Firmware for geeetech 3D printers

[William]

Hi, iam very new at 3d printing, do i have to download the Ramps file and the Marlin file? or which one do i need? I have the Prusa I3 pro B, and the board is the GT2560, but iam kind of lost, not sure what to do. thanks for the help!

Hi，you can go through the official website: https://www.geeetech.com/download.html?download_id=34

download the HEX file,

connect to the printer and update the firmware via

Cura settings -printer-mange printer.

I hope this can help you.

Hello William,

Thanks for your helping , it's appreciated.
I have update with new firmware, it s work.... but item was very smaller than real in gcode.
the print area is reduced as well as the object

Hi, Did you set up your printer before updating the firmware?

You can provide more details so that we can solve the problem better.

''A4988 bones are made to climb up to 1/16 step and the 8825 up to 1/32 attention to change the jumpers or the microswitches of your cards so that it corresponds to the step ... to know that you will gain in finesse by putting the X and Y axes in 1/32 but that it does not serve much to do it for the Z and the extruder. If you make these changes in 1/32 you will also have to modify the marlin configuration by doubling the value of X and Y in:

Code: Select all

#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {80, 80, .... make 160,160.....''

I found this on a website, I forgot that I had to change my jumpers with the old firmware, I will test this afternoon.

Hi,

a have downloaded the firmware for A10 (i want to adjust some parameters)

http://www.geeetech.com/forum/download/file.php?id=5403

when i try to compile it with Ardunio-IDE on Linux, i got the Error 'Buzzer.h' not found.
After a little search i found 'buzzer.h' , a copy from 'buzzer.h' to 'Buzzer.h' fix the problem.
Then i can compile and upload the firmware without problems.A testprint with the firmware looks fine.

I think this is only a problem with case-sensitivity and should be fixed in the downloadfile. On Windows Systems this is no problem, on Linux system it is.

greetings
Roman

Hello.


That's a very good point. Thank you.

I just updated my i3 pro x (acrylic with gt2560) and it did not show any errors compiling and after uploading was done, and printer was restarted nothing has changed - I tried to change the "CUSTOM_MEDEL_NAME" to something else to confirm the firmware update but nothing.
