I tried restarting the computer... running the Ardurinor program and in windows 8 device menu ran the troubleshoot on the device before the Repitier program. I tabbed to manual control and it said no commands waiting.
Not sure but everything seems good!

I hit the emergency button and when it came back I was able to attempt my first print. I wonder what can cause commands waiting?

I know that if I leave mine for a while it'll just stop responding and I have to reconnect it... But I don't think that's the same issue you had.

I see this occasionally, I think it's a firmware issue, I never saw it in the 0.8 firmware versions. I tend to see it if I extrude manually several times, though since I dropped the connection baud rate in an attempt to fix some comms errors I was seeing it seems to have gone away.

One thing you could try doing is lowering your BAUD rate in both your eeprom settings and your printer-host settings. Sometimes a computer just can't keep up and it'll throw errors.
