Yeah, just clicked the link in the first post and it does not have any download options for USB.

 

I find this to be a bit surprising as it assumes that everybody is on unlimited bandwidth.

 

I am on a metered connection for now and this prevents me from updating my systems. So, what is the difference between downloading the software to USB or direclty to the machine? Well, To use the machine itself and wifi, increases 'chatter' between machine and whatever is connected on the other end.

 

My basic procedure is this: If I am checking email or reading articles, I engage the wifi on the computer only. When not doing so, I disengage the wifi.

 

How do I know that there is chatter on the wifi when not using a browser? Well, I can see the activity happen on the wifi indicator on the wifi unit. Things are always pinging out, checking for this and that. It adds up. I do not stream movies. I do not watch TV on the internet. But I still struggle to stay under 50GB per month because of all the crap that is sent back and forth.

 

So, my question is whether I will be able to upgrade my machine operating systems via USB or not? If not, then I have to re-evaluate a few things because these machines are stuck in this time warp of non update and I do not think that is a good thing. I can still print, but have to put up with firmware that has a lot of issues. And, that limits the fun.

 

The downloadable update is only temporarily not available. Online update is still possible.

Hi,

 

I get the Information, that there is a new Firmware. So I had choose it and the Printer (UM3 E) will install it fine.

But now, he will never Print from USB? All Files, which will Print perfectly with the Firmware before, will get

the Information at start, that the Print will be finished in 0 h 0 min and 0 sec. The Printer will also don´t Print

the files.

What is wrong with it?

What can I do to correct it? I only Print from USB.

How can I roll back, if there is no Chance to corect it now? The Printer will only Show that the FW is the latest.

A factory-Reset don´t helped. The Problem is the same as before the factory-reset...

 

Hope, someone can help!

 

With regards, Digibike

 

Can you provide more details so that the problem can be understood better. To what version did you update, since this update is a special one, actually two updates are required.

The first update is the stable 4.3.96, after installation it should show a newer version in the stable menu 5.2.8. 

Then did you slice your models again with the latest Cura version or what version are you using?

Hi Alexander,

 

If you are downloading the files on a Windows machine it could be that you have "hide extension for known filenames enabled" and therefore you are not viewing the proper extension and it could be you saved it with the wrong extension. If i download the latest version now, my filenames are correct. Since you are doing a long print we can at least test the following without updating the printer yet:

 

- If you are running Windows, make sure you have "extensions turned on", see: http://kb.winzip.com/kb/entry/26/ or https://www.thewindowsclub.com/show-file-extensions-in-windows. 

- Then re-download the files from here: https://ultimaker.com/en/resources/23129-updating-the-firmware, check that the filenames are correct. 

 

Kind regards, 

 

Raymond.

Hi Alexander, 

 

From you screenshots it looks like you are behind some sort of proxy that requires a login ("http://10.10.10.10/login.html?redirect= "). Are you on a network that requires a login before using the internet, e.g when using your phone? 

 

And how did you proceed downloading the latest firmware for the UM3, i.e. what files did you put on the USB stick from where? 

 

Kind regards, 

 

Raymond.
