OK, @Neotko is the true S3D champion here but I'll try to give you a starting point.
In the process settings go to tab 'Advanced' and tick 'Avoid crossing outline for travel movements'. Then check the result. Sometimes it's still crossing the surface. Then you have to play around with the 'Maximum allowed detour factor' just below on the 'Advanced' tab. For some prints I had to put this factor to 50 to make sure it really takes 'the way around the lake'.

You're right, it was more focused on the results. The BCN3D Sigma was there, showing dual extrusion printing and a local guy with his own 3D printer kit. And of course one or the other RepRap printer.

I have been to Mini Maker Faire Zürich today. Number of Ultimaker printers there: zero! What does that mean?
-
It's also called combing line if it is a travel move without retraction (you will find a number of posts with that topic here).
There are two possibilities to avoid it: combing along walls and/or z-hop.
Are you slicing with S3D or with Cura?
-
Buy an Ultimaker printer for each.
Seriously, I agree that the sheets should be available alone (maybe as a pack of 25 or 50 sheets).

Der Zortrax druckt sehr gut Zortrax-HIPS. Das heisst Material und Drucker sind optimal aufeinander abgestimmt. Wer dieses Erlebnis auf Anhieb mit seinem Ultimaker haben möchte, verwendet Ultimaker Material für das es Voreinstellungen in Cura gibt. Ansonsten gilt eben herantasten. Die Tipps von @Nicolinux sind da sicher ein guter Startpunkt.

@valcrow: Can you please keep us updated about the lifetime of the sheets? I guess you do not have enough prints on one sheet to see a degradation of the adhesion?
-
What material do you need such a behavior for? Heating up the nozzle should take much less time than heating up the bed. Cura heats the bed up to a certain level and then starts to heat the nozzle in parallel. On my UM2 with 35W heater the two are pretty well synchronized.
Please be also aware that legacy Cura you wrote the plugin for is not supported anymore by Ultimaker.
-
If you have an UM2 selected there is not yet a possibility to change the nozzle size (@nallath: this will be implemented, right?). But you can change the line width which should have the desired effect.

I vote for @gr5's theory no. 1.

Not sure, but if works it works. There's a lot of security by the firmware to protect the hardware & avoid real problems, so if something fails to be properly connected it jumps with a max temp error. Hopefully that fixed your umo! If anything pops again make photos of the connection points, @dim3nsioneer has a lot of knowhow about umo so he might point you in the right direction (I only have umo+ so I'm less familiar with that board).
That UMO know-how of mine might be a bit rusty but I'm not the only one reading this forum...
Anyway, don't forget to open a new thread with a new issue.

Ultimakus Unlimitus Rex...
Actually, those bones are just decoration for the Ultimaker exhibition, aren't they?

I agree with @Meduza although I have installed a second extruder with 1.75mm diameter from the feeder to the nozzle on my UM2. A machine should be optimized for one diameter. However, if Ultimaker would change the diameter to 1.75mm one day, it should be out of good reasons.
If one wants to print 1.75mm filament on an UM2(+): there is an Olsson convertion kit and a 1.75mm version of the Matchless V3 block and nozzles from 3dSolex.

I guess there are easier ways to produce pages with Braille font...
However, it's a great possibility to customize physical objects for visually impaired people. And of course 3D printing is a great aid in the sense @lrodriguez reported.

I can't remember having cleaned the blue tape with alcohol back in my UMO days. The prints always adhered nicely to the tape but the tape not to the acryllic bed.

Has someone managed to create a new profile with current settings under Cura 2.3 beta?
btw: Installation of the beta damaged part of my 2.1.3 profiles... :(
But: cool new features to test; one can now even change acceleration and jerk per print line type...
-
No change here.
-
Same goes for a standard UM2 or UM2 Extended with an Olsson block.

What about PLA and high humidity? First overheat it and then let the print soak humid air.
But just be aware that pieces of such a material could be quite sharp.
-
@LePaul: I was talking about software (Cura) - I have the impression you are talking about hardware.
-
Since the new Cura beta has Dual Extrusion showing...and you can't make it go away...my money says the UM3 has it.
Bringing dual extrusion with Cura 2.3 means keeping a promise made by Ultimaker to UMO users back when the new Cura was introduced with single extrusion only.

There is nothing wrong with active cooling. Doesn't have to be the old UMO radial fan. A clever air guidance design would allow for using silent fans with less power and still getting a nice air stream over the stepper drivers.

An important part of making an Ultimaker Original more quiet are indeed the stepper drivers. On the the old Ultiboard 1.5.x one could easily exchange them. The current Ultiboard 2.x doesn't offer this possibility. Maybe reintroducing those sockets could be something for electronics R&D to make Ultimaker machines 'future proof'?
Ultimaker 3 release date ?

May I ask which other printer(s) were candidates?
