Adding printer to meshmixer

[Anonymous]

Hello

I would like to add a Prusa mk3 printer to meshmixer. 

I found this https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-design-validate/adding-a-prusa-3d-printer-to-meshmixer/m-p... link.

I copied the information, but I don't know what the command line in "command line arguments" means. I don't know whether it is right or not, but I don't find any information about other kind of arguments and their meaning. 

Can somebody help ? What should be filled in this line ? 

Kind regards

Help: Adding a printer to MM explains how to setup a printer.

The command line arguments are optional and depend on the used printer software (as if you'd call the printer application via command line). To find information about whether your printer app supports such arguments and which arguments are needed to achieve this or that you'll need to search in its documentation.

It would be really nice if I understood  what is being asked for when the print preferences page asks for the Printer Software name.  My TAZ 5 runs Malin Sotware which is flashed to the printer.  There is no path, unless I make a file under "Marlin" the copy the hexidecimal code to that file.

Please help me out here. I have 5 days worth of printing and a few thousand errors to fix.

This is optional and only meaningful if the software you link to does the slicing. MM doesn't slice or produce some GCode. So you still need some slicer (as Cura, Slic3r or Skeinforce...) if there's no slicer software provided by the printer's manufacturer. Marlin is the firmware on your printer reading the GCode coming from a slicer.
