prusa mk2 lcd panel manufacturer

This 3mm nylon filament is used in the wiring harness of Prusa i3 printers.The length is 50cm which is the proper length for the extruder wiring harness. It can be cut down to 30cm if you need it...

When Prusa released an update for their firmware on GitHub I obviously updated my printer, all went well with the flashing process, so I shut down the printer, but when I went to turn on my printer, the screen presented a bunch of 3s they would occasionally move around and show a 1. After a few minuets of this, my LCD screen went blank, it still turns on and lights up but no menu or any other prusa UI utilities.

I tried re-flashing the firmware, and even went to the prusa website to grab their files to flash, but it still remains blank. I read somewhere that there is a screw on the back that can be turned to adjust the brightness, I messed with that, but that didn"t help either.

This LCD display works and fits like original PRUSA MK3 display. The price point for this unit was below anything I could find elsewhere. It’s a perfect match for the PRUSA MK2 and MK3. No complaints.

USE THESE INFORMATION AT YOUR OWN RISK. I am not responsible for any damage done to your printer or LCD when using these information. I hope you find them useful, I try to make them as accurate as possible but they may contain mistakes.

The LCD Touch Screen is build around an ARM kernel and simplifies the development of user interfaces: the different screens are defined by a set of files (images, fonts, etc) stored in the flash memory of the panel and they can be customized using a graphical editor (part of DGUS SDK).

A set of resources, made by the manufacturer of the 3D printer (Wanhao, Monoprice, Coccon) or yourself. This component is often called "LCD firmware" even if it is wrong.

The last point is very important. The LCD (i.e. DGUS) is not able to handle other formats like top-down bitmaps. To convert images to the right format, you can use ImageMagick convert:

IMPORTANT: You have to use a microSD card with a maximum capacity of 8GiB. If you use a microSD card with a greater capacity, the results are unreliable (sometimes it flashes, sometimes not). This is a limitation of the LCD display itself.

Most of the changes (such as for the second serial line or the Mini LCD) have nothing to do with the Wanhao i3 Plus, but deal with MakerLab Maker printer.

i3extra from Nemcsik Péter: a modified version of the Marlin 1.1.0-RC8 firmware and updated LCD resources. Important: this project is no more maintained.
