I installed the four things in this order because this website told me to do so.

After installing all of that, I took the skeinforge profiles and alterations from here and put them into the skeinforge directory, overwriting the preexisting files. I should have backed them up in case shit fucks up.

Issue with connecting to the printer, hat do go into device manager to see what port it was. I set the data rate 19200 in pronterface in accordance with the guideline set on the whiteboard, changed the z speed to 60 and hit enter to confirm the change.

David gave me a copy of repsnapper which I used to interface with the white printer. It can be found here.

In this version of repsnapper, prior to printing, the settings in the Printerdefinition tab of repsnapper were adjusted to numbers as seen here.

Made sure that the set temperature line in the Gcode window of repsnapper said "M104 S200.0".

Adjusted home of the z-axis in 1 and .1 mm increments so the tip was barely (.5 to .2mm) above the board.
