• HS110 wifi power plug
• For simple setup using clear text passwords:
  • plink from putty-tools
  • install with sudo apt install putty-tools
• For recommended setup using ssh with a key file:
  • ssh with a private key generated by ssh-keygen and its public key pasted to the device's ~./ssh/authorized_keys file
  • see man ssh and man ssh-keygen for further help
• softScheck “tplink_smartplug.py” from https://github.com/softScheck/tplink-smartplug/tree/master

Copy the 5 files hs110_off, hs110_on, mks_poweroff , shutdown_sv06 (from below) and tplink_smartplug.py (from above link) into a single directory.

Make these files executable by using chmod +x *.

Have putty-tools installed (as stated above), unless you have generated ssh keys for passwordless login.

Modify hs110_off and hs110_on, so the IP-address points to your HS110 wifi power plug.

Without further modifications, these files should now work for the Sovol KlipperScreen.

For other devices, change the variables PRINTER, USERNAME and PASSWORD in mks_poweroff according to your settings.

Now you should be able to shutdown and power off the device using clear text passwords by executing shutdown_sv06.
To power it on, execute hs110_on.

To use passwordless login (recommended), you need to generate a key file.
You can either use putty's plink or standard ssh for that, but the keys need to be generated differently.

First create the “.ssh” directory (if not already existing)

• mkdir -p ~/.ssh ; chmod 700 ~/.ssh

For plink:

• Use puttygen to generate the key
  Example: puttygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/printerkey
• Use puttygen again to generate and display the accompanying standard ssh public key
  Example: puttygen ~/.ssh/printerkey -L
• See man puttgen for further details

For standard ssh:

• Use ssh-keygen to generate the key
  Example: ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/printerkey
• Use cat ~/.ssh/printerkey.pub to display the ssh public key
• See man ssh-keygen for further details.
• Set the PLINKCMD variable in mks_poweroff to ssh

Then

• Make the keyfile unreadable to other users: chmod 600 ~/.ssh/printerkey
• Adjust the PLINKKEY variable in mks_poweroff so it points to your private key file (~/.ssh/printerkey in these examples)
• Empty the PASSWORD variable in mks_poweroff
• Log into the device using ssh and add the public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys:
  • nano ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
  • Paste the public key line and press “CTRL+X” to quit, press “Y” to confirm once and press “ENTER” to confirm again and quit.

Now you should be able to shutdown and power off the device without clear text passwords.
