[cura 2.1.2 cant find printer]

A cleaner way to reintroduce other printers is to modify the getSerialPortList function in USBPrinterOutputDeviceManager.py.

Around line 263:

-                    if not only_list_usb or "USBSER" in values[0]:

+                    if not only_list_usb or "USBSER" or "VCP" in values[0]:

This simply lets Cura accept both USBSER and VCP as valid port types.

 

Many thanks for sharing this. My Anet A8 is now recognized with Cura 2.5

By the way, the file is in /plugin/usbprinting/
