Setting Up Octoprint on the Raspberry Pi Zero As it turns out though, running Octoprint on the Zero is trivially easy, provided you have the right hardware.

However, when I started researching how to run Octoprint on the Raspberry Pi Zero, I found that the Internet had little to say on the subject. Just follow the directions provided on the Octoprint website and you will have your printer running off Octoprint in minutes. Setting up Octoprint on a Raspberry Pi 2 is simple. I have been running Octoprint on a Raspberry Pi 2 for quite a while because I like to put my printers in a separate room so the noise (and sometimes smell) they produce does not annoy me while I am working in my office. Using Octoprint running on a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 is a setup many Makers have to enable remote use and monitoring of their 3D printer.
