Maximum rectangle that can be printed on UM2 +

[Franny500 9]

This has probably been done to death, but what is the maximum rectangle/square you can print on an Ultimaker 2+?

Website states 223 x 223 but I've been reliably informed it isn't that by a someone looking to print the biggest possible rectangle/square with all first layer touching build-plate?

Hi Franny500,

I attached a Cura image for you which shows a bit what you were looking for.

The fact is that there are glass clips on the bed which take a way a few mm in the corners of the print bed. So the largest square will be a little bit smaller than for example the print I choose. I would advice to go no larger than 221x221 mm to reduce the risk of your printhead slamming against the sides. Other than that you are good to go!

Thanks Mumzel, will forware that image. Think they were slightly disgruntled with the fact the website states 223 x 223mm.

Thanks again fro your help
