No Issue, just praise
I just wanted to say that this firmware and the community behind it is awesome. Just having this available has prevented me from throwing my FFCP printer in the trash and I am now printing high quality parts like when the printer was new. I was getting so frustrated with the old sailfish firmware, RepG, old versions of Flashprint or xg3 interpreters. My prints were not coming out right, and support after so many years is nearly gone. After flashing Klipper, and using Mainsail and Orcaslicer, I have full control of every aspect of the printer and the documentation is excellent, plus I can finally print with gcode files! Great community and a great product.
If anyone needs any FFCP support for setup, I can help. I am running only the left extruder with a cooling fan and a microswiss all-metal hotend.
Same sentiment here! I updated an old Leapfrog XeeD I got for free (!) to use Klipper (it already came with a small PC running a lightly modified Octoprint, so the architecture was already worked out). I am amazed at how quiet the steppers are with Klipper compared to the original Marlin fork they used (and even compared to the most recent Marlin version I was running last year when I switched to Klipper). Not to mention it’s capable of much higher speed of motion (the 8-bit board was at its limits with Marlin, even using MeatPack algorithm and G2/G3 arcs, which made great circles but still held back the speed). Luckily this printer had a pretty open system and no DRM or anything like that so the process of flashing/installing Klipper was pretty smooth even before I learned of KIAUH.
I even recently got both extruders working with it! Now I have a lightly used Voron so I’ve been playing with that instead, but I’ll offer the same configuration help for someone with a Xeed or possibly even a Creatr.
