2.0 Downloading M3D Software
1. Please visit http://www.PrintM3D.com/downloads to download your Operating
System specific M3D Software. Download the M3D Software to a known location,
like your Desktop. Run the installer and continue through all windows and
prompts.
2. Run the M3D Software after it has fully installed. Your computer is now ready to
automatically detect any M3D printers that are connected.
3. Please allow your printer to update to the most recent firmware. DO NOT turn
off your printer or computer during firmware and software updates.
*Turn Windows Automatic Updates to Inform Only*
When
running a Windows PC, turn Automatic Updates to “Check for
updates, but let me choose whether to download and install
them” from the Control Panel; this will prevent Windows
Automatic Updates from restarting your computer (resulting
in a print failure) while The Micro+ is in operation.
