How to Add an OctoPrint Touchscreen to Your Ender 3
This guide will teach you how to add a touchscreen to your Creality Ender 3 or Ender 3 Pro for use with OctoPrint. A touchscreen is an inexpensive 3D printer upgrade that will save you time and headaches when using OctoPrint.
I'll be using a 3.5" Adafruit touchscreen for this guide, but you can use a different one. Check out our list of great Raspberry Pi touchscreens for ideas.
