			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Wasn&#039;t willing to flash software especially without seeing anyone do it with 1.1 plus. Managed to download a slic3r config that conforms to what the da vinci expects in its file. Although the automatic .bat program to convert the code to .3w didn&#039;t work, I just opened the g-code with open mod and saved which solved it. Now printing supports without wasting material! and realistic print times</p>]]></content>

So once you slice you can export the gcode to a file or send it to the printer.. However it won&#039;t connect to a stock Da Vinci.. You would need it flashed to Repetier as a stock Da Vinci uses a unique communication protocol that only a few programs support.</p>]]></content>
