[title] Getting Cura Started
-[* 1] When you initially open Cura, it will force you to set up a new printer from the start. We'll be using custom printer setups later in the guide, so we'll just blow through the setup and delete this printer profile later.
- [* 1] If you had a previous version of Cura installed, it will pop up asking to remove the old version. We suggest you do this to remove any old Cura information from the computer.
-[* 1] Select the "Add a non-networked printer" drop down menu.
-[* 1] Expand "Custom" and choose "Custom FFF Printer", then click "Next"
-[* 1] Ignore everything in the "Machine Settings" box and just click "Next"
+[* 1] When you initially open Cura, it will force you to set up a new printer from the beginning. We'll be using SeeMeCNC custom printer slicing profiles. So this initial configuration is not used for anything other than to get Cura past initial setup screens.
+[* 1] Select setup or "Get Started" when Cura prompts and agree (or disagree) to their User Agreement.
+[* 1] Select "Next" until you see the Add a printer window. Choose "Add a non-networked printer".
+[* 1] ***Ignore everything*** and just click select "Next" (++you DO NOT use SeeMeCNC printers from this list++)
