Greetings all;

Building a design/builder for a 3d printer, which when a std usb to 
printer cable is connected between the computer and the 3d printer, 
Identifies as a ch341 convertor cable once it is plugged into the 
printer.

conman seems helpless, as does cutecom.

cura has a monitor that can drive an ender 3 over this same cable but 
I've not been able to establish a connection to cura, for whatever 
reason.

Perhaps conman or cutecom is not the correct way to do it. IDK, and the 
docs for this printer are as non-existant as the chinese company that 
made it. Its labeled as a NEWEREAL M-18-S, and is nearly twice as big as 
an ender 3. Work envelope is 310x310x400mm, and is the same bed-slinger 
style as an ender 3.

What would the next thing to try and discover why its not working?

Cheers, Gene Heskett
