## Connect the VzBoT Vz235 to SimplyPrint

| Way of connecting | Status | What you need | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| SimplyPrint | Compatible |  | Through Klipper (Moonraker) |
| Klipper (Moonraker) | Compatible | Nothing extra: the printer runs Klipper as it ships | Open-source kit whose official firmware is a Klipper config (Mellow Fly Super8 plus a Raspberry Pi), with Mainsail/KlipperScreen themes in the project; the builder installs it. ([Source](https://github.com/VzBoT3D/VzBoT-Vz235/blob/main/Firmware/235AWD-printer.cfg)) |
| OctoPrint (Directly, over USB) | Not compatible |  | Runs Klipper; OctoPrint only on top of it. ([Source](https://github.com/VzBoT3D/VzBoT-Vz235/blob/main/Firmware/235AWD-printer.cfg)); Ships with Klipper: OctoPrint only runs on top of it, through the OctoKlipper plugin |

### What works with SimplyPrint

Connected through Klipper (Moonraker), SimplyPrint supports most of what it offers on the VzBoT Vz235: the camera and AI failure detection, remote printing, skipping objects, temperature and movement control and AutoPrint. Not yet in SimplyPrint through Klipper (Moonraker): download the file before the print starts.

## What slicer to use for the VzBoT Vz235

None of the slicers in SimplyPrint's cloud has a ready-made profile for the VzBoT Vz235, but it takes standard G-code: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.

We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the VzBoT Vz235.

## The app for the VzBoT Vz235

VzBoT doesn't make an app for the VzBoT Vz235. SimplyPrint works as its app: on your phone and in any browser, with a slicer in the cloud.

- 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.
- Hosted in Frankfurt, Germany, under the GDPR.

## Automate the VzBoT Vz235

**Enclosed printers push their prints out.** The VzBoT Vz235's bed only moves up and down inside its enclosure, so instead of swapping plates, a push-off routine lets the toolhead push the cooled print off the plate and out through its front door, which has to be open while it runs. Some printers won't print with the door open (the Prusa CORE One has a door sensor), so check yours first.

### Ways to automate it

- [Push prints off with the toolhead](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/push-off): On a CoreXY printer, a G-code routine can push the cooled print off the front of the plate before the next job starts.
- [Your own ejection G-code](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/custom): Write the routine that clears your plate, and AutoPrint runs it after every print.
- [A robot arm, or anything with an API](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/api): Tell SimplyPrint the plate is clear through the API or a webhook, from a robot arm or your own system.
- [Clear it by hand, keep the queue](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint/manual-mode): AutoPrint waits for you to mark the plate clear, then starts the next job.

[How AutoPrint works](https://simplyprint.io/features/autoprint). AutoPrint comes with the Pro plan and up.

## What filament can the VzBoT Vz235 print?

Filament compatibility for the VzBoT Vz235: the materials it can handle, judged from its hotend, bed, chamber and enclosure.

| Filament | Suitability | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| PLA | Great | The easiest filament to print. Works on almost any printer; a heated bed helps adhesion but is not required. |
| PETG | Great | Comfortably in range (PETG likes a ~230-250C hotend and a ~70-85C bed). |
| TPU & flexibles | Great | The direct-drive extruder feeds flexible filament well. Print slowly for clean results. |
| ABS & ASA | Great | Enclosed, with a hot enough hotend and bed: ABS and ASA print well. |
| Nylon (PA) | Good | Doable with care - dry the filament thoroughly, and an enclosure helps a lot. |
| Polycarbonate (PC) | Good | In range for PC. Dry the filament, print slowly, and use an enclosure for the best results. |
| Carbon-fiber & glass-filled | With care | Possible if you fit a hardened or wear-resistant nozzle - the abrasive fibers quickly wear a stock brass nozzle. |

### Can I use OrcaSlicer with the VzBoT Vz235?

Yes, but OrcaSlicer has no built-in profile for the VzBoT Vz235 that we know of: start from a similar printer's profile and set the bed size, height and nozzle to match.

### What filament can the VzBoT Vz235 print?

Based on its specs (hotend up to 400C, heated bed up to 130C), the VzBoT Vz235 handles PLA, PETG, TPU & flexibles, or ABS & ASA well. See the full filament guide above for ABS, nylon, PC and composites.

### Does the VzBoT Vz235 work with OctoPrint or Klipper?

The VzBoT Vz235 works with Klipper (Mainsail and Fluidd), and SimplyPrint connects to it through them - so you get cloud access, a queue and camera monitoring on top.

### What is the VzBoT Vz235's bed size and build volume?

The VzBoT Vz235 has a 235 x 235 mm print bed and prints up to 200 mm tall, a build volume of about 235 x 235 x 200 mm. See the full specifications table above for bed type, temperatures and more.

### When did the VzBoT Vz235 come out?

VzBoT launched the Vz235 in March 2022.

### Can the VzBoT Vz235 eject prints automatically?

There's no kit for it that we support yet, but SimplyPrint's AutoPrint can push prints off with the toolhead, or run your own ejection G-code, and then start the next job from your queue.
