### Basic Information:

Printer Model: Ender 3  
 MCU / Printerboard: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-1a86\_USB\_Serial-if00-port0/ V4.2.2  
 Host / SBC Raspberry Pi Zero 2W  
 klippy.log

_Fill out above information and_ **_in all cases attach your_ `klippy.log` _file_** (use zip to compress it, if too big). _Pasting your_ `printer.cfg` _is **not** needed_  
_ **Be sure to check our “Knowledge Base” Category first. Most relevant items, e.g. error messages, are covered there** _

### Describe your issue:

I had Klipper/ Mainsail/ Moonraker installed, then i bought another Ender 3. I tried to hook them up together, and everything crashed so I had to restart. After a few headaches and annoyances later, I decided to make each printer have an individual Pi for each.

Reconnected everything for Printer A, got Mainsail with Klipper up and running, went to do a test print and received “Unable to open file”. Changed Virtual sd card paths on both Mainsail cfg and Printer cfg to match, no luck.  
I dont know what to do from here. If im missing information, let me know and ill get it as soon as i can find it.

Klippy Log:  
[klippy (1).log](https://klipper.discourse.group/uploads/short-url/qSxwcrFHfPiw4JWDp5QDsfB06hd.log) (213.8 KB)

Let me know if the link doesnt work, ill paste the entire log if necessary.

Welcome Stego\_saurus,

use the search function here. I’m quite sure your problem was discussed before. E.g. [Unable to open file with new printer setup](https://klipper.discourse.group/t/unable-to-open-file-with-new-printer-setup/14238)

Good luck, hcet14
