3D Printing Slicing Software "Cura" causes 6300 to intermittently TX

Anyone 3D printing using Cura as a Slicer?  I use the same computer for slicing as SmartSDR is installed on.  When I have Cura open, the PTT on the 6300 intermittently keys and unkeys about every 8 seconds for a brief second.  Obviously Cura, is accessing a comm port that the Flex is using, but I can not figure out how to turn it off.  The 3D printer is not hooked up to the computer, I only slice files with Cura.

Thanks and 73!

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions.  Looks like I corrected the issue.  You have to go in "Plugins" and disable usb printing.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
