  1. I'm selling my S5 Pro bundle and was wondering what needs to be done before it goes to new owner? Do I just do a factory reset and that's it?
  2. I'm selling my S5 Pro bundle because it hasn't been getting much use since purchased. Printer has been maintained as per Ultimaker PM schedules. I live in Ontario, Canada. Asking $12,000 (CND) for the entire bundle with local pickup (no shipments). I live near Niagara Falls (near by US accessible). Bundle includes: S5 Printer Material Station Air Manager 15 un-opened 2.85mm filament 8 additional print cores
  3. Since upgrading, have noticed that the display will not go into sleep mode. Stays on all the time when the printer is not in use?
  4. My problem was a faulty air manager. Wound up returning it to the dealer in exchange for a new one (after working with Ultimaker support to troubleshoot)
  5. Updated todaY to 5.8.1 - get the same humidification error
  6. I have been attempting to set up the cloud connect feature. I can input the IP address of the S5. When I to enter the S5 verification code, I the attached...
  7. Still having major issues with the PVA loading. Now it appears that there are gouges in the filament as it tries to load. Never reaches the extruder.
  8. Hi @SandervG, The filament is clipped at a 45 deg. It does exit the decoupler and then never reaches the feeder. I usually have to manually pull the filament out and feed it through the feeder, along with a few more error codes and power pulls...
  9. Did the hot pulls and swapped the core. Will have to have a look at the tension of the feeder. What seems strange is that without the material station loading is not an issue (not feeder problem).
  10. So,I have purchased 2 new spools of PVA from local dealer, and I dried my existing spools using the Ultimaker suggested process. One of the new spools loads OK. Print starts and runs for 4 hrs. The I get an error 56. Have to pull the power plug to clear the error and the I have to manually remove the filament as the unload feature is grayed out. That's another failed print. Next I try my dried filament. Run the load sequence and get Error 57. Pull power plug, try different bay, loads but doesn't reach extruder. During the priming process no material is extruded unless I apply force to move the filament along. This only works for a few seconds an another error 57 pops up. When reverting back to original S5 sans material station, PVA loads and prints OK. Sometimes I get message that the filament has run out? Seems like PVA is a real PIA!!
  11. I had a similar issue with the air handler. Had Ultimaker tech support help out. The only solution was to replace it under warranty. A defective unit was the tech support conclusion.
  12. I've given up on the material station! When I went back to the "old" S5 set up, the PVA material loaded without any issues! I think the material station is a good concept, but not ready for the real world! On a side note. I primarily print PLA. What are my options for other support materials besides PVA?
  13. I'm having a heck of a time with PVA printing properly. I have 2 spools of PVA that were recently purchased. I let them sit in the station for 3days. Most times the filament never reaches the print core. Is there a way to manually prime the filament?
