Visit the Creality website<\/a>, download the firmware, and load it onto a MicroSD card. From here, follow the same steps above: turn off the printer, insert the SD card, turn on the printer, and wait for the flashing process to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat Does Jyers Firmware Add to Ender 3 V2?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Now, that we have an understanding of what Jyers firmware is all about, it’s worth diving into the features and options it provides when loaded on the Ender 3 V2:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Manual Mesh Bed Leveling <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Jyers offers the option to use manual mesh bed leveling. It’s a vastly more precise and efficient way to level the bed, short of installing an automatic bed leveling probe like the BL Touch, than the basic manual process usually used on the Ender 3 V2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jyers\u2019 mesh leveling functions allow you to choose a mesh with 9 to 25 set points on the bed, then to adjust the z-offset for each of these for more accurate leveling and better first-layer adhesion. It\u2019s a great way to compensate for the slight irregularities on the bed\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Automatic Bed Leveling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Support for automatic bed leveling probes, setting you up for a hardware upgrade to a probe like the BL Touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Assisted Manual Leveling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Provides guided manual leveling, a solid improvement over the unassisted leveling of the stock Ender 3 V2 firmware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Filament Change\/Advanced Pause<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This function recognizes the M600 G-code command, allowing you to pause the printer mid-print and swap in a different filament, useful for multi-color or multi-material prints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The function will automatically move the print head, unload the filament, purge, and load fresh filament with very little input from the user, other than inserting new filament into the hot end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Full File Name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Displays full file names in the UI by scrolling to the right when hovering over the model. This is useful if you\u2019re managing numerous versions of the same models with similar names and need to differentiate between them without loading a MicroSD card onto a computer to check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Live Z-Offset Tuning <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This feature allows you to tune the z-offset live during the printing process to ensure the correct distance between the bed and nozzle for proper layer adhesion and smooth surface finishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Customizable Pre-Heat Profiles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You can adjust the parameters of pre-heat profiles for different filaments like PLA, PETG, and ABS to suit different brands of filament and your project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PID Autotune<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
An on-display PID tune function to calibrate hot end and bed temperature fluctuations to provide controlled and consistent temperatures which improve overall print finish and quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Improved and Customized UI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Jyers introduced a customizable UI where you can adjust colors (cursor, boxes, text, status bar, etc.), brightness, how progress is displayed, and turn sounds and the display on\/off as needed. There are also statistics for the number of prints, successful prints tracking, filament used tracking, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Improved Octoprint Integration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Unlike the stock firmware which offers next to no on-screen info when using Octoprint, Jyers expands this to show a progression bar and filename.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
EEPROM<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Jyers saves printer settings on the mainboard rather than on the inserted SD card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pros and Cons of Jyer Firmware on Ender 3 V2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Here, we\u2019ll outline the general pros and cons of Jyers for the Ender 3 V2 to give you a broad sense of what the firmware offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
