Makerbot Replicator

[SilverVanMan63]

We have an original MakerBot Replicator. The one that has sides cut out of ply using a laser cutter.

Does anyone know what software will drive it. The current downloads of Makerbot Desktop and MakerBot Print will not connect to the 3d printer using a USB cable.

Additionally, does any one have any instructions?

It’s a few years since I had a play with one but I seam to remember Cura did that.

When we had one, we transfered the Gcode (I think that's right) to an SD card and then plugged that in the replicator to select the file to print.
