By request: a beginner’s guide on editing Marlin 3D printer firmware. This video explains what firmware is, the differences between firmware source and compiled firmware, where to get the firmware and editing software, basic concepts, specific scenarios, uploading and troubleshooting. Once you overcome the initial barrier, things will become much clearer and you’ll lean quickly.
Thanks to the Marlin developers for providing free, capable firmware, with a large range of premade configurations to help us out!
If you have any great tips for beginners, please add them in the comments.

Only one recomendation is to add a unique label comment to any line that you have modified so that you can easily search for any modified lines in your copy, for commented lines add this label to the end of the existing comment rether than deleting existing comments. Thanks for all your work!

Your videos have saved me several times over now on getting my Creality gear up and running the way I wanted. Even just trying to get a BLTouch working on an Ender 5 almost left me wanting to throw the machine out the window, but your walkthroughs got me through it. Thank you so much!

@Barklen226 8 месяцев назад

Did you have an issue with your nozzle being way too high off the board? I am having that issue with an ender 5 with BL touch and nothing I do is getting the nozzle close enough to the plate during a print. I've set my Z axis and my Z probe offset as far negative as it'll let me and it's still probably an 1/8 inch too high.

@SamDrane Год назад

dude you need to know this video is still helping people, I was massively stuck I went looking for answers, watched 2 of your videos on compiling marlin and it was like being struck my lightening. I've been 3d printing 3/4 years and if I'm ever stuck its always your videos that rescue me Thank you So much.

I really appreciate your easily understood, no frills, clear instruction. Congratulations on being a consummate educator.

Am in the process of upgrading to a 32 bit board and lots of new features. So have gone through yours and other videos and developed a "checklist" to follow to make sure each one is done. Saved me a bunch of time and helped keep the first list of errors short. Thanks for the excellent presentation.

I have been searching everywhere on the internet for months and asking for help, but finally found this video, very helpful and has given me the courage to go again. I have an ender6 with BL touch and want to use the Sonic Pad, but it doesn't work properly because BL touch no longer responds, probably have to adjust the printer.cfg, your video has given me a direction to continue my search, thanks!! Wr,Henk

@dtovee 4 года назад

Thanks Michael, good video. My tip would be to download the source get it to compile, then add your printer default files and then check it compiles. Make changes in increments and check it complies. Don't make all the changes and then see if it complies or you won't know which change has broken the code. You'll find it's a love/hate thing - it's great when you get it going on the latest code with the options you want but hate when you try and do it and you can't get it to work!

@spacemanspiff559 2 года назад

Hey dude, unrelated to this video, but I wanted to let you know that I am working my way through your website right now and it is amazing. Thank you so much for creating such a valuable asset for the community. I just happened to click on one of your videos when searching google for instructions on compiling my own firmware and boom, there's your face. Anyways, I'm up to the acceleration/tuning tab of your site and my print quality is already worlds better than when I started. You wouldn't even believe the prints are coming out of the same printer. I finally decided to tune everything after spending a bunch of money on a Micro-Swiss direct drive and a BLtouch and still not seeing improvements. Turns out I only had to spend time learning how different settings affect my print quality and tweaking them. I could not have done it without your site. Thank you so much! One small suggestion I might add if you don't mind is that it would be nice if there were a section to enter a z-offset into the code. My printer really needs a negative z-offset for the first layer, and I haven't been able to figure out how to do that through start code alone. But that's just one small thing. The service overall is amazing! Thanks again!

@Demonfox-Lux Год назад

This is a great tutorial. For those who experience the same torture as I did: Sometimes after flashing a bootloader vscode won't recognize that the printer is connected. Thus, avrdude gives an error message saying he can't find the chip. Looks something like this: avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 10 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x18 Well. If you compile Marlin it saves the actual .hex file. Go on and install AVRDUDESS. Set it up for your printer (there are tutorials on youtube) and voilà. AVRDUDESS kinda forces the write, even if it can't detect the printer. However, when reading for check it finds the printer. Worked for me, took one and a half days to figure out

Again Michael, your video with this subject was right on time! I’ve done some major mods to my Ender 3 and now it’s time to add the Marlin 2.0.x software! Keep up the great work and thank you for your awesome videos!

