Posted · Something weird from the noobverse

I was changing out filaments today. I had a roll of PVA already loaded. I was putting on a roll of PLA. When it tried to read the NFC chip, it said "Too many materials detected" and it would not let me select at all. Even when I got to the selection screen, it would kick me out to the warning.

So, shut down, rebooted a few times and nothing changed. So, I took the PVA roll off the spool holder, placed the PLA back on by itself and then it said "PVA not supported on AA Core" or something to that effect. Then it clicked over to seeing the PLA and moved on ahead.

I pulled the PLA spool off, replaced the PVA spool and then the PLA spool and it has been happily printing since.

But, that was strange.....weird even, I tells ya!!

Anybody else seen this? First time since January (Since I started printing) I've had that happen. Usually smooth operations on that front.

      • 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.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released

        Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released

        ArunC posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
