How to install your Markhor3D D7500 on CURA
NOTE: For video tutorials, visit Youtube: Click Here
Go to windows device manager and plug in your Markhor3D to your computer using a USB cable. The list of devices should flash and a new CP210x UART Bridge Controller device should appear under Ports. If it appears under Other devices, you need drivers that can be downloaded
from https://www.silabs.com/…/sof…/CP210x_Windows_Drivers.zip
Once the drivers are installed, download Ultimaker CURA from https://ultimaker.com/software/ultimaker-cura, install it, and run it.
Start adding a new printer from Settings > Printer > Add Printer
Select Add a none networked printer > Custom > Custom FFF Printer and add the printer name as Markhor3D.
Change the following Parameters and leave the rest to default.
Y (Depth) > 150
Start G Code for improved printing
I’ve added pre-build hot-end tip cleaning for Markhor3D and a faster start sequence. You may like to replace your existing G Code in Cura > Settings > Printers > Manage Printers > [Markhor3D activated] > Machine Settings > Start G-Code
