Configuration
Do NOT try to add a new "networked printer"! This is only for Ultimaker printers.
QIDI printers are configured through the extension menu bar:
- Start Cura
- From the menu bar choose: Extensions -> QidiPrint -> QidiPrint Connections
- Click "Add"
- Enter the name of your printer
- e.g.,
X-MAKER
- e.g.,
- Enter the IP of your printer
- e.g.,
192.168.10.205
- e.g.,
- Click "Ok"
- Done!
Now you can load a model and slice it. Then look at the bottom right - there
should be the big blue button with you printer name on it!
