Note
The print driver provided in the 3D printing SDK is an experimental 3D printer device driver still under development.
Driver installation
- Installation Instructions. Download the USBDRVEN.EXE file to a temporary or download directory, and make note of this directory for reference.; Go to the directory where the file was downloaded and double-click the USBDRVEN.EXE file to begin the installation.
- Installing the virtual COM port driver ATTENTION: Do not connect the device to a PC before installing the virtual COM port driver. Extract the downloaded file ('CP210xWindowsDrivers.zip' for Windows ® 7/8.1, or 'CP210xUniversalWindowsDriver.zip' for Windows ® 10) into a designated folder.In the designated folder, a folder labeled 'CP210xWindowsDrivers' or 'CP210xUniversalWindows.
To install the printer, use the following installation instructions:
Alpha Project Port Devices Driver Download Windows 10
If the 3D printer implements a Microsoft OS descriptor 3DPRINT (“MS_COMP_3DPRINT”) or is one of the supported Vendor ID (VID)/Product ID (PID) combinations in the MS3DPrintUSB.inf file, follow the steps in Automatic installation of the driver via PnP section below.
If the 3D printer is experimental or in development, follow the steps in Install the driver manually section below to print to an existing COM port or print G-Code to file.

For information on MS_COMP_3DPRINT, see Getting started guide - Microsoft Standard Driver for 3D Printers.
For more information on OS descriptors, see Microsoft OS Descriptors for USB Devices.
Automatic installation of the driver via PnP
If the device does not have a MSO descriptor or a supported hardware ID (VID/PID), add the new VID/PID combination to the MS3DPrintUSB_{architecture}MS3DPrintUSB.inf file and restart Windows with advanced settings and driver signing disabled. This option should only be used temporarily and for development purposes.
Execute these two commands from an elevated command prompt:
Plug in the USB serial device. A new Generic 3D Printer device should be installed under Devices and Printers.
Install the driver manually
Search for printmanagement.msc in Cortana.
Expand Print Servers, expand the name of your machine, right-click on Drivers, then select Add Driver….
Click Next, select (x64), click Next, then click Have Disk.
Navigate to the RenderFiltersV4_x64 folder, select MS3DPrinter.inf, then click OK.
Click OK, click Next, then click Finish.
From Windows Start, type Devices and Printers.
Click Add a printer.
Select The printer that I want isn’t listed.
Select Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings, then click Next.
Choose Create a new port and select 3D Port for the type of port, then click Next.
Enter a port name and click OK.
Click Have Disk….
Browse to the generic 3D Print Driver binary package from the SDK and click OK.
Click Next.
You can change the 3D printer name here if you want (it will show up in the printer UI), then click Next, then click OK to allow the command to be run as an Administrator.
After the installation completes, click Finish.

Virtual COM Port Driver | Last updated : August 21, 2019 |
| | Introduction | | Thank you for choosing the KENWOOD transceivers. You can connect your TS-990S, TS-890S, TS-590SG, TS-590S, or TH-D72A/E to a PC via a USB cable, or you can connect your TH-K20A/E, TH-K40A/E, TM-281A/E, TM-481A, or other transceivers to a PC via the KPG-22U/46U/186U programming cables by installing the virtual COM port driver in the PC, and then utilize the Radio Control Program, Memory Control Program, or other software we have provided. | | This virtual COM port driver installation program is provided by Silicon Laboratories Inc. | | After reading through the following explanations, feel free to download and install the software. |
| | Operating Environment | | 1. | Operating System (OS)
Windows® 7 (32-bit or 64-bit)
Windows® 8.1 (32-bit or 64-bit)
Windows® 10 (32-bit or 64-bit) | | 2. | Peripheral Devices
USB 2.0 interface. |
| | Installing the virtual COM port driver | | ATTENTION: Do not connect the device to a PC before installing the virtual COM port driver. | Extract the downloaded file ('CP210x_Windows_Drivers.zip' for Windows® 7/8.1, or 'CP210x_Universal_Windows_Driver.zip' for Windows® 10) into a designated folder.In the designated folder, a folder labeled 'CP210x_Windows_Drivers' or 'CP210x_Universal_Windows_Driver' will be created.
In the created folder, double click the 'Cp210xVCPInstaller_x86.exe' with 32-bit OS, or the 'Cp210xVCPInstaller_x64.exe' with 64-bit OS, and follow the instructions that appear on the display to install the virtual COM port driver.
|
| | Connecting the device to a PC | Turn the transceiver power ON, then connect it to a PC via a connection cable for the transceiver. The PC will detect new hardware.
The installation of the device driver software will start automatically.
If a reboot request appears, please reboot the PC. |
| | Confirming the COM port number | Open the 'Device Manager' to confirm which COM port number is assigned for connection with the device.
(Confirm the COM port number after turning on the transceiver and connecting the transceiver to the PC using a USB cable, or after connecting the KPG-22U/46U/186U to the PC.)
For Windows® 7
1. Click the Windows® [Start] button.
2. Right-click [Computer], then click [Properties].
3. Click [Device Manager] in the displayed window.
4. [Device Manager] window will appear.
For Windows® 8.1 and Windows® 10
1. Right-click the Windows® [Start] button.
2. Click [Device Manager] in the displayed window.
3. [Device Manager] window will appear.
Click “Ports (COM & LPT)” to extend it, then you can find “Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COMxx)”.The “COMxx” number is different depending on your PC.
In the above example, “Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COM3)” is listed. This means that COM3 is assigned for the connection with the transceiver.
Select this port number in the configurations for communication in the software you are using. |
| Note:
When connecting a TS-890S transceiver to the PC, 2 virtual COM ports are assigned as follows.
In the TS-890S Menu settings, these 2 virtual COM ports are defined as [Virtual 'Standard' COM Port] and [Virtual 'Enhanced' COM Port].
These 'Standard' and 'Enhanced' virtual COM ports are distinguished as follows.
•Double-click on these in the Device Manager to display the respective Properties windows.
•Select the 'Details' tab and then select 'Location Paths' (or 'Rutas de acceso de ubicación':Español, 'Chemins d'accès des emplacements':Français, 'Speicherortpfade':Deutsch, 'Percorsi':Italiano, 'Locatiepaden':Nederlands) from the Property drop-down menu.
•Move the mouse cursor to the line displayed in the 'Value' column (the top line if multiple lines are displayed) and check the number in the parenthesis on the right end of the character string.
The port displayed with the number (1) is the virtual COM (Standard) port of the transceiver.
In the display example above, the virtual 'Standard' COM port is assigned to COM3.
The port displayed with the number (2) is the virtual COM (Enhanced) port of the transceiver.
In the display example above, the virtual 'Enhanced' COM port is assigned to COM4.
Please also refer to the TS-890S Instruction manual for details.
