New to Cura - trying to set up printer

[ChrisK1962 1]

I have a Tronxy X6A printer and want to use Cura with it, but not sure how to configure Cura for it.  Is there on-line help or other assistance to help me with this?

 

 

May need some "Barney style" instruction on this...

 

Thanks

Hi Chris, welcome to the forum!

 

Some possibilities:

• choose one of the other Tronxy printers and modify the machine settings where needed
  
  
   
• add it as a custom printer

• create a complete new set of definition files

Good luck!

tinkergnome - I don't see any listing for Tronxy when I go in to set up the printer.    But, I did add it as a custom printer and found a link for some settings here:

I'll post later to let you know how things went.
