Complete NewB looking for some info

Post by Dubs Chops » Thu Dec 15, 2016 5:15 pm

Hello all,

I just bought my first 3d printer. A lightly used Makergear M2 I have been having some software troubles. I cannot get Cura to connect to my Printer.

as a workaround I am slicing with cura and then opening in Pronterface and starting the print. this is causing some issues with the print trying to print 1/2" off the bed. I can use Slic3r and don't have this problem. Anyone know How I can just get Cura set up and working properly and print straight from it?
