jimpeyton 0 Posted October 27, 2016 in cura 2.3 upgrade I have just updated Cura 2.1 to 2.3 and I can't find anywhere to change the nozzle diameter. Can't even find the manual for the upgrade to 2.3? ANY HELP OUT THERE? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nallath 534 Posted October 28, 2016 in cura 2.3 upgrade Changing the line width has almost the same effect as changing the nozzle width. If you have an um2 with olson block, just use a UM2+ machine. This allows you to change the nozzle in Cura. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucdrb 0 Posted October 28, 2016 in cura 2.3 upgrade Does this change fit all the parameters of an Ultimaker 2 ? I mean the pieces that are differents between the two printers (fan, motor ..) Thanks Luc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Luc From the software perspective there isn't that much difference between an um2 and um2+. As long as you don't do the firmware update (because then it will select the wrong firmware) all should be well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ugh.. This may not be the right place, but could we please get nozzle diameter adjustment added to the list of to do's? I'd appreciate the functionality, otherwise I'm stuck on 2.1.x Thanks.

Umm lets explain some basic stuff that might help. If you choose UM2 or UM2+, as long as you don't update the firmware, it doesn't matter. So you have a UM2 with Olsson? Choose UM2+ and DONT update the firmware. If you need to update the firmware just select UM2. Since you can have more than one machine settings this is very easy to do. Also @nallath since Ultimaker did sell officially a UM2 + Olsson upgrade, shouldn't Cura has a 'UM2 + Olsson'. Or just a check called 'Olsson Block Installed'. Or just a json duplicated that points to um2 firmware and enables the nozzle size. Anyway not my problem. But could be easier for users to understand how to proceed.

ahoeben 422 Posted November 1, 2016 in cura 2.3 upgrade (edited) Also @nallath since Ultimaker did sell officially a UM2 + Olsson upgrade, shouldn't Cura has a 'UM2 + Olsson'. Or just a check called 'Olsson Block Installed'. Or just a json duplicated that points to um2 firmware and enables the nozzle size. I added exactly that (an UM2 Olsson Block upgrade option) to Cura somewhere back in March or so, but PM decided against it (and to remove the code) because there were no resources to properly test the profiles needed with an upgraded UM2.

My problem is that the firmware has already been updated some time ago, and I'd rather not revert back. I like the idea of a Olsson block checkbox, but it seems that got nixed. No 2.3.x for me it seems. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just select UM2+ in Cura. Tadaa, it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