@bigfilsing 4 года назад

Great video. Couple of things ive found add confidence to new users. 1/ Explaining the VS code is just a glorified text editor . 2/ VS code takes away a lot of the pain that was Arduino IDE ( i'm thinking mainly the IDE version issues and loading libraries etc. 3/ when you've downloaded the latest "bugfix" version of Marlin try compiling it before any edits are made...that way you know your VS code setup is working correctly. 4 / For added confidence test compile while editing .For example adjust temp sensors / endstops config then test compile If that works add esteps and bed size then test compile again. It would be good for Mac users if you explained how to make ( for example) the PIO folder visible :-) Cheers

@zsolty87dk 4 года назад

The trickier part comes when you don't have a preconfigured code for your printer and you have to go through all the scripts and pray when you turn on your printer after uploading it. In my case I have tried compiling many many times with no success for my cr10s pro v2 as there's no preconfigured source code for it, or at least I can't find one. But keep up the good work, it helps a lot 👌

This and the other guide where you go through the Atom setup was so key. I now got the latest SKR Mini fw for my Ender 3. I didn't even bother tweaking any settings yet. It's got (semi) auto bed leveling enabled by default! Thanks for your help! Oh, and you talked me into that direct drive, too. It's on the way. I'm gonna need to watch that video again so I know what settings to tweak.

The Marlin Github Configuration example files have Configuration.h and Configuration_adv.h and possibly other .h files already configured for many different printers. Those files should be used instead of the default Configuration.h and Configuration_adv.h that are in the Marlin Github files. I might have missed it, but I didn't see a good explanation of how to find and use the proper configuration files. Really helpful video, thanks.

@Rfster900 4 года назад

Hello Michael. First Thank you so much again for your videos which are so helpful since documentation for Marlin is so sketchy. Quick question: once you've adjusted the extruder steps/unit value (by extruding and then measuring a set length), do other values (such as feedrates, accelerations, etc) automatically take this into account? For instance, if I go from a direct extruder to a geared one (3:1), does the only value I have to change is the steps/units (and then everything else will be adjusted accordingly)? Thanks in advance. Great work! :-))

@snarkfinder2621 4 года назад

I have an 8 bit board and a Reprap Discount Full Graphic Smart Controller. This display requires the U8glib library to compile. The Arduino IDE cannot compile the firmware when the Reprap Discount Full Graphic Smart Controller is used. The command linking of all of the files is too long for MS Windows to interpret, so produces an error. If you use VSCode and the Auto Build Marlin extension installed, everything will compile as it should. I would suggest that people use VSCode with the Auto Build Marlin extension instead of the Arduino IDE as it compiles a lot faster and is more helpful with its error messages. Whenever you get a list of error messages, it is frequently the first error that is causing all of the following errors. Always look to fix the first error.

I really appreciate your videos. I have a question for you and I would like to know your opinion, so I am trying to upgrade my Geeetech A20T to add a 4th extruder. Do you think is possible to use a PWM pin on the GT2560 Board and configure the pins using the marlin firmware? So when update the printer using CURA to configure the 4th extruder and create the design with 4 extruders and the GCODE will then activate each extruder? Hope this question makes sense and hope you could give me your opinion. Thank you

@Sabotage_Labs 2 года назад

You do good work man. I really like that your videos are spot on and without the fluff and stuff, or just rambling, too may youtubers do. Concise and to the point. Well done! I've been wanting to modify the Marlin 1.5.2(alex) for my Voxelab Aquila (great first printer) to crank it up to 300c on the hotend. I've already upgraded to all metal hot end and Boden tube. I'd like to start working with materials that need over 260 default. Per the Voxelab site, it's the same main board and thermistor for the Aquila and the S2 which is sold as a 300c machine. So, this should make the modding firmware task relatively easy. I just started messing with coding and Python at that. So... never messed with compiling. Should be a fun first task....lol Thanks man..,cheers!

