You are just teasing us!
Or are you serious? There's a few more important settings than just 2. Temperature maybe? Bed temp? fan? layer height?
Seriously - pictures are VERY helpful but you also need to point out what it is in the picture you don't like. This part looks great - the only problem I see is in the 3rd picture where you have heavy underextrusion for a few layers. You were probably getting a tangle on the spool for those layers.
70mm/sec is fine if you are at layer height .1mm but at .2mm that is 70*.2*.4nozzle or 5.6mm^3/sec which is pushing things near the limit. You need to print ABS a little hotter than usual to print that fast. Of course at .1mm layer that's fine. Why do you make me waste my time giving you 2 answers - why not tell me the layer height?
If you want the best possible quality and you aren't in a rush I recommend .1mm layer, 25mm/sec print speed. 25mm/sec print speed improves the quality drastically. If you are in a rush to get your print then .2mm layer 35mm/sec will look much better than .1mm layer 70mm/sec.
Please be gentle with guys like us. If i am not giving you enough info then please don't be aggressive in your replys.
i am posting up the setting i know. and as mentioned the setting are all default apart from the ones i have included.

i have had nothing but issues for about two months with the print quality. i have tried all different settings, i have reset the machine, i have resorted to older firm ware all in the hope to solve the issue
settings are standard for ABS
this example is 0.15 layer height
temps are all standard. 260 nozzle and 90 bed
any ideas
-
new firmware fixed it

Hi guys,
I wonder if anyone else has this problem. I can level the bed on my machine, then select a print. The machine heats up and starts but the nozzle on some occasions can be 1.5mm off the bed. It was set a papers thickness during the calibration
It's annoying as I have to calibrate the bed 2 maybe 3 times before it remembers.

Hi guys
I'm lookin for a camera I can set up so I can monitor the progress of prints remotely. Any advice? What do you use?

I am very frustrated with this... i purchased my machine on the fact that twin extrusion would be coming around the second quarter of the year. Maybe naughty of my re seller to claim such a time scale but even still i am starting to wonder if my money would have been better spent else where an i'm getting severely limited on what i can offer when competing businesses have twin extrusion capability.
if i run my business this way without ever drawing a line in the sand and aim for a completion date i would never win any business.
WE NEED A DATE ULTIMAKER!! or don't tempt us with the dream of twin head printing and wait until it is completed and works before announcing it.

Hi everyone,
My Name is Jamie. My company is Iconic Engineering Solutions and we have just purchased our first Ultimaker 2.
Machine is lovely and already making parts. I am sure there is a learning curve as with everything but we are enjoying the new tech.
