Print file from USB

jeff · 2016-03-23 13:21:02

Today I copied a slc file to my USB and tried to select the file from Plates/Add From USB, however I could not find it in the drop-down, is there any missing step?

Note I can list the USB files from pi terminal.

Thx

Make sure usbmount has been installed by typing below command on terminal.

sudo apt-get install usbmount

It list files on /media/usb folder. If the problem persist, please, attach result of command below.

ls la /media

jeff · 2016-03-24 14:00:21

I'm not able to get the files still, maybe it's due to NTFS format of my USB.

Could you post below command's output too?

ls -la /media/usb

Actually it looks like kind of bug to me, maybe we do skip some filenames or etc.

jeff · 2016-03-25 14:05:27

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls -la /media/usb
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Mar 24 21:28 /media/usb -> usb0

Well, it seems a problem with usbmount. But the usb device does attached. Here is last portion from /var/log/messages

jeff,

It is correct, it is a softlink. Could you send output of this command too?

ls -la /media/usb0

And screenshot from "add from usb" page

jeff · 2016-03-26 15:02:00

Thanks for your quick response! The folder is empty.

Shahin · 2016-03-26 15:45:07

Where is your flash mounted? /media/usbn?

jeff · 2016-03-27 15:24:58

I can't see any file in any /media/usbn folder, so to me it's not a bug of your software but somewhere broken between usbmount and the raspbian. I'll take a close look.

I am having the same problem, but I can list the content of the my pendrive using a terminal and the comand: "ls -la /media/usb0"
However when I use "Add from USB" on nanodlp the drop-down field is empty.
How can I fix it?

Shahin · 2016-08-09 19:05:03

Roger,

Could you share output of the "ls -la /media/usb0" command?

RogerP · 2016-08-09 21:17:11

Thanks for the reply.

Bugfixed. Try beta version, thank you

RogerP · 2016-08-09 21:59:36

Installed Build 1209.

Same problem: files listed via terminal, no drop-down options.

Shahin · 2016-08-09 22:14:03

It is very strange, add a svg or slc file to the usb stick and see if they being displayed or not.

RogerP · 2016-08-09 22:28:21

The same.

I changed the file name and include a svg and scl file. Nothing on drop-down, but in terminal:

RogerP · 2016-08-10 19:06:36

Hi Shahin, could you find the problem?

Shahin · 2016-08-11 03:39:11

Yes, the most probably you have skipped installation of usbmount during nanodlp setup.
Connect to rpi terminal through putty and run command below.

sudo apt-get install usbmount

RogerP · 2016-08-11 12:48:11

I had it already installed so I decided to upgrade and update my RPi3.

Now it is working.

Thanks for your help

bman · 2017-09-07 05:40:05

I am having the same problem. Updated rpi to build 1589 and still no joy. Files appear in terminal, but not in nanodlp "add from USB" menu.

Shahin · 2017-09-07 05:52:02

The issue has been fixed on build 1593

bman · 2017-09-08 02:22:21

When will build 1593 be available? I updated nanodlp like a week ago and build 1589 is what I automatically got.

Shahin · 2017-09-08 04:58:37

Upgrade to the beta version.
