Problems connecting to Printrboard from Mac.
November 05, 2012 10:55AM
Hi Folks

We just finished building a Prusa Mendel that uses a Printrboard for electronics. I'm having trouble getting it to talk to my computer.

I'm using a MacBook Pro running MacOS X 10.8.2 (latest).

I've applied power to the board and attached it via a USB cable. The computer is (most of the time) recognizing the board as a "tinyduino".

I'm trying to use "pronterface-mac-Mar2012.app" to connect to the printer.

When I attempt to connect I either get "Connecting..." followed by nothing or else I get "Couldn't connect to printer".

Does anyone have suggestions as to how I might troubleshoot the problem?

Thanks.
