Need manual OK after every line of gcode!
Hi, I am totally new to 3d printing so I am sorry if this is a stupid question/issue.
I am running RH ver 1.5.6 on windows 10 and windows xp machines (just to make sure it was not a windows 10 problem). On both machines I need to press a manual OK after every line of gcode.
I am running a makibox with latest firmware.
The printer runs fine apart from this and my first print looked good (some weaving put not bad for a first run) except I pressed OK 3000 times! I can hit ok in batches so they seem to buffer too then stop and I have to hit OK another xx times as a batch and xx lines of gcode print then stops.
I have tried slicing with slic3r but to iliminate another possible error I tried printing the standard test cube gcode provided so no slicing needed. Both do the same.
Any obvious setting I have missed or known issue like this?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Off course that's with me pressing OK after each line of code for it to progress otherwise it just sits there after the first move. (That is after heating the bed taking the head to the zero position and getting the extruded to the correct temp)
How does the comms part work? The host send a command and the printer send an OK as a return. If it gets an OK then it send the next instruction?
Seems such a simple problem but it driving me nuts.
Any help appreciated. Thanks
It works fine. No need to hit OK after each line of gcode.
Makes me think there is some issue with RH 1.5.6.
Any thoughts as I would like to run RH as my choice of software .
Thank
As I still felt RH 1.5.6 was the issue (especially as Pronterface worked fine), I uninstalled it and loaded RH 1.0.6 and everything works fine!
Not sure what stops RH 1.5.6 from printing but for now I will stick with RH 1.0.6.
Thanks again for your help.
