I got the newest version of replicatorG that has skeinforge in it. I opened a.stl file and it showed up on screen. I clicked make Gcode and it said it couldnt run because there was no python interpreter and to go to python.org to get it. My new makerbot is sitting here and I can't do anything with it! So I just installed ReplicatorG for my ctc printer and the installation went well, im able to connect to my printer, move the motors and heat up the plate all from replicator. But when i try to print something, It tells me that i need a python interpreter and a Python screen pops up with the options to modify repair or uninstall python. Ive tried modify a couple times and repair a few times to.

Installation:
- Connect your printer’s USB cable to both the printer and the computer from which you will be performing the upgrade. Next, power your printer on — but do not connect from ReplicatorG to the printer. Check the “Connection (Serial Port)” submenu of ReplicatorG’s “Machine” menu. Make sure that you see the USB port for your printer listed. If it does not appear, then select the “Rescan serial ports” item of said sub-menu. You cannot proceed until your printer’s serial port appears.
- Again, do not actually connect from ReplicatorG to the printer: the firmware upload process itself will perform that step itself and will fail if ReplicatorG is already connected.
- From ReplicatorG select the “Upload New Firmware” submenu of the “Machine” menu.
- After selecting the printer type, click the “Next” button.
- You should then see different firmware versions listed. Unless you have cause to do otherwise, select the most recent version — the highest numbered one. Note that any versions ending in the letter “b” are for printers with broken SD card hardware. Only select a “b” version if you know that you need to. Also, when you click on a given version, any specific requirements for that version will be listed on the right hand side. Typically this includes the recommended revision of ReplicatorG. Remember that you can use any slicer with Sailfish; this is just a recommendation of the revision to use if you wish to use ReplicatorG to manipulate firmware parameters stored on the printer via the “Onboard Parameters” screen of ReplicatorG.
- Once you have selected the firmware version, click the “Next” button. Then select the USB port to which your printer is connected. Again, click the “Next” button.
- Depending upon the type of printer you have, you will next be instructed either to simply click “Upload”, or to press your printer’s mechanical reset button while simultaneously clicking the “Upload” button on your computer screen. For the Replicator 2 and 2X, there is no mechanical reset button and thus no need to press one. For most other printers, there may be one and you may need to press it. Refer to the documentation you received with the printer. When having to press a reset button, the timing can be tricky and frustrating, especially on Windows systems. It sometimes works best to press the reset button, then about a half second later, click the “Upload” button on your screen.
- Once the firmware has successfully downloaded, you are ready to configure Sailfish! Proceed to the next section for instructions on configuring Sailfish for your printer.

About Device Firmware:
Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.
On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device’s functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit’s overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn’t recommended and might not always be possible.
When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.
As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it’s best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.
Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device’s firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don’t miss a single new release.

It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.

Which version of Python do I have installed?
Python is a popular programming language. Like many other programming languages, there can be several different versions organized by release date. Certain applications may require a specific version of Python.
In this tutorial, learn how to check the Python version on Windows, Linux, or macOS systems.

Access to a command-line/terminal window:
- Linux: Ctrl-Alt-T, Ctrl-Alt-F2
- Windows: Win+R > type powershell > Enter/OK
- MacOS: Finder > Applications > Utilities > Terminal
There are different versions of Python, but the two most popular ones are Python 2.7.x and Python 3.7.x. The x stands for the revision level and could change as new releases come out.
When looking at the version number, there are usually three digits to read:
- the major version
- the minor version
- the micro version
While major releases are not fully compatible, minor releases generally are. Version 3.6.1 should be compatible with 3.7.1 for example. The final digit signifies the latest patches and updates.
Python 2.7 and 3.7 are different applications. Software that’s written in one version often will not work correctly in another version. When using Python, it is essential to know which version an application requires, and which version you have.
Python 2 will stop publishing security updates and patches after 2020. They extended the deadline because of the large number of developers using Python 2.7. Python 3 includes a 2 to 3 utility that helps translate Python 2 code into Python 3.
Most modern Linux distributions come with Python pre-installed.
To check the version installed, open a terminal window and entering the following:
Restrictions and other apply. Compare imac processors. S$6.98/month after free trial. Offer is valid for three months after eligible device activation. One subscription per Family Sharing group. Plan is automatically renewed until cancelled.
Most out-of-the-box Windows installations do not come with Python pre-installed. However, it is always a good idea to check.
Open Windows Powershell, and enter the following:
If you have Python installed, it will report the version number.
Alternately, use the Windows Search function to see which version of Python you have:
Press the Windows key to start a search, then type Python. The system will return any results that match. Most likely a match will show something similar to:
Or,
This defines which major and minor revision (3.x or 2.x) you are using.
If using a MacOS, check the Python version by entering the following command in the terminal:
The system will report the version.
Note: In some cases, this will return a screen full of information. If that happens, just scan through the file locations for the word python with a number after it. That number is the version.
Checking a System with Multiple Versions of Python
Python2 and Python3 are different programs. Many programs upgrade from the older version to the newer one. However, Python 2.7.x installations can be run separately from the Python 3.7.x version on the same system.
Python 3 is not entirely backward compatible.
To check for Python 2.7.x:
To check the version of Python 3 software:
Most systems differentiate Python 2 as python and Python 3 as python3. If you do not have Python 2, your system may use the
python
command in place of python3
.Replicatorg Python Version Download
Note: Python does not have a built-in upgrade system. You'll need to download the latest version and install it.
When writing an application, it is helpful to have the software check the version of Python before it runs to prevent crashes and incompatibilities.
Use the following code snippet to check for the correct version of Python:
