This video walks you through setting up a new printer in Cura 4.0 and discusses creating a printer definition from scratch.
After waiting weeks, you just received your new 3d printer and completed assembling it. You have printed the model on the SD card without problem but now you are to print some models from the Internet.
So you download Cura, select add printer, and your printer is not listed. What should you do?
This video steps you through setting up Cura for your first print and covers printers listed in Cura, printers similar to printers listed in Cura and printer you need to configure from scratch.
Here is the link to download Cura:

Please leave any questions in the comments and let's continue to learn new things together.
