So used to my Ultimaker original., now "upgraded" to a UM2

It seems to preheat the bed and nozzle, you have to drill in to the maintenance screen and manual wind up the temp each time... is there no way of having a preset, like the UMO?

I have saved Custom material presets for PETG etc, can I rename these.

thanks

    No, there is no other way with the current firmware to do that. Just out of curiosity, why do you want to pre-heat? To save time while you work on slicing the part perhaps?

    To rename profiles, see the bottom of this page:

    Awsome, was really disappointed with this option missing, as the bed seems to take forever to heat up.

    Stunning full use of the display :)

    Don't get me wrong, the original screen menu was aimed at the average jo, which i'm not ;)

    I never understood why people wanted a preheat option, until I started printing ABS with the bed at 100 deg. This does take a while :)

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released
        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
