Ultimaker 2 pausing halfway a print?


Recommended Posts

Posted · Ultimaker 2 pausing halfway a print?

Hello,

Recently we're having a problem printing a large part.

The print is started at the end of the day. When I come back the next morning it is just paused.

It's an 8 hour print. The first time it stopped after about 2 hours, the last time it was about 3 hours.

Does anyone have any clues what I could check, or what could be the problem?

Small parts work just like fine.

    Hi, and welcome to the forums :)

    Is it literally in pause-mode or did it just stop printing?

    Like; can you resume your print when you arrive at your Ultimaker?

    Have you checked the PauseAtZ plugin in Cura if that is not accidentally activated?

    What kind of 3D printer / Ultimaker do you have?

    Is it the same file or different files?

    If you use an Ultimaker Original, do you still print through USB?

    Lots of questions, but they should help isolating your issue.

    Thanks!

        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.
