My Prusa i3 does not appear to have any sound device incorporated. I've read "Writing G-Code: Audible Alert at end of print" and it seems everything needed to implement audible alerts is built into the G-code syntax and firmware but my rig appears to be lacking the necessary noise maker.

At least on my Ender 3 V2, the speaker is on the LCD control board and not on the mainboard itself. – agarza Sep 12 '22 at 15:38

There is no LCD unit on my printer, nor an SD card reader. It's directly connected to a PC. – allardjd Sep 12 '22 at 19:42

I just looked in the Marlin FW pins_RAMPS.h where the pin assignments are located:
#define BEEPER_PIN 37
Please check for yourself. I assume you run Marlin, but my version is old and may not be correct.
As you mentioned there is no LCD on your printer so most likely this pin is free, just need to find it.
Also, just a warning, use a proper buzzer or beeper module with the onboard transistor. Do not connect a buzzer directly to the signal pin as the current draw can kill your controller.

1Thanks for your answer but we are looking for comprehensive answers that provide some explanation and context. Very short answers cannot do this, so please [edit] your answer to explain why it is right. Additionally, we prefer answers to be self contained where possible. [*link only*](https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/8231/) answers are frowned upon (as links [tend to rot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_rot)) & will be rendered useless if the linked-to content disappears. If you add more context and detail from the link, it is more likely that people will find your answer useful. – 0scar Dec 23 '22 at 15:42

Hi and welcome to SE.3DP. Unfortunately, our answer is a bit too brief. As already stated, please [edit] and expand your answer, otherwise it will probably be deleted, or converted into a comment. Many thanks. – Greenonline Dec 23 '22 at 17:05
