Topic: Using Slic3r and Printer Firmware
Hey guys this is my first post not his forum, but I have been following along for quite some time. I have a Da Vinci 1.0, I am really liking the printer so far but am looking forward to using slic3r and my own filament. Now I have a couple questions regarding the printer firmware and the software version. As of right now my printer is running FW 1.1.J and xyzware is 1.0.6. These are what came installed as I have not updated anything. Now another thing I should mention is I am using a mac which means no base64 encoding is required. I have tried creating a few files with slic3r, changing the heading, then importing them in to xyzware with no luck. So my question is what is the newest version and firmware I should be running to make sure I can use slic3r.
Another thing I should mention is I don't need to go through XYZware, I am fine using an SD card extension and bypassing XYZware completely.
Thanks for the help!
