Hey so I have this ancient solidoodle, its the original one I think. I'm trying to use it again but it seems that solidoodle is out of business. Printer was barely used and I have no idea how to get it running. I've installed the repetier host and when I tried to connect it says access to port denied.
You could switch the mainboard to something open source like this:

It will let you use marlin and repetier or s3d or octoprint or cura or whatever you like. It will be open source. And you will have a touch screen. I have done this to all of my printers with much gratification at the results..

And here is what it is like using the touchscreen for your 3d printer..

The wiring is pretty simple, also. All the detailed info you will need on this board is right here..
