Ender 6 5" DSI Touch Screen IPS LCD - Klipper Screen for Ender6

thingiverse

Having tried about every display available, I have finally settled on a mid sized touch screen connected to Klipper Screen to be the best option out there for me. Most of the solutions require multiple cables (HDMI, USB, power), not this one. If you use a DSI LCD as pictured, you have just one thin ribbon cable and no drivers to install on the Raspberry Pi. Who doesn't want an easy to read, capacitive touch interface for their Ender 6? Parts required: 5" DSI LCD as pictured (Amazon has them for less than $45.00) 4X M3 x 12mm fasteners (For the two retaining brackets) Printing: This is a fairly easy print, run at a speed your printer can faithfully produce accurate dimensions. Remember to print two retaining brackets. Print with tree supports in the orientation it will be in when installed on the Ender 6 with 25% infill. Post Processing: Remove supports and move on to assembly. Assembly: Flip your printer over and remove the bottom access cover. Then remove your old lcd housing (4 fasteners), and the ribbon cable that goes back under the printer to the controller board. Install the DSI cable into the socket on the LCD. Next, carefully insert your DSI LCD into the newly printed housing, and secure using the two retaining brackets and related fasteners. Be sure it is facing right side up (the text on the back serves as orientation for which way is up). Reinstall the housing onto the printer, while carefully guiding the DSI cable to where the Raspberry Pi is located (mine is mounted next to the printer controller board underneath). Boot your printer up, and install Klipper Screen via SSH: https://klipperscreen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Installation/ Enjoy!
