Try using the Prepare Print, Transfer to SD Card and disconnecting the printer from the computer all together. It's not really designed to be used as the controlling component while printing through USB, but rather, when printing from the SD card. If you are going to be just printing from the USB, then I would recommend disconnecting the UltiController.
Because Cura's settings can't be changed according to layer number, I use the Ulticontroller to manually keep the speed low for the first 5 or 6 layers, then I crank it up. When it's near the end, I slow it down again. This gives me nicer surfaces on top and bottom. I'll be sorely depressed if I can't use this expensive controller to adjust for limitations of the software. I'm getting really nice parts using that method.
The thing is, it worked perfect for what I've been doing for weeks. Then, the display started crashing the last week or so. Today, I came in and it was crashed without anything having been printed. Just sitting there doing nothing, it crashed. There is something very wrong with it.
