    It has been so long since I have thought about connecting a 3D Printer using the USB it must have sipped my mind.

    I would suggest a different route. I have both 3D Printers connected over a wired Ethernet with Raspberry Pi 2's that were picked up on E-Bay for about 20 dollars.
    Installing Raspberry Pi's - with OctoPrint onto both my 3D Printers simply because I have my 3D Printers in a different room than my working environment.
    They are also fitted with Web Cameras so I can watch the 3D Printing process constantly on a 2nd monitor connected to my Computer or Via a tablet or Cell Phone.

    However I do not Print from Cura anymore. I print exclusively from OctoPrint.
    I open OctoPrint from the Network button in windows which allow me to send sliced files for printing.
