I had some time to install a Olimex A20 with the 7 inch touch screen on my TAZ. The printer is now wireless connected to the internet and my Mac. No need to let the Mac running while printing for hours.

I first installed linux, but the board kills linux on the SD card every time it is not shut down properly. Now I’m running Android and GcodePrintr. I can now send my gecode over wifi to the printer. And i can now order Pizza with my TAZ. ![:mrgreen:](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/lulzbot/original/1X/442e459c5ced45cb70e8a05e77e07cea6fee4928.gif "Mr. Green")

Well done sir! good to see TAZ 1s evolving 😃

Let us know if you need a linux distribution for the a20, we’re currently running octoprint on Olimex A20’s and beagle bone black’s

Enjoy that touch screen (and that pizza)
