It's not recommended to use a single-core Raspberry Pi with OctoPrint and a touchscreen. The single-core processor is only recommended for running OctoPrint. Attaching third-party equipment (e.g. camera or touchscreen) can result in failing prints or slow performance.


  1. Make sure you've installed OctoPrint and installed TouchUI from the 'Plugins Manager'.

  2. Make sure you've your touchscreen working by installing the required drivers.

  3. Get the TouchUI boot files + install scripts:

    git clone https://github.com/BillyBlaze/OctoPrint-TouchUI-autostart.git ~/TouchUI-autostart/
    
  4. Run the install helper

    sudo ~/TouchUI-autostart/helpers/install
    
  5. Done!
