Why are you using Octoprint instead of Klipper?
Octoprint is a software to manage a printer running marlin firmware.
Klipper is a different printer firmware, and is not something you can use to manage a printer running marlin.
I do want to look at flashing klipper to my sv06 someday but right now I'm just trying to print stuff without manually moving an SD card every time.
I used Octoprint for a few years before switching to Klipper. Octoprint was good but Klipper was like discovering that you can fly.
Are you using mainsail to interface with the printer? That is what I have seen most people recommend for klipper printers
Mainsail on my computer. KlipperScreen on my printers touchscreen. MobileRaker on iOS. I also use TelegramMoonraker to interact when away without opening ports. All managed via Moonraler (klipper’s API)
