  1. A value of 1 equals 74 micrometers
  2. The printer always uses both nozzles for the bed level measurements. The first probe is done with the right nozzle, and then the printer probes with the left nozzle. The printer then checks if there is ~1.5mm height difference between them. If you always get the “exceed expected value” error, please look closely to what happens and compare it to what I just described you. Especially watch closely if nozzle switching works correctly.
  3. I suspect your print head control pcb is broken, such noise values are really really bad. Please contact support or your reseller.
  4. I advise you to clean the spindle again, and relubricate. A tiny particle caught in the grease can cause this. Move the bed up and down by hand and check if you feel irregularities
  5. In the past, the "skip cooldown" option enabled you to skip the wait for cooling down the print bed. This feature is removed, because the printer does not take bed temperature into account in the post print sequence. Users with a material station still have to wait for the deprime procedure, which takes quite long. This cannot be skipped.
  6. Make sure you are signed in your account when you use Cura (top right of your screen). If the blue button in the right bottom of your screen says “print via cloud” (after slicing) you are signed in. When you are sure you are signed in, you should select your printer in the list (top left of your screen). And then in the top middle of your screen you can select the configuration. If your printer has a Material Station, with multiple spools loaded, you should see multiple configurations to choose from. if you select one of these configs, the print job should start without hiccup when you select “print via cloud”
  7. The grouping is not coming back, I’m sorry to say. Are you aware that you can still print from Cura to every printer over LAN? And every printer still has its own local queue, but indeed, jobs will not be divided across printers. Does this help you enough? The video feed is still available over LAN. And reprinting is brought back in 8.1.2
  8. You're on a very old firmware version. You cannot update in one step to this version, you need a so called stepping stone version. I'm not too familiar, please open a support ticket on our website, or read the documentation that is on our website
  9. From this story, it looks to me as if something is wrong with Cura. why do you think it may be related to your printer?
  10. The file format has not changed for years. New firmware or a factory reset is not likely to help. Have you tried another USB disk?
  11. I agree with Torgeir, the heating element is certainly not mounted correctly. The element I circled in red should be fully inserted in the brass heater block. I'm sorry this core came to you like this, you can replace it with your reseller. It is a 10 second fix. Loosen the small screw on the bottom of the heater block, and then you should be able to slide the heater fully in the block. Then tighten the small screw again.
  12. The Ultimaker 3 does not support printing filled materials. Your nozzle will wear out very quickly (really, after 1 spool of XT-CF20 the nozzle diameter has grown to 0.6mm, and is has also shortened) But while a print core can be replaced, even worse is the damage you do to the feeder. The feeder wheel will not be sharp anymore after 2-3 spools. This will cause underextrusion with all materials that you print with.
