New Matter Mod-T 3D Printer Driver #993

Open eskurt opened 4 years ago

I just got a New Matter Mod-T Printer and am having trouble getting it connected to the computer. The software is downloaded already. Does it need a driver? If so, where do I find that?

Since it is a 3D printer, you'd be better using a software that can simulate 3D view of your job, though, LaserGRBL still can stream your code. I couldn't find any info on how the machine's cable looks like, so I'll assume it is wireless only. You need to connect it with USB cable first.

After unboxing the Mod-T, you have to turn it on and connect it to a computer over USB running the New Matter software. That in turn connects to the printer, sets it to join your wireless network and sets you up with an account on the New Matter store to control the printer. Once this is done, you can disconnect the USB connection, as it isn't needed again. After this setup is complete and the printer is registered, you can load the filament and start printing through this web interface, without running any apps on the computer or a mobile device controlling the process.

It seems to me that your machine is incompatible with LaserGRBL.
