Posted · Loading Cura onto a MAC system for use with a Monoprice MINI-Select Printer

I am just starting out with 3D printing and purchased a mono price mini-select system. since I use a MAC system the CURA files that came with the system will not work. When started using 15.04 and then saw the update for 2.6 and upgraded. Since then my system will not work via USB and when it does print the print starts in the left front corner. When I print from my MSD it prints in the center of the bed and without any problems. I suspect that I am not selecting the right printer to get the CURA software from. Is there a MAC setup wizard or a recommended printer to select?

Appreciate any direction or help.

Bill

    We depend on others to provide the right settings for non ultimaker printers. We don't test those at all.

    It could well be that the provided files for that printer are wrong.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
