Hi everybody, I just bought a new Ultimaker 2 Plus extended about a week ago. I love it a lot so far. However there is two problems that I have right now: (Sorry for my bad English)

Problem 1: It seems like there is a dis-uniform color in my Ultimaker Silver PLA filament. The color slightly shift after several layer.IMG_3068.thumb.JPG.b393631701b24224c568d1c09b6219ae.JPG

Problem 2: There is several random mark/scratch on my print. You can look at the red circles on the image IMG_3067.thumb.JPG.dc3cb6bfe0e73a70c7d8ad5433b91d75.JPG

I printed with the factory setting for temperature and

 

  • Layer height of 0.1mm
  • Speed at 40mm/s
  • Infill of 20%
  • Brim
  • Enable Retraction
  • Shell thickness of 1.2mm

 

Is there any way to fix the problem? or any suggest on changing the setting in Cura?

Thank you for your time

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