@christopherwhitcomb6233 2 года назад

Great video. Was curious if you have an opinion on jyers which is what I’m using now? I installed a Biqu h2, dual z, adjustable y axis on my ender 3v2. Gonna be upgrading my main board and considering the skr pro v1.2 mostly cause the amount of ports and the price along with wanting dual extruders, ender extender, independent z control, big tree touch screen and a few other upgrades. Does marlin 2.0 have advantages? I got used to not needing to link to a pc as I have no internet access at printer location and a desktop that’s not so movable in a different building. I noticed the skr mini e3 there’s a few people running jyers in marlin configuration. Wondering if that’s possible with the skr pro v1.2 or if marlin 2.0 is fully usable without ever linking to a pc. Eventually I’ll have internet at printer but I need to boost my signal as it falls short by about 30 feet on WiFi signal. Sorry for the complex question. Only been printing for 8 weeks. Installed the biqu and dual z on my own but I mod a lot of items so that was easy. Marlin just looks scary but I guess everything does at the beginning. Thanks many of your videos helped me do these mods and get me printing decent after. I know the boards extravagant for an ender 3 but I researched printing for a few years and know where I’m headed and I’ll be using 5 of the thermistors for sure.

I want to hear thoughts on the ender 5 plus and you’re the only reliable source I enjoy

@boggisthecat 4 года назад

Mattchu Moore I have built up and upgraded multiple Ender 3s (mostly the Pro), so have a bit of experience. I decided to buy an Ender 5 Plus to get the bigger build and faster print speeds. It has been a real bear to sort out. Not as refined as the later Ender 3 production, and lots of little mechanical problems. Has a bizarre menu system with the touchscreen that is difficult to follow, and includes a really weird ‘eco’ mode that turns off the heated bed, ensuring that your print detaches while in progress. Why? Who knows? (So set this OFF.) Came with a junk no-name PSU despite claims otherwise on the listing, too. I got a partial refund due to that. I also bought the ‘silent’ upgrade board for it at the same time - probably a waste of money as the Bigtreetech boards are cheaper and better. While attempting to install different firmware to address some of the performance problems the display got bricked. Apparently it is not terribly robust when it comes to firmware updates. That meant no display, so I had to set up Octopi to drive the printer. (I have replaced the display now, but extra cost and delay.) It is also very sensitive to SD Card speed - it took me ages to figure out that the cards that worked fine on my Ender 3 Pros just didn’t work on the 5 Pro. Print quality is far worse than either of my Ender 3 Pros. They both have completely different boards and firmware (one with 8-bit board and Marlin 1.1.6, one with 32-bit and Marlin 2.0.something) so it isn’t (just) that. As I said - it’s been a bear to try to get working optimally. I am now waiting on a couple of BTT boards to arrive (an SKR 1.4 Turbo and SKR Mini E3 V2.0 - I have an SKR Mini E3 V1.2 in one of my Ender 3 Pros) along with a TFT35-E3 V3.0 display to swap the board and display out. I got two boards as I plan on swapping around the V1.2 at some point, and have not decided whether to put the SKR 1.4 in the Ender 5 or one of my Ender 3 Pros. The Creality boards are just underpowered and problematic, IMO. Unless you really want the capability now, it may be better to wait a while and see if Creality fix some of the issues. You could save a lot of money and time. (And filament.)

@rickb1444 4 года назад

@@boggisthecat Thank you for your detailed feedback. I was considering the Ender 5 Plus for the larger size. I think that I will wait and see if Creality makes an Ender 6 Plus (corexy) or I may just wait for the Prusa XL that is coming out in November or so.

