Why is my Duet-powered printer offline?

Why is my Duet-powered printer offline?


Beta: This integration is experimental with limited support.


This guide helps troubleshoot offline issues with the SimplyPrint Duet3D integration.


The integration runs as a service on a separate device (like a Raspberry Pi) that connects to your Duet board over your network.



Quick reference


Symptom

Likely cause

Solution

Offline after reboot

Service not running

Start the service

"Connection refused"

Wrong IP or password

Check configuration

Never connected

Didn't run autodiscover

Run autodiscover



Quick fixes


First: Try restarting the integration service.


sudo systemctl restart simplyprint-duet3d.service



1. Is the integration running?


systemctl status simplyprint-duet3d.service


To start:


sudo systemctl start simplyprint-duet3d.service


View logs:


journalctl -u simplyprint-duet3d.service -f



2. Check configuration


Config file: ~/.config/SimplyPrint/DuetConnector.json


Setting

What to check

duet_uri

Your Duet's IP (e.g., "http://192.168.1.100")

duet_password

Default is "reprap"


Common issues:

  • IP address changed - check Duet's current IP
  • Use http:// not https://
  • Password is reprap even without a login prompt



3. Network check


ping <duet-ip-address>


If ping fails, fix the network issue first.



Run autodiscover


If not set up properly:


simplyprint-duet3d autodiscover



Reinstall


source <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplyprint/integration-duet3d/main/install.sh)



Getting help


Gather this first

  • Output of journalctl -u simplyprint-duet3d.service
  • Duet firmware version
