But the heater profiles are not right.when I go to heat the printer it thinks it heating, but its actually not. I prefer repetier definitely though! So many options! </p><p>Are you running repeteir?</p>]]></content>

Ugh.. that is entirely unnecessary for something like this.&nbsp; I can view million+poly full color models on this machine without issues and without Solidoodle specifying what is needed to run the program I was left dead n the water.&nbsp; This machine can run Open GL but it is not good at all, with that being said though, it does not even attempt.&nbsp; </p><p>Any idea on a solution that does not involve me buying a new computer as it seems fairly pointless to buy a new computer for such an inexpensive device.&nbsp; I mean, I can run a $70K-ish printer off this laptop, why can&#039;t I run a $600 one???&nbsp; Seems a bit ridiculous to me..</p>]]></content>
