Hi all,

I'm quite new to all this programming world. I'm currently building a 3d printer with a RUMBA board and now I have to programme the motherboard. All is going great except I don't know where and how to edit what is displayed when the LCD powers on. It's a Geeetech LCD2004 and I'm using Marlin firmware. I want to add my printer's name when it starts up so that it is displayed in the font that my printer's name is in.
So is there a way to programme the board so that I can make it display exactly what I want it to?

Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Kind regards
Marinus

This is an Arduino forum.

I do not know what Marlin firmware is.
I do not know what a RUMBA board is.
I do not know what a 3d printer of an unspecified model by an unspecified manufacturer is.
I do not know what motherboard you are trying to "programme".

How can anyone help?

Hi,

RUMBA uses Arduino mega 2560 as the basis and Marlin firmware is just the program that has already been written for the use on 3D pinters.

You need to ask your question on a Forum where people are familiar with Marlin - maybe the RepRap Forum. Marlin is a complex program.

This Forum is for helping people write their own Arduino programs.
