Do you have to have Java 8 on your computer to run the software for the M3?

I think UGS likes to have Java 8 and up.

There are other options for gcode senders that might not need Java. (See wiki.shapeoko.com/index.php/Communication_/_Control) But I think your best bet is to install Java 8 and use UGS Platform, at least until you get more familiar with the machine. Most people on the forum seem to use UGS and can provide advice if you need it.
