If you’re interested and can get your hands on some kind of SBC (like a raspberry pi) Klipper has been amazing for my printer. You can also use pretty much any computer but it’ll be much less efficient energy wise.
Does the printer need to be runing custom firmware for klipper or is it just on the external device? I have been running octoprint for a while now without much issue.
Klipper requires that the printer is running Klipper firmware.
OctoPrint can work with printers running Klipper or Marlin.
Main advantage of Klipper is that it moves all the gcode and movement processing off of the microcontroller on your printers main board.
Also, Klipper let’s you update firmware settings through a config file without actually having to reflash the printers firmware.
OctoPrint works great as an easy add-on for a printer running the stock Marlin firmware. Main thing people want is wifi print uploads and camera monitoring anyway.

Nah I just want something as simple as a wifi sd card

Yeah I thought. I kinda don’t wanna bother installing kilpper.
