How to Uninstall SimplyPrint from the Creality Hi

Only for the older / alternative setup. If you connected your printer using the SimplyPrint Client, there is nothing to uninstall - the SimplyPrint Client connects to your printer wirelessly and never installs anything on the printer itself. To return the printer to normal, just quit or power off the device running the SimplyPrint Client; the printer is completely unchanged. The steps below apply only if you previously installed SimplyPrint directly on the printer.

1. Find your Creality Hi's IP address

On the touchscreen navigate to "Settings" → "Network".

Note down the Creality Hi's IP address shown under your network name/SSID.

2. Find the root password

On the touchscreen navigate to "Settings" and scroll down to select "Root account information".

Read the disclaimer and wait 30 seconds before checking "I have read and understood the risks of root login" and then pressing "Ok".

Note down the root password.

3. Connect to your K2 via SSH

Open a terminal or SSH client on your computer.
Connect to your K2 using the IP address and root password you noted:

ssh root@[IP_ADDRESS]

For example; ssh root@192.168.0.42

When prompted for a password, enter the password you noted.

The password won't show up while typing - don't worry; that's normal.

4. Run the Uninstall Script

Once connected, run the command below to launch the script menu:

python3 -c "import urllib.request;print(urllib.request.urlopen('https://download.simplyprint.io/creality/hi/hi-setup.sh').read().decode())" | sh

Choose your desired uninstall option, and follow the on-screen instructions:

Choose option 7: 7) Uninstall all to completely remove SimplyPrint from the printer.

Once the script is finished it should display Restart your printer to finalize the uninstallation., if the uninstall was successful.

That's it! SimplyPrint has now been removed from your Creality Hi.
