Key Interface Sections

  • Dashboard: This is your main overview screen. You can monitor temperatures, see the webcam feed, check print job progress, and access emergency stop functions.
  • Console: This is a direct command line to your printer. You can send G-code commands manually (e.g., G28 to home) and see real-time responses and logs from Klipper.
  • Temperature Control: This area displays live temperature graphs and allows you to manually set target temperatures for your hotend and heated bed.
  • Movement Controls: Here you can find buttons to home the X, Y, and Z axes, disable motors, and manually move (jog) the toolhead along each axis.
  • File Management: This section lists all your uploaded G-code files. You can upload new files, delete old ones, and start prints from here.
  • Configuration: This powerful feature gives you a built-in text editor to view and modify your printer.cfg and any other Klipper configuration files directly from your browser.
