# How to connect a Geeetech Prusa I3 Pro B to Repetier-Host on mac

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-12-14)

My y-axis is running in reverse and slamming into the front of the machine. This is not ideal for my needs.

I need to connect to it with the Repetier-Host software to fix this, and in general. This connects fine via USB, but then says `Unknown printer firmw... Waiting for temperature`. Sending further commands does nothing as far as I can see.

Does anyone know what I need to install to get this working?

The most effective and fast solution is to reverse the connector of rearrange the wires in the connector.
