Solved [REPRAPGURU] 2004 LCD Smart Display Controller - With RoBo R1

Hi friends, just buy this LCD, I would arrive next week, watching videos, can print directly from the SD, and adjust some things like speed, which I do not know if the speed would affect the finish of the printing. I have several questions and I thank the teachers if they can help me. You are really geniuses.
1- What quality is printed directly from the SD? (On pc robor1 software, i can choose low, medium or high. That varies a lot the speed and quality.
2- In the G code, can you save the preference of printing?
3- For this model of LCD ([REPRAPGURU] 2004 LCD Smart Display Controller), what is the best case for my roboR1 plus? My favorite page is thingiverse.com

I really want to print without relying on a laptop but I am worried about those questions, the installation of the hardware is very easy I hope.

 

Mark , if i make on the software the g code with low quality on the SD file , the printer take that info and do it ? or print on standard quality ?

 

Both are equally good.
The Smart Controller (guru) shouldn't need any modifications.
The XXL needs some minor edits.

I've been using my LCD Controller for a couple of months now and am very happy with it.
The quality of the print is dependant on what settings you use to slice it to gcode.

Steps involved:
1. Download a model
2. Load it (stl file) into your software (slicer) Matter Control, Cura, Simplify3D, etc.
3. Save it to SD card (gcode not stl)
4. Eject card from PC then insert card into Controller.
5. Print from SD - Controller will use whatever setting you had in your software.

You can speed up the Feed Rate (speed it prints) and slow it down. Depending on the model you are printing you can go from very successful to total fail. I can print a simple model at 250% normal with no loss of detail if there is very little detail to begin with. I can bring out some great delicate details by slowing it down to 25%-50%.

The 3 quality setting in you software are sort of "beginners" settings. You can turn on Expert settings and see a world of settings that can be changed when you get comfortable with it. (KEEP GOOD NOTES on all changes)

When looking for cases on Thingiverse just enter your model of controller in the search field and you'll get dozens of choices.

 

tks very much you are my hero jeje
