InkyPi-KlipperProgress

An InkyPi plugin that displays live 3D print progress from a Klipper printer running Moonraker on your e-ink display.

What it shows

Field	Source
Print state (Printing / Paused / Complete / Standby / Error)	print_stats.state
Current filename	print_stats.filename
Progress bar + percentage	virtual_sdcard.progress
Nozzle temperature (actual / target)	extruder.temperature / extruder.target
Bed temperature (actual / target)	heater_bed.temperature / heater_bed.target
Elapsed time	print_stats.print_duration
Estimated remaining time	Derived from progress + elapsed
Layer / message info	display_status.message (e.g. from SET_DISPLAY_TEXT)

Prerequisites

• InkyPi installed and running
• A Klipper printer with Moonraker accessible on your local network
• InkyPi must be able to reach the Moonraker HTTP API (default port 7125)

Installation

Option A — Manual install

# SSH into your InkyPi Raspberry Pi
cd ~/InkyPi/src/plugins
git clone https://github.com/SunkCircle88900/klipper_progress klipper_progress
sudo systemctl restart inkypi.service

Option B — Copy files

Copy the klipper_progress/ directory into src/plugins/ on your InkyPi device:

src/plugins/
└── klipper_progress/
    ├── klipper_progress.py
    ├── klipper_progress.html
    ├── settings.html
    └── plugin.json

Then restart the InkyPi service:

sudo systemctl restart inkypi.service

Configuration

1. Open the InkyPi web UI in your browser.
2. Select Klipper Print Progress from the plugin list.
3. Enter your Moonraker URL (e.g. http://192.168.1.100:7125).
4. Save — the display will update on the next refresh cycle.

Tip: Set the InkyPi refresh interval to something short (e.g. 1–5 minutes) while a print is in progress so the display stays current.

Klipper SET_DISPLAY_TEXT support

If you add SET_DISPLAY_TEXT MSG="Layer {layer_num}/{total_layer_count}" to your slicer's layer-change G-code, that message will appear in the footer of the display via display_status.message.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Fix
"Cannot reach Moonraker"	Check the IP/port. Try curl http://<ip>:7125/printer/info from the Pi.
Temperatures show 0	The printer may be in standby with heaters off — this is normal.
Progress stuck at 0%	Ensure a print is actually running and virtual_sdcard is active.
