  1. Thanks for the help.

    I see I have that plugin installed but I will try with the standard Cura settings first (advanced-cool) I do not yet have any warping issues with ABS (small prints)

    Edit, still want to now what that setting on the machine in your materials is for?

  2. Hi,

    Just bought a UM2+ and discharged the original.

    I tried to find this here but no luck. I don't understand the fan speed settings.

    I lowered the fan speed for ABS in the line of the Material.txt and imported it back into the printer, that worked.

    Now if I'm printing the fans go right up to 100% again on the second layer and I have to change it manualy on the machine again.

    So my questions:

    Do I have to change the fan speed setting in Cura ?

    And if so, what is that setting on the machine for?

  3. Now I know that it is actually not only me I adapted and now it works beter and faster.

    However it stil doesn't feel right to violate the feeder this way, I have the feeling driving a porch with a beagle engine. I wish there was an expert setting to adjust the filament travel distance.

  4. You have to only feed the filament into the feeder and then the feeder transports it rapidly almost to the print head.

    Then the feeder goes slow and you have to wait util filament is comping out of the printer head.

    Mine does 2/3 of the tube quick and 1/3 very slow, tonight I did the dishes while waiting for filament out of the print head.

    I think I do a ticket to UM tomorrow, it seems nobody knows the problem.

    Thanks anyway, Dree

  5. The version that comes with Cura 15.04.5

    It looks like I have to be more patient and let the filament come to the print head with "wait till material comes out of the nozzel" but that's very slow.

    I still think that before the filament stopped further down the tube.

  6. It's your second assumption, you understand correct, but...

    Before the update it came all the way out and when inserting all the way to the print head, after the update I have to pull it out 20 cm as you describe and when inserting I have to do the same 20 cm the way in, I cannot imagine that UM changed that distance 20 cm...

  7. Hi,

    I’m also in that boat, I mean literally, I’m a sailor and also ordered the heated bed at the beginning of December, now almost two months later I do not know when to expect it. Now at sea I don’t have the order nr with me. I hope it comes soon so I can install it next leave that starts February 2nd.

    Maybe there is some general news about it?

    Edit: I also don't have backorder details after updating mu store account

     

  8. Thanks for the info.

    I do not think retraction is happening within a solid infill. But I also do not know the rules of triggering the retraction. Sometimes with a greater surface it prints diagonally from the middle to a corner and the travels all over the project to finish the layer at the other end... does it retract then? And is it a disaster if it doesn't? I don't think you will ever notice,

  9. In expert settings, set the two retraction values to 0. ESPECIALLY minimal extrusion

    gr5,

    I don't see minimal extrusion, I heard you say this before, I do not remember the other one you mentioned.

    I only see Speed and Distance (default 40.0 and 4.5) am I missing something or are that the two to put to 0 ??

  10. I rather not give time scales, as people will be disappointed if we do not deliver in time. However, do not expect it in weeks, more in 2 months or so I guess. (The UM2 is still taking up a lot of manpower right now)

    Daid,

    It's two months later.... :wink:

    Already busy with it? Plans?
