## Overview

Upgrade the Select Mini's Web UI and enable faster wifi file transfers.
Upgrade the Malyan 200 or the Monoprice Select Mini's Web UI and enable faster Wi-Fi file transfers. Built using Bootstrap so the UI is mobile-friendly and tablet-friendly.

While you want to update the UI of the printer, you don't want the web server on the controller working too hard. This upgrade is designed to minimize the amount of data the web server has to serve. You browser will be doing move of the heavy lifting.

## Getting Started

1. Download and unzip `MP-Select-Mini-Web` from GitHub.
2. Point a web browser window to your printer's IP address. `http://IPAddressHere`
3. Now browser to the upgrade page. `http://IPAddressHere/up`
4. On this upgrade page, there are three options. We are only concerned with the last one "Upload web." DO NOT CLICK THIS YET.
5. Directly across from this button saying chose file. Click this button and select webui.html from the folder you unzipped earlier.
6. NOW you can click the button to the lowest right that says "Upload web".
6. If things worked, the response will display one word only. "OK" If you see that your good to go!
7. Usually it is good to power cycle your printer at this point.
8. Once your printer is back on-line, browse to `http://IPAddressHere`. You should now have the upgraded web ui with full manual control.
