Topic: (Stock XYZWare issue) Device Not Found

Hi all. A couple days ago I got my davinci 1.0 up and running. I did a small print Saturday night and didn't touch it yesterday. Today I went to go set a print to run but keep getting a "Device not found" error every time I click print.

I'm running completely stock firmware (1.1.J firmware). Have not updated XYZ (using the 1.1.29.4). I'm running Windows 8.1. Like I said though, it printed fine on Saturday without any special work arounds.

I tried uninstalling XYZ & the drivers and reinstalling. No luck.

Haven't been able to find anything on google, hoping somebody can help me here. Thanks.

Are you using the same port on your PC? I know my printer only works in one port on my laptop before I changed over to Printing straight from the SD card

Edit: Just tried it with each USB port, no luck.

Did you switch to SD card printing just because it was easier or are there other benefits to it?

Well you can set temperatures so there is more control doing it that way I run my filament at 240 Degrees C and bed at 85 Degrees C and works a treat.

Using the XYZware you are very limited and I use slic3r and feel like im free haha can alter quite alot

Just been able to alter temperatures make a difference Immediately Also you can play around with feed rates

Would you recommend trying to do something like this though without it correctly working on stock right now?

Well I know I had a few issues with mine made the switch and I can finally fine tune it and fail it in. All you need to buy is a SD card extension so you can route the card holder into the print area for easy access
