration files:

default.cfg defines all of the parameters. this should not be modified.
printer.cfg references a standard set of configuration for specific types of printers
local.cfg any additional changes needed for your local setup

Any settings defined in local.cfg overrides the values in printer.cfg and default.cfg.

Any settings defined in printer.cfg take precedence over default.cfg.

Currently, Replicape ships with printer configuration files for:

  • Kossel K250000
  • Kossel Mini
  • Makerbot Cupcake
  • Max Core XY
  • Mendel Max
  • Prusa i3
  • Prusa i3 quad
  • Rostock Max v2
  • Thing
  • Thing Delta
  • Ultimaker Original

To select the printer configuration, go to the Configuration section of Octoprint and click on the Reedem section.

Of the printers listed, clicking the star activates it as the printer configuration. Upon first install, the local.cfg file is blank but from this same screen you can upload you’re own file.

For more information on various settings, check out the full Configuration Settings guide.

Note

If you have a printer not listed, you can create your own printer.cfg and contribute it to the project.
