I won't use it much that way, but I had to know that it worked in case something was fubarred inside.

All is good and I am a happy bunny and almost got the parts printed for a working Stirling engine.

A error on my part setting up Slicr. I used Repetier ptotocol instead of Cura protocol as it should be.

Keep at it, someone will be along that knows a little more.

I would use Repetier as well but can't find the file.

I have couple of Win boxes & an IMac.  Repetier site lists a file for the Mac, v 0.56.  It's been the same for near 3 years, no upgrades like the Win version, but it works fine.  I don't believe there are any machine-specific drivers.   Without the Repetier software, my Mac sees a USB123 something or other, simple recognition of the port being used.

I have looked all over and can't find it. I have been looking for a few hours so I am going to turn this all off now and try tomorrow.

You can try asking on MEM stan is a mac guy may be able to help

It really isn't a biggy as it is printing from any of the cards I put in it so I can still get on with my project.

I would use Repetier as well but can't find the file.

I plug the machine into my Mac and the computer won't find the printer at all.

Thanks for any help
