Using the printer with your computer

We urge you to use a PC at least at the beginning: once you build enough experience then you will be able to switch to
more advanced printing methods (SD card, print servers).

Therefore you need to physically connect your PC to the printer (supported OS are Windows 7/8, Mac, Linux).

Be sure to use the shortest possible USB cable: long cables will pick up electrical noise (= transmission problems = lost
prints). Also, be sure to be using best possible quality cables (shielded).

Most operating systems will discover new devices and install for you the needed drivers: if your PC won't be able to offer
this capability, you can still download the drivers from this site:

http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

Please refer to above web site for installation instructions on you specific PC architecture.

After making sure that your PC is connected to the printer, you can install printer management software.

Our choice goes to

Repetier Host

, being the most complete and advanced solution to perform any task you will ever need

to perform. We will therefore offer support just for this package: please download from Repetier website the most up-to-
date package for you operating system and follow supplied installation procedure.

Once software is properly installed and running, please select the language to be used: now onward we will use the
ENGLISH setup for the screen images. Clicking on PRINTER SETTINGS icon you will be shown the setup screens.
