Topic: how to determine firmware version

Is there any way to tell what version of firmware I have?

I don't want to muck with arduino if I have the latest, and I do have a printer that just arrived in early December, so I expect I do. I ask because I tried the Repetier Host setup under the .1mm instructions and it was just awful. The stock Pronterface+ skeinforge worked great at .3mm. The Repetier setup just made terrible edges and the fill was even poor. So I'm guessing maybe I have old firmware?

thx

I got my printer in early november and it already had the newer firmware, so I would assume yours would have to be the newest as well.

Read the startup mesage when you first connect. It shows the firmware version.

Thanks The OldMan! It looks like I have current firmware as expected.

Have you tried the .1mm Repetier setup?

I do all of my printing using Repetier Host at 0.1mm
