Hi, i have an ultimaker 2 that has a printing head needs to be replace and thats it. Everything is still functional and new considering its print time is not much even though i had it for more than two years. Anyone knows where i can sell it since i don't use it anymore? Thank you.

Hello, i want to turn on hot end fan for ultimaker 2 but don't know how to do it because i uninstall the heater block and buy a new one, so now i can't heat up the nozzle and thus the hot end fan can't be turnt on automatically by heating up the nozzle. Is there any way i can turn this hot end fan on by gcode or something? If so how do i run the gcode in ultimaker 2. Thank you.

Weird small hole inside the print
mnidannydang replied to mnidannydang's topic in Improve your 3D prints
Hi, i just got some improvement on the Benchy printing. I have done some changes and some improvement on the cooling system as well. What i have done so far: 1. Cleaning the Z axis as you said ( i have not applied the magnalube on the main Z axis yet still waiting for order from amazon to arrive) , just simply cleaning the dirt and debris from the main Z axis and light cleaning on two Z pole. 2. I have tightened the belt, clean the feeder. 3. I have changed the print speed to 40mm/s . 4. I have reduced the retraction length from 7.0mm to 5.0mm and reduced the retraction speed to 20mm/s . 5. More importantly, i added the external desktop fan ( i am not sure but this may have solved the caramelized problem i don't see any caramelized filament anymore.) Now, the Benchy looks much better than before, less small holes (there are still 2-3 small holes) , the printing looks much smoother even though there are some light strings between the benchy hull. Overall, this print is much better than before. Thank you for your help. I am not sure if there are any thing that i could do to improve this even more. -

Hi, i tried your recommended settings and the hole problem improved a lot but there are still some visible small hole. Moreover, i notice that on my print there are bumps like this is it because the filament is not properly cooled? I don't know. -

Weird small hole inside the print
mnidannydang replied to mnidannydang's topic in Improve your 3D prints
- So i increased travel speed to 200 mm/s. - By default i believe it is to be wall then infill last - I changed to random Z aligment and you know what? The small hole appeared matched the location where the next start point of new layer. So how should i fix this? - Should i play with jerk and acceleration control or should i just turn it off? Thanks. -

Here is the speeds for this sprint. More over should i play around print jerk and print acceleration to improve my print? Thanks -
Hi, i am using ultimaker 2 and trying to calibrate my ultimaker. I am using .8mm nozzle with .4 layer height but the results keep giving me this small hole in the print. What could be the possible problem here? Thank you.

Side fans does not work because of damaged wire
mnidannydang posted a topic in UltiMaker 3D printers
Hi, i broke the wire while changing the heater cartridge. Can i just solder these two wires together? Is there any other way since i have never done soldering. Thank you. -
Hi, everything was normal but when i tried to change the osson block with new nozzle and plug black in the Heat Cartridge and Heat sensor, it gave me Error 03. So will changing the heat cartridge fix this problem? Thanks.

So, i increased the temperature to 220, material flow rate to 120% and print speed to 80% and the model improved. -

Hi, should i increase the filament flow when printing? I read on some posted on google and it is said to be not advisable doing so. -

Hi, below is the picture and video for my problem when doing a print of the milk crate. Everything was going okay with the brim layer but the model is everywhere just like in the video. I was going slow 15ms and 210 celsius with 60 celsius bed. I have no idea why this is happening. I just did the atomic method to clean the left over from the print head. I am new to this please help me. Thank you so much for your time and guidance ! video-1650857685.zip UM2_Milk_Crate.3mf
