What OS are you using? Does it matter how long Cura has been running before it stops recognising new printers? Is it a consistent thing or just sometimes?

It's Windows 10, the "thing" is very much consistent and can be reproduced by 100%. No , it does not matter how long Cura has been running - it's simply about the order what's been started / switched on first.
You start Cura before switching on the printer, Cura's only offered choice is "Save to File"...

Never tried this, because I didn't connect "managing" Printers to the problem. Sure will try these days as a workaround.
Yay for windows issues. This is actually an issue with Windows which caches certain things. It should re-do it after 30 minutes, but I can understand people not wanting to wait for that.
Quite hard to believe there shouldn't be a way to get around this behaviour. Ok there's no printer driver for UM3 as far as I know, But continually testing an IP connection should be feasible anyway...

Hi newie with a mini pro 3d printer; I just checked the minimum specs and my pc laptop passes with flying colors; doing a quick test, have the micro usb cable hooked; Cura "sees" the printer, but keeps asking for a network. But no network is required, correct?
Thanks!

I agree it's a pain, did you try "manage printers" and just refresh? easier than restarting cura.... but again I agree this should not be necessary....
