MK3 USB port not functioning

Hi,

I purchased a Prusa 3D MK3 printer a year ago. I upgraded the firmware twice during the past year and it worked fine. When I try to update to the latest firmware (3.6) now, it fails. Also when I test the printer port it fails. I tried it with 3 different cable and 3 different computers, it fails with all.

Can you advise what to do?

Thanks,
- George

Might be worth checking to ensure RPI port is OFF in your printer settings.
I don't know if it makes a difference for firmware updates, but it certainly does interfere with Octoprint via USB port

Verify your port speed configuration. I get similar behaviour when trying to print direct from Slic3r PE if I select 250000 instead of 115200.

Problem solved: the setting RDi was not set to off.
