My Ultimaker 2+ was working awesome for 3-6 months or so...

Today I saw that you could plug your printer into your computer so I tried the printer port to my computer. I powered on the printer and it turned on successfully and then I hear POP and I instantly power it off. I try it again, it goes on and I hear the same sound, I turned it off and tried booting it with a SD card inside.

It just didn't turn on.

Now my Ultimaker 2+ is broken and won't turn on. I've unplugged all ports just incase of a fire or something.

Thanks in advance!

    I fixed my problem by taking apart my printer, and saw a loose ribbon cable. I put it in and it worked just like I just bought it. The cause to this is because of me carrying it upstairs.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (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.
