1 Printer of 7 will not communicate
I've set up my 8 printers on 2 pi severs over the last few days. I'm very happy with the server software, but I cannot get one of my PRUSA MK3s working.
I see the port on the pi, I've tried multiple USB cables, USB ports, and hubs. All of which work on other printers. I can plug this MK3 in to my PC and connect to it through SLIC3R, I updated the firmware, just in case. I have 3 other MK3s working fine. If I unplug this printer and move the cable to another printer it works. This makes it seem like an issue with the printer itself, just want to confirm before I complain to PRUSA.
This is a copy of the console readout that seems to apply to the issue.

When you can upload firmware and display works there is no hardware problem I think. Have you selected Marlin as firmware? With repetier-firmware selected you also get no communication. And baud rate should be 115200. These are the 2 main things in server that could prevent success on connection apart from using wrong usb port. Especially if you have 2 identical printers they might have same id so you should connect port by path so usb port connected matters.
