Description
I wanted to add a display to my Voron v0.2 to make the front panel look less empty while allowing me to easily monitor the printing process. After some consideration, I decided that a 0.96-inch display SSD1306 with I2C bus operation would be the perfect fit. To integrate it seamlessly, I modified the original headless skirt insert provided by @VoronDesign.
The display is connected via a secondary MCU (Waveshare RP2040-Zero). A quick tip: make sure to keep the data line of the I2C bus as short as possible to avoid any communication issues.
This project was inspired by @StoneTime_944307, who has an excellent collection of Klipper tutorials, including one specifically for this display.
Here’s the tutorial to help you configure the display:
