    I purchased a refurbished R1plus+, I just powered it up today. How can I see if the firmware needs updated to the newest, or if it came from the factory updated?

    All Robo R1 printers come equipped with Marlin 1.0.0 even though Robo had multiple versions using their own numbering scheme there were NO functional differences between any of them. If the printer works, it has the correct firmware.

    All of the Robo supplied R1 firmwares are based on 1.0.0. Only community versions of the firmware are newer

    I know on my first R1+, I chatted with someone on the Robo website, and they walked me through something having to do with the Arduino. Now the lcd reads Robo v2.
