1.) AstroPrint is compatible with standard Marlin & Sailfish firmware based printers. If your printer runs on proprietary firmware or heavily modified Marlin/Sailfish firmware, it's unlikely that it would work with AstroPrint. Also, please check out our printer compatibility page before your purchase a kit.
2.) For remote monitoring, you will need a linux compatible USB Camera (not included when you purchase an AstroBox Kit). We recommend the Logitech C920.
