Connect the Vision Miner 22 IDEX to SimplyPrint

Does the Vision Miner 22 IDEX 3D printer work with SimplyPrint, OctoPrint, Mainsail and Fluidd? Each way of connecting it, what it needs, and how to set it up.

  • Duet (RepRapFirmware)

    Compatible

    Runs RepRapFirmware on a Duet board as shipped (Duet 3 6HC on current units, Duet 2 on V1/V2), which the SimplyPrint Client's Duet integration connects to. Source

    What you need: A computer or Raspberry Pi on the same network that stays on, running the SimplyPrint Client

  • OctoPrint

    OctoPrint

    Directly, over USB

    Not confirmed yet - help us find out

    Duet boards do accept G-code over USB, but Vision Miner documents only the Duet web interface (Ethernet/Wi-Fi); OctoPrint use not confirmed. Source

  • Mainsail Fluidd

    Klipper (Moonraker)

    Not compatible

    Ships RepRapFirmware on Duet boards, not Klipper. Source

    • Doesn't ship with Klipper: it runs Klipper after you install it in place of its own firmware, a modification

Profiles and other slicers

Automatic Profile Updates: Profiles are automatically checked and fetched from the slicer GitHub repositories every day, as well as from our own open-source community-driven slicer profile database. This ensures you always have access to the latest profiles.

Note: Other slicers, such as Simplify3D, ideaMaker, SuperSlicer and KISSlicer, aren't in our cloud, so we don't track their profiles. They may still work well with your Vision Miner 22 IDEX: check the slicer's own documentation or forums for a profile. You can also contribute profiles to our open-source slicer profile database on GitHub.

What you get with SimplyPrint

  • An app for iPhone and Android, the same in any browser, and a slicer in the cloud.
  • More than monitoring: a print queue, AI failure detection, AutoPrint and accounts for a team.
  • Printers from many brands in one place, side by side.
  • A European cloud: hosted in Frankfurt, Germany, under the GDPR.
