READING TIME: 6 MINUTES
A few months ago I posted my compact 3D printer card. You guys seemed to really like it so I decided to post my updated version now that I’ve since switched to Mushroom.
Changes
I’m now using the Octoprint MQTT integration to expose even more entities. (Still using the default Octoprint integration – but only to Resume print, couldn’t figure out a way to do that over MQTT). Primary advantages for me was showing an .STL preview of what I’m printing & controlling the nozzle and bed axis. Also, the ETA, elapsed, and printing time sensors report much more accurately with MQTT.
I’m using multiple conditional cards with toggle helpers – if Octo Controls is toggled, show the controls, if webcam is toggled, show the webcam, etc.
Integrations
- MQTT Octoprint
- Threedy
- Mushroom
- layout card
- stack-in-card
- Default HA integration for Octoprint (only used for the Resume after being paused button, so this is optional if you don’t care about that).
Note: If you decide to start using Octoprint-MQTT and the Threedy card, make sure to include use_mqtt: true like this:
Note: This guide assumes you’ve already configured MQTT with Octoprint. Lots of good guides out there if you haven’t yet.
G-Code Viewer
If you want to view .STL previews like I’ve done, you’ll need to install PrettyGCode and PruserSlicerThumbnails in the Octoprint plugin store.
Also install Cura Thumbnails plugin in Octoprint: https://github.com/jneilliii/OctoPrint-UltimakerFormatPackage
PrusaSlicerThumbnails enables the STL preview in Octoprint, and PrettyGCode gives you a URL, which we pass into Home Assistant.
Full “Card” YAML
Once you have the above integrations configured, copy and paste the YAML below into a Manual card and change out the entities with your own.
You’ll need to create x3 Toggle helpers (Settings > Devices & Services > Helpers > Create Helper > Toggle)

How do we tell what out base sensor is? i have 3 octoprint integrations on my home assistant
Man that was a lot of work to set up from scratch, mqtt gave me some grief. The end result is awesome though! I had to take some additional steps that weren’t mentioned here, such as enabling the thumbnails plugin in Cura. I also had to modify the code you posted on reddit to add a generic camera for the stl thumbnails. I used:
{{ “http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/plugin/prusaslicerthumbnails/thumbnail/” + states(“sensor.octoprint_print_file”).split(“.”)[0] + “.png” }}
Thanks a ton for all your work!
