Wonder if you can help me.... I have just got a new 3d printer with a SD Card reader and I have connected it up to the pc by USB.....With my old printer I could copy the files using the the 3d printer app I use,,, but the new printer needs a .gcode file extension at the end so the printer can read it. But for some reason with the printer app, no files will copy over with the file extension...

So is there a app I can use that will see the card reader on the 3d printer so I can copy files on to it?...... Thanks

CH340 is just a really cheap USB to serial converter (I think UART then its RS232/422/485 based on downstream circutary).

You could copy files to it via the command line but I highly doubt the 3D printer will know what to do with it.

Commands
MODE COM4:115200,N,8 (baud rate based on device rest usually the same)

COPY file.gcode COM4: /B
