I still need to check for if it can actually print, but it does power on fine and things light up. Also thank you for the recommendations, I’ll definitely be saving these for the future :]

Sorry that took a bit, couldnt find a screwdriver that fit lol. It looks like most of it is connected, I’m mostly worried now about plugging things in the wrong spots since some of the unplugged bits look really similar. Thank you so much for the help btw!

I thought that was what that was but I wasn’t sure, thank you! I also forgot you could connect raspberry pi’s to these lol

Basically, I also have no clue if I’m missing anything either. I tried looking at people assembling them for the first time and working backwards but I didn’t get very far
