RepRapDiscount Smart LCD Controller Support for Prusa i3

thingiverse

Update: LCD support for original Josef Prusa i3 kits (not MK2) is now available! This involves using a RepRapDiscount Smart LCD Controller, initially designed for a Voxel Factory Prusa i3 printer, an EiNSTeiN variant. Threaded rods measure 10mm; custom brackets are also possible upon request. The printer operates exclusively with plastic components. Share your build and remixes! For a comprehensive visual guide to assembly, refer to the Prusa i3 Plus kit assembly - Step 6: LCD installation. To install the LCD at the front of the printer, you'll first need to extend the ribbon cables (currently 60cm each). The panel will still function properly with these extended cables. To install the printed circuit board (PCB), slide the brackets onto both sides, ensuring open holes face upward. Then, insert the PCB into the cover while aligning the brackets with the slots. Cleanliness is essential for proper fitment of the inside of slots and surfaces of the brackets. Finally, snap the brackets onto the threaded rods at the front of the Y carriage for completion.
