  1. Dustin's post in Carbon Nylon was marked as the answer   
    CF Nylons can only be printed with CC cores on the S series. 
    You need to make sure you have one installed or it wont let you print them
  2. Dustin's post in New Printer profile was marked as the answer   
    UltiMaker Cura is designed for FFF/FDM printers.. not resin printers..

    UltiMaker has a guide for printing with CPE

  4. Dustin's post in Liaison USB CURA vers JGMAKER magic was marked as the answer   
    It doesn't work because the code base to maintain it has not been updated in years.
    Changes in windows, linux and macos operating systems have happened  and UltiMaker Cura was never updated to compensate for the changes..
    Additionally 3rd party manufactures use dozens of different chipsets for communication with USB and UltiMaker Cura was never updated to interface with those.

    Lastly - UltiMaker has not made a new 3d printer with a USB client port on it since 2016.. and even back then UltiMaker realized its not a viable way of 3d printing and was already saying dont use it on their own printers.
    Because UltiMaker has not made a printer that used USB printing in so long they have not put any effort into updating USB support in UltiMaker Cura.
    Only other way updates for USB support would have been added is if the community contributed code updates for it.. which has not really happened either because everyone from the community that helps with the code,  knows using USB to print is a horrible idea.

    So - Your chances of USB working or not is a flip of a coin.. and even if one printer works different one might not.. and even if it works on one computer it might not on a different computer.
  5. Dustin's post in Ultimaker won't boot fully anymore (S3) was marked as the answer   
    Generally not a good idea to put the printer on a public wifi..
    You can do a firmware recovery guide here: https://support.ultimaker.com/s/article/1877434822572
     
    You very much can use the S3 in an offline mode as well.
    Sign in to UltiMaker Cura is not at all required.
     
    But, UltiMaker does not offer direct support via the community.
    I would recommend contacting UltiMaker Support for assistance

  7. Dustin's post in TPU Filament Issues was marked as the answer   
    TPU are not all the same, I would recommend doing some print tuning for the TPU itself first before attempting this.
  8. Dustin's post in What is the ± value after mechanical properties in the Ultimaker PLA Technical Data Sheet (TDS) was marked as the answer   
    its the standard or expected deviation value.

  10. Dustin's post in Differences between Teams and Workspace and why I just cannot make this work... was marked as the answer   
    Hi there,
    I am sorry to here you are having these issues.

    I am not able to locate a support case under your registered email address on the community.
    Can you please contact UltiMaker Support directly so we can look into this issue with you?
    Here: https://support.ultimaker.com/s/contactsupport

    UltiMaker does not provided direct support via the community.

    Edit: 
    I found your case, i will raise this to the Digital Factory Team
  11. Dustin's post in Does the Ultimaker S3 print head use a direct drive extruder? If not, can one be bought and installed? was marked as the answer   
    No, and no.

    All UltiMaker S series are Bowden extruders.
  12. Dustin's post in Are the CC and DD print cores compatible with the Ultimaker S3? was marked as the answer   
    I would point this discussion to official statements by BASF
    https://forward-am.com/material-portfolio/ultrafuse-filaments-for-fused-filaments-fabrication-fff/metal-filaments/ultrafuse-support-layer/
    Note the Q&A section at the bottom of the page.

    Short answer, the ceramic support material is not sold in North America due to IP issues they are working on.
    DD core's only purpose is for printing the ceramic material, I wouldn't advise doing this with the CC core.
    As the Ceramic isn't technically sold in North America, no reason for the DD core to be.

    But yes the CC+DD cores go together like AA+BB when printing Metal material.

    As for using the DD cores on the S3 - I believe they should work.
    But it's very much not recommended to print with Metal on the S3 due to a lack of an air manger - you REALLY want one.
    The material off-gas isn't good for you - per BASF's own TDS

    Thats not a supported change because its not an UltiMaker product.
     
  14. Dustin's post in Ultimaker 3 display backlight not working was marked as the answer   
    Looks like your display has gone bad.

    You will need to replace the OLED display module.
    Any UltiMaker reseller should be able to offer the replacement.
  15. Dustin's post in Ender 3 v2 Printing Issues - Overhang, how much is too much? was marked as the answer   
    rule of thumb only 45degree anything more needs supports.. but you can go further pending your printers configuration and cooling abilities etc.

    also purely flat surfaces like this yes always needs supports.
  16. Dustin's post in Ultimaker Material 1 is Missing was marked as the answer   
    Hi @archerjak
    Sorry for the delay in response. UltiMaker was close globally for the Christmas and New Years Holiday period. 
    This caused a bit of backlog for the support team to catchup on, not an excuse..its just what it is.

    I have notified the support manager and someone should be responding to your case shortly. 
  17. Dustin's post in What is the issue here with the printing?? was marked as the answer   
    I already answered this question but it was ignored.
    Your nozzle offset from the bed is set too close.
  18. Dustin's post in why cant i make something hollow? was marked as the answer   
    Well theres your issue, your model is VERY broken.. 
    Not sure why you got no error popup.. but those blue and purple dots at the bottom are very bad.

    Additionally the red surface on the top is odd.. this model appears to be inside out and corrupted.

  19. Dustin's post in Curving prints was marked as the answer   
    You should probably contact Creality about this issue.
    Thats a mechanical issue with your 3D printer.
  20. Dustin's post in No calienta el extrusor al imprimir mediante USB was marked as the answer   
    It sounds like your trying to print over a USB connection to your 3D printer?
    Im sorry its very much NOT recommend you do this with modern UltiMaker Cura on modern operating systems.

    USB support is considered legacy and not really maintained because there is so many issues introduced by trying to print over USB. 
     
  21. Dustin's post in S5 "Detected move outside of normal printer volume" was marked as the answer   
    Error 84 is your root cause and you wont fix other issues without addressing it first.
    Everything else is a red redharing.

    I don't have much more to share about that as UltiMaker is currently looking into that Error still.
    I would recommend contacting UltiMaker support directly as I mentioned earlier to resolve this issue.
  22. Dustin's post in Cura install error "unhandled exception in script" was marked as the answer   
    Sounds like your likely on a older version of windows?
     
    Make sure you are on supported version: https://support.ultimaker.com/s/article/1667337917781
  23. Dustin's post in Auto-switch to other extruder when material runs out was marked as the answer   
    Not supported.
  24. Dustin's post in Scaling an object based on material estimation was marked as the answer   
    Sadly I don't think that option exists.. 
    You can increase the material usage by increasing infill or shell counts..  Scaling the model might not be ideal most of the time

    Can I as what your use case is? Usually people ask how to make their prints use less...
  25. Dustin's post in Find out which user printed certain print job? was marked as the answer   
    If you goto print job history on the left side..
    hover over the icon or picture to the left of the name of the print job, it should show the users name.
