MK4 bed leveling...

Hello - 

Brand new here, I have a question please.  I have a MK4 that passes all tests and prints with no issues.  I also have a Raspberry pi4 connected using Octoprint.  

The MK4 is running the latest firmware 5.1.3.  For the Raspberry and Octoprint I followed the Octoprint Installation Guide.  And finally, i'm using a MacBook Pro running Chrome to access the IP address I have statically set for Octoprint.  In addition I have white listed all my plugins for that static IP address.

Because I wanted to find out how flat the heatbed is, I have tried to load various plugins for Octoprint to see the results.  Every plugin I have tried will cause the "test" to be conducted (with or without heat) but when it is 'done', the results are never displayed back in Octoprint.

I realize the MK4 does the self-leveling bit - matter of fact, that is one of the many reasons I bought the MK4 because I read that was one of the big advantages.  So my question:  why am I not able to see the result of the leveling test? 

I read this might have to do with ad blockers, and even after white listing the IP address that did not solve things.  I also read something about the Prusa firmware not getting along with Octoprint.  That is why I thought about asking here about this.

Thanks!

RE: MK4 bed leveling...

Hello, I am using Bed Level Visualizer addon for Octoprint ( https://github.com/jneilliii/OctoPrint-BedLevelVisualizer) and as a G-CODE for bed leveling I used gcode from this page: https://gist.github.com/TheZackCodec/5545ff29c7988c1d3e3a7e8793a0a57a . And it works 🙂
