    Not expected to work

    UP printers take Tiertime's own 'UP machine code' over USB from UP Studio, not G-code over serial; a community tool converts G-code to it, not a live serial link. Source

No known way to connect it to SimplyPrint

Unfortunately, the Tiertime UP mini 2 is currently not, to our knowledge, compatible with OctoPrint, Mainsail, Fluidd, or SimplyPrint. For the best 3D printing experience, consider other 3D printers that are compatible with these softwares.

How we determine compatibility

We consider a printer compatible if it works with one or more of the following:

  • SimplyPrint custom integration for this specific model
  • OctoPrint support (requires the printer to support serial printing)
  • Klipper support (printer can run Klipper, either by flashing compatible firmware or using an external controller/pad)

OctoPrint compatibility is primarily based on whether the printer supports serial communication. If serial printing is not supported, we mark OctoPrint as not compatible.

Note: Some printers have third-party OctoPrint plugins that enable unofficial/custom connections. We don’t maintain a list of these plugins, so they are not reflected in our compatibility data.