@boggisthecat 4 года назад

Rick B Hi. It’s probably best to wait and see if Creality update the Ender 5 Plus. If you have to pay for a new power supply,then upgrade the mainboard, display, and spend many hours on it - well, the Prusa may not be unreasonably expensive given that it will almost certainly work well from the start. I’m about US$250 in on ‘fixes’ to the Ender 5 Plus now. Lost track of the hours spent - probably closing in on fifty to sixty.

Hi, I have a question about the building from scratch 3D printer. for my idea, I would like to have 4 PMW output to simulate the extruders as I am using actuators that need this type of signal. So my question is, Can I use 4 pins on the RAMPS board and assigned as extruder on the Marlin firmware and when I slice the design using Slic3r with the 4 different colors I would be able to activate this 4 pins with PMW signals when the Pronterface perform each extruder? Hope this question makes sense and I could hear soon from you. Really appreciate your content. Thank you.

Michael, just an FYI: Atom crashes almost immediately in windows 10 for myself and apparently many others. Trying to work through it with vsc now.

It figures that my new SKR mini 1.3 came in today so I installed it. The BLTouch Z-home firmware is bugged so there is no BLTouch in the menu, so I thought I better try compiling my own firmware. Well now I can't get Atom to install PlatformIO-IDE so I'm trying Visual Code.

Hey Michael in the creality examples for ender e. It gives all the btt boards for the minis and 1.3 versions and option for e3 turbo...is that the skr 1.4 turbo or something completely different. If so what would the 1.4 turbo be considered since its n5o actually mention in the list anywhere?

A nit - but you don't need the "._XXXXXXXX" files. Those are AppleDouble files that handle any Apple macOS Finder and extended attributes that don't apply on Windows/Linux.

Hey Teaching tech great video, could you please shine a light on why my VCS keeps showing me the error ''please update your includepath. squiggles are disabled for this translation unit'' It's driving me crazy now I'm trying to fix my SKR Mini E3 boards because they've randomly gone loud again after being quiet for some time. :( TIA

I’d like to see if and how you can save the existing firmware file as a backup before flashing a new firmware to a machine. Also how one would restore the backup in the event something did not work as expected or even if the board failed to boot as a result of a new firmware.

Hi thanks for the video! I have an ender3 neo max and wanted to be able to print at 280. I upgraded the hardware. I follow you tutorial at best I could lol and it works I'm able to reach now 280 but the screen looks different . Kind of when windows os will boot in safemode (in the old os versions). To everyonePlease let me know if I'm missing something.

@scooteristic-urbanecomobil9522 3 года назад

Hey, first time trying to compile my firmware, stuck on the same issue. Did you solve it by any chance?

I was trying to follow your instructions, but there doesn't seem to be a config file for an Ender Max Neo. Any ideas on where I can find/make one?

Wow, this really convinxed me of just how much better the duet setup is than this (not saying marlin is bad but reprap does have a leg up on them)

@SimiTravels 4 года назад

thank you for your precious video !i've one issue ! I bought Skr mini e3 v2 , and i compiled the correct firmware, it works perfectly BUT if i change some values (like i did with : #define SDCARD_RATHERRECENTFIRST or #define POWER_LOSS_RECOVERY or //#define SCROLL_LONG_FILENAMES ) than changes are NOT seen on the ender 3 ... why?

@SimiTravels 4 года назад

i saw " one like " now .. i reply to myself , after using a newer marlin firmware 2.06 that fixed this problem! so #define SDCARD_RATHERRECENTFIRST but UNDEFINE //#define SDCARD_SORT_ALPHA

@damianwoody9653 4 года назад

awesome. i have a 3 day print running right now but as soon as its done im going to install my bltouch on my mini e3 v2.0 board and flash the firmware. im lame and have been looking at the bltouch not doing anything but looking nice on my hot end because i was worried about the firmware. still need to figure out what wire goes to what pin though
