      Not sure if this is possible with the hardware but currently I can use an octoprint plugin to send a pause command when an optical sensor sends a GPIO pin low on the Pi i.e when the filament runs out. Would be a great add little add on to the firmware if there is GPIO on the expansion port.

        You can already do this, see this post https://www.duet3d.com/forum/thread.php?pid=966#p966 and the following posts in that thread.
