Repetier Server on Raspberry Pi 3's

I'm trying to setup Repetier Server Pro on a Raspberry Pi 3b, but I'm having a problem connecting to printers, or even understanding my USB device list. I can generate a list of attached USB devices using the lsusb command using SSH, but I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm using a powered USB hub connected to the pi, but I can't read any of my printers that are attached:

pi@Repetier-Server:~ $ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0bda:5411 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:5411 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0424:7800 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:2514 Standard Microsystems Corp. USB 2.0 Hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:2514 Standard Microsystems Corp. USB 2.0 Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

I believe that my hub is Device 007, but I'm not really sure how to tell. All printers are connected to the hub, and the hub is compatible with the pi.

Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Yes, 7 is your printer with FTDI 232 chip. Works the same but these chips get a different name for serial ports. D you see it in the port list under /dev/serial/by-id/.. ? If not check if you have a /dev/ttypUSB... port. That is how they get named.
  • Thanks, that solved it.
