Received my UM2 a few days ago and have been absolutely loving it. It's quiet, fast and precise. I did have a few hurdles, first I had a heat bed issue when I first turned it on requiring me to take the build plate apart where I found a loose wire for the heat bed. After that I had an issue with the extruder, I noticed filament was not coming from the tip no matter how much I ran the extruder. Turns out the gear on the rear feeder ground into the filament. I retracted it, cut it off and fed it back and it has worked perfectly since.
I do have one question, I have run it over night once. I know it turns off the bed and hot end when it finishes and I have it set to turn lights off, but is it ok for it to stay on? It sounds like it keeps fans on even when not running.
