I've been using an older version of Repetier with my original Mendel (not Mendel Pro, not Mendel Prusa) and now I'm setting up a newer machine with the latest version, but I'm not sure of everything that is necessary.
My current setup:
Repetier v0.74
Slic3r and firmware current to the Repetier version
Windows XP
My new setup:
Repetier latest version
Windows 8.1
Do I need to change the firmware or settings to make it respond? I'm more of a mechanics than a software guy, so any help would be appreciated.
