Hey guys,

I searched through the forums all last night, and couldn't find a solid answer to my question.

I'm designing a new controller board for a proprietary printer ... I won't say what printer yet, but it's fairly common.
This printer is currently closed source, and has REALLY bad slicing software, so most people have thrown them away.

I was wondering what board is most supported by the Marlin 2.0.x firmware?
I've combed through the source code (I'll be making some modifications myself) but can't find any that stand out.

I've already ordered a Teensy 3.6 as a starting point, I'd like to go with the beefiest UC, I'll be using 256x stepping controllers and would like the speeeed.

Also, same question on LCDs. I see there's some discussion around LCD's taking cycles away from the 8bit microcontrollers.
What's the biggest / best LCD supported by Marlin? if speed wasn't an issue?

Thanks all!

Existing smoothieware based boards, because they already exist a large numbers.


But considering Marlin 2 is not out of beta, its is not being used that much yet...
