What is the problem?
I recently put the Octopi image on my SD card into my Raspberry PI. I set up my account for Octopi and logged in on my laptop. However, when I try to log in on my raspberry pi on another desktop, I see the black screen and lines of text, and it asks me for my Login and Password. I input the default login information (pi and raspberry), and it says it is incorrect. There is no other screen I can go to on my Pi. Somehow, I made it past the login lines, then it was just a line that said "pi@octopi: $" and I am not sure which command to input. I do have a link the Pi gave me so I can access my Octopi page for my printer, which is listed before the login lines. I was able to access the link on a separate computer, so I am not sure why I am having trouble logging in and moving past this screen. Any help is appreciated.
What did you already try to solve it?

It seems to me like you're mixing up ssh and the webinterface.
You should reach the webinterface in your browser with either http://octopi.local , http://octopi or http://youroctopiip
Hello, thank you for your reply! I'm finally back to working on this again, and stuck at the same spot on my pi, with the pi@octopi command showing up, and not sure what to put. I did type "passwd" and reset my password from the default "raspberry" to a custom password. My ultimate goal is to get Octoprint, so I can use it for my 3D printer. I'm using this article https://all3dp.com/2/octoprint-setup-how-to-install-octopi-on-a-raspberry-pi/ as my reference, and trying to follow their instructions for logging in via SSH.
There's not much information here to go on (nothing about the OctoPrint version, OctoPi version, printer, firmware, browser, operating system, ... as much data as possible) so this is a generic answer...
On my Windows 10 desktop I use PuTTY as my SSH client. When I connect to my Raspberry Pi 3B running OctoPi 0.18.0, OctoPrint 1.5.2 under Python 3.7.3, I get three lines that are waiting for input (bold text is what I type):
login as: pi
pi@octopi's password: raspberry (the default password, not the one I actually typed)
pi@octopi:~ $
This last line is the standard prompt from bash. If you get this one, you are successfully logged in.
As of OctoPrint 1.5.0, you also need a username and password to connect with a browser. OctoPrint will ask for these the first time you connect with a browser. They are usually different from the OctoPi username (pi) and password, but they could be the same (as they are on my system) so I only have to remember one username (pi) and one password.
There is also a way to configure OctoPrint so that this username and password are not needed when logging in from a system on the same local area network as the RPi and there's a plugin to help you configure that.
