Has anyone ever tried linking up their M2 to Solidworks with the "Print3D" function?
When I hit the "Print3d" button in SolidWorks it comes back with a statement of: "Before you can perform 3D printer-related tasks, you need to install a 3D printer. Please contact your 3D company for the appropriate printer drive." Has anyone done this?

Re: Solidworks "Print3D"
I noticed that button too. I am by no means an expert on this, and the SolidWorks help is surprisingly not helpful at all. Friom what I can tell the application is not even fully functional...after I dismiss the error message you mentioned, a dialog window pops up, but pressing most of the buttons appears to have no effect.
After digging online for a bit, I can say that it appears to be an "up-and-coming" or "beta" feature...

Definitely interested in seeing where this goes.
