Basic Information:

Printer Model: Ender 3
MCU / Printerboard: SKR Mini E3 V1.2
Host / SBC Dell/LAPtop Debian 12
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:

…very new to klipper. trying to make Ender 3 with Skr mini E3 V1.2 bl-touch to work on old laptop running debian12.
have installed with KIAUH
klipper
Monraker
Mainsail
Fluidd
Octoprint

Problem:

  1. Can connect to printer with Mainsail and Fluidd
    Not with Octoprint.
  2. When connect get error: Option ‘mesh_min’ in section ‘bed_mesh’ must be specified

As you can see in printer.cfg I have put:
[bed_mesh]
speed: 80
horizontal_move_z: 5
min_point: 90, 20
max_point: 235, 235
probe_count: 3,3
fade_start: 1.0
mesh_pps: 2,2

tryed to comment out min/man with# but receive the same

Octoprint have klipper plugin and I have done ‘ls ./dev/serial/by-id/*’
and put that in octoprint but no connection.

sorry for bad english (not my navtive langue) and hope maybee you can point me in the right direction to solve these issues.

What virtual port do you use?

I follow instruction for knowing ‘printer port’:
ls ./dev/serial/by-id/*
got
/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Klipper_stm32f103xe_31FFD8054242363126552457-if00
and it works for Fluidd and Mainsail but not Octoprint.
Have not ‘seen’ any instruction for a ‘virtual port’, where can I find info for this ?

That is for connecting Klipper to the printer.

You need to connect OctoPrint to Klipper now.
Either with

/tmp/printer

When you install the OctoKlipper image

When you use KIAUH, then you have to use:

/home/pi/printer_data/comms/klippy.serial

But you first have to set it up in OctoPrint:
