Complete Klipper configuration for Elegoo Neptune 4 Plus with Cartographer 3D, optimized for both Original and Bambu Lab hotends.
---
## 🚀 Quick Start
### 1. Clone Repository
```bash
cd ~/printer_data/config
git clone https://git.sky-net.it/nocci/open4neptune-new.git
```
### 2. Install Update Manager (Optional but Recommended!)
Add to your `moonraker.conf`:
```ini
[include open4neptune-new/moonraker/update_manager.cfg]
```
Restart Moonraker, then update directly from Mainsail/Fluidd UI! 🎉
### 3. Install Configs
```bash
# Copy calibration macros
cp -r open4neptune-new/calibration/ ~/printer_data/config/
# Copy user settings (choose one):
cp open4neptune-new/user_settings_clean.cfg ~/printer_data/config/user_settings.cfg
```
### 4. Restart Klipper
**Mainsail/Fluidd:** Machine → Restart Firmware

## 🔧 Installation Options
### Option A: Moonraker Update Manager (Recommended!)
**One-time setup:**
```bash
# 1. Clone repo
cd ~/printer_data/config
git clone https://git.sky-net.it/nocci/open4neptune-new.git
# 2. Add to moonraker.conf
echo "[include open4neptune-new/moonraker/update_manager.cfg]" >> ~/printer_data/config/moonraker.conf
# 3. Make install script executable
chmod +x ~/printer_data/config/open4neptune-new/install.sh
# 4. Restart Moonraker
sudo systemctl restart moonraker
```
**Then:** Machine → Update Manager → "open4neptune-configs" → Update
### Option B: Manual Installation
```bash
cd ~/printer_data/config
git clone https://git.sky-net.it/nocci/open4neptune-new.git
cp -r open4neptune-new/calibration/ ~/printer_data/config/
cp open4neptune-new/user_settings_clean.cfg ~/printer_data/config/user_settings.cfg
# Restart Klipper
```
---
## 🎯 Usage
### In Slicer (Orca/PrusaSlicer/Cura):
**Start Gcode:**
```gcode
PRINT_START EXTRUDER_TEMP=[nozzle_temperature] BED_TEMP=[bed_temperature] FILAMENT_TYPE=PLA
```
**End Gcode:**
```gcode
PRINT_END
```
### In Mainsail/Fluidd Console:
```gcode
; Show calibration menu
CALIBRATION_MENU
; Quick Z measurement
QUICK_TOUCH
; Babysteps during print
BABYZ_PLUS ; Z +0.005mm
BABYZ_MINUS ; Z -0.005mm
```
---
## 📊 Orca Profile Installation
1. Open Orca Slicer
2. File → Import → Import Config(s)...
3. Select profiles from `orca-profiles/` folder
4. Choose profile based on your hotend:
- **Original:** `Neptune4Plus-Original/*`
- **Bambu:** `Neptune4Plus-Bambu/*`
---
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### Calibration Macros Not Found
```bash
# Check if calibration folder exists
ls ~/printer_data/config/calibration/
# Check if included in printer.cfg
grep "calibration" ~/printer_data/config/printer.cfg
```
### Update Manager Not Showing
```bash
# Check moonraker.conf
grep "open4neptune" ~/printer_data/config/moonraker.conf
# Restart Moonraker
sudo systemctl restart moonraker
# Check logs
journalctl -u moonraker -f
```
### PRINT_START Not Working
```gcode
; Test in console
PRINT_START EXTRUDER_TEMP=200 BED_TEMP=60
; Check for errors in Klipper console
```

## 🚨 Important Notes
⚠️ **Always backup before updates:**
```bash
cp ~/printer_data/config/user_settings.cfg ~/printer_data/config/user_settings.cfg.backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)
```
⚠️ **After installing:**
1. Run `CALIBRATION_QUICK` for essential calibrations
2. Test with a simple print
3. Fine-tune Pressure Advance for your filament
⚠️ **Carbon Fiber Filament:**
- Use **ONLY** with Bambu Lab hotend (steel nozzle)
- Will destroy brass nozzle!
